I get mine from honeyville Open Original Shared Link

I noticed that place sells oat and wheat products. Do you know if they use separate facilities or production lines for their gluten free products? I couldn't find it on their website.

I'll also look into the other place, thank-you.

I'm not sure, sorry. I do know that I ordered the 25lbs and it came straight from the almond flour supplier Hughson Nut but I've been so busy I haven't looked them up yet. We've always seemed to do fine with the almond flour but we went without for a while because of cost. We've been eating it now for a week and my daughter's rash is popping up so I'm not sure now. We've been to so many holiday things lately it's hard to say, I'm going to give it a little longer and see. It could all just be coincidence, me and my other daughter don't seem to be reacting and usually we all react to the same things. My inlaws paid for it so I would feel terrible if we couldn't eat it! I'll let you know what happens! I do know that we had obvious reactions from the bob's red mill almond flour.

Sounds confusing. This can be so hard to figure out. Be sure to consider how much of it the various family members are eating. I hope you get it sorted out soon.

I'm not super sensitive but my son is definitely on that spectrum. We are completely grain free as well (GAPS diet). I eat leftovers from dinner a lot, and the kids rely heavily on eggs. Winter squash/egg/nut butter soufflees and crepes are a go to. Applesauce (homemade) can sub for the squash. Sausage (basically ground pork that we season ourselves) is a good breakfast option, too. Then there is always soup! Smoothies work - we put yogurt or dairy kefir in ours. In your shoes I might not want to do that since without the dairy for fat and protein it would be really high sugar.

Thanks for the advice :) We have been definitely eating more of it then normal with the holidays, lots of baking! It may be one of those things we can tolerate a little but not a lot of. Yesterday I made a lot with almond flour and I definitely noticed something with me and my oldest but not so much with our youngest who is usually the more sensitive one but...she doesn't typically go for much baked stuff whereas my oldest scarfs it down! After the holidays I'm just going to try using it a little and see how that goes cause, like I said before, we didn't seem to have issues in the past. But again, I know sometimes you don't notice you're reacting until you don't eat it for a while and then try it again. I'm not really new to gluten free but I'm fairly new to figuring out our sensitivities...can be very confusing! :P

Today: apple cinnamon almond meal muffins. Some flour, but mostly nuts, so it was fairly balanced carbs/proteins/ fats. Of course, the inlaws are over, and so two dozen muffins didn't last past lunch.

I have been reacting to Chex cereals. It is the only thing that I have added besides plain black Twinings tea. I emailed the company who makes the Chex. They are not even made on dedicated equipment. WTH? They wash/sanitize between runnings but I don't want to eat anything that they make wheat chex on. Too many chances for CC.

With that said, what do other super sensitives have for breakfast?

Thanks!

I can so relate! I react to Chex cereals too. And even Glutino. Every time I try them I get my usual gluten reactions. It's so frastraing... <_<

I have a few more ideas for breakfast for you.

1. Pocono - Cream of Buckwheat cereal (found at Wholefoods) with any berries and silk almond milk.

2. Ancient Harvest Traditional Qunioa cooked with any berries and silk almond milk.

3. Arrowhead Mills Buckwheat Flakes ( This is the only processed gluten free cereal I can eat. I can eat these once or twice a week, but I don't push it:)) with silk almond milk and peaches or berries

4. eggs with Oscar mayor bacon

5. Omelette with cheese, ham and tomatoes

6. Quick Meal- Fruit, Boost or a Lara Bar

I know there's not a lot of options for breakfast, but I hope this helps. :)

Today I got my blender out and I ground up a bag of brown rice. I use to really enjoy Cream Of Rice hot cereal but quit eating it when I found out that it was processed on the same lines as Cream of Wheat. I made some with apple juice and added some apples and cinnamon to it. It was delish! Just an idea for someone else!

I think you'll really like the Pocono Cream of Buckwheat cereal. It's a hot cereal and it reminds me so much of Cream of Rice and Cream of Wheat. It's completely gluten free. I eat this a lot and it's so good. :)

I love Glutenfreeda's oatmeal with a spoonful of peanut butter and a piece of fruit. Very filling and keeps me going until lunchtime.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By Judy M · Posted

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
