Food Question

Having recently diagnosed with gluten sensitivity, I began a gluten free diet 9 days ago. I have been a vegetarian for 30 years and a vegan for 7. New diet does pose somewhat of a challenge and I find that looking for baked products is difficult. So many of the products have white rice flour, potato flour, tapioca starch and other things that I have not eaten in years due to eating mostly whole grain, organic items.

Veggies and protein (soy, beans) are not much of a problem when cooking at home. I eat plently of beans and love veggies. The large problem seems to be with the baked goods. Does anyone know of any seemingly more healthy products. Since I am very new to this, I am quite sure that I simply don't know where to look.

Also what about vinegar in things. I use brown rice vinegar at home, but not sure what type of vinegar is used when we are out.

I am sure that I will have many, many questions in the coming weeks, months. Thank you for help.

Marty

You may need to bake your own gluten-free items if you're avoiding things like rice flour and tapioca starch. :-( But it's not really that hard, aside from sandwhich bread, which I haven't even attempted. ;-)

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
