I know that a lot of super sensitives have trouble with Bob's Red Mill Products. Has anyone had success with Ener-G rice flour, potato starch, etc? I am trying to dodge buying a heavy duty grinder to make my own. BRM seems to give me trouble. Ener-G's web site is impressive re precautions and dedicated facility. Any super sensitives using it?

I use EnerG Tapioca and EnerG potato starch without problems. I also do NOT tolerate BRM products.

Do you consider yourself as super sensitive? Just wanted to confirm that. Sometimes people with normal sensitivity pop onto super sensitive topics. Can get a little confusing. I have just started on this category and I do not know who's who sometimes.

Yep, I'm very sensitive :)

I'm still trying to figure out just how sensitive I am. I seem to be trending to more sensitive than average, but not super sensitive as some discribe. I do find their advice very helpful when I do seem to be having problems figuring out the cause of something bothering me. That said, I DO NOT tolerate BRM anything. I have been using Ener G products without any problems whatsoever!

Thanks Roda, for your input. I think I may be in the same boat as you, kind of a 'tweener. Like you, I look towards the super sensitives when trying to figure things out. I quess we have all heard of the expression, "canary in a coal mine". If something is tolerated by super sensititives, chances are it'll work for people who aren't quite super sensitive. Don't be offended, super sensitives, you are more than just canaries to us. You are wonderful, beautiful, very brave super canaries!

I'm not offended. I'm glad to be appreciated. I can't tolerate that brand, but you know that I am crazy sensitive. Maybe you'll be able to.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Theresa,  A few of my friends have your same story. You may be right about barley, etc.  18 years ago at a football game while clapping, suddenly my 4th finger was in agony.  It looked like a vein had burst. It was blue for a couple hours, then disappeared.  Finally realized it happened every time when drinking beer.  It's occurred several times over the years when opening a jar, lifting something that was a bit heavy, holding on to tight to something.  Immediate icing stops the pain and discoloration.  Now avoiding wheat in the US, it rarely happens.  Thanks for the reminder.  Will have Entero Labs run another test. Unfortunately they've relocated to Switzerland/Greece.

      Blood results

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.
