My daughter's bestfriend's 1 1/2 daughter was just told she can not have wheat, soy, corn and milk. Other then making her own is there a baking mix out there that she can use. She is not looking forward to this. Her daughter doesn't understand why she now can not have the things she use to be able to have. So any help would be wonderful. Thank you.

Several. King Arthur gluten-free flour mix comes to mind. I buy it at several grocery stores. They have recipes on their website.

A great site is Living Without, and they have a magazine too.

enjoy life brand has cookies, cereal bars, cereals, they are guaranteed top 10 or is it 11 now? Allergen free, we give them to our daughter who is celiac, and has anaphylactic milk and egg allergies and she loves them. The stuff is sweet, so we tend to break it in to portions

Is she allergic to nuts? Or eggs?

I have found that almond flour and coconut flour works very well. When you bake with these you can actually create things that are light and fluffy or very moist depending on how you use them. They are the 2 best flours I have worked with that don't end up being rock hard and tasting like cardboard. In my experience the potato, rice and soy flours often taste like cardboard or come out rock hard. Corn doesn't, but since she can't have that I think almond flour and coconut flour are your best bets.

I love the Glutino Sesame Pretzel Rings...but I don't buy them often. They are positively addicting.

Be careful with the pretzels. All of those have soy. There is only one GFSF pretzel I know off, the Wylde brand I believe.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long? DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule. This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are produced in response to. TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies. IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells. Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy. Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope. Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine? Were...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      I was tested for food allergies and environmental allergies about 7 months before I started taking Naltrexone, so I don't think that is the cause for me, but that's interesting! The main thing with the celiac thing that is throwing me off is these symptoms are lifelong, but I don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac...

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      Welcome to the forum, @Kara S! Warrior bread is a grain free bread product. Google it. There are commercial mixes available, I believe, Youtube videos and many recipes.

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.
