Bob's Red Mill Pizza Crust Mix

For the first time I tried Bob's Red Mill Pizza Crust mix on Sunday night...woke up feeling bleh on Monday morning and had pain issues throughout the day, didn't sleep well last night and am really tired today. Seems like a glutening but the ONLY thing different or new that I've had in my diet over the last few days is one slice of pizza made from that mix. It was a white pizza with a little olive oil, mozzarella and some herbs/spices (from Penzeys and I've used the blend before so I doubt they are the problem.) The pizza pans are brand new and the pizza was cut with a knife that's been scrubbed/used previously with no problem for me so I doubt cross contamination can come into play. Has anyone else had a problem with this mix or other products from the same company? I'm not opening that bag of Bob's Red Mill Quinoa since I'm feeling a little leery at this point. Thanks!

What's IN the mix?

Check the label. Could be an ingredient is not agreeing with you. (do not assume CC okay?)

I use BRM products all the time without a problem, BUT I recently discovered that I feel yucky, get a stomach ache and have allergic responses when we use any BEAN flours in our baking. Hubs tried Garganzo bean flour in our bread recently and I felt awful from it.

I know that BRM mixes often contain Garbanzo and Garfava or Fava bean flours. I put 2 and 2 together and just took those out of my lineup to see if that's the culprit. (but I am pretty sure it is as I do not tolerate soybean or lupin bean flour either). I love the BiAglut corn pasta--but the lupin bean flour made my throat and mouth burn. I tried their crackers--same result. (Corn and I are fine so I know that's not it. :) )

On Sunday, I made cookies for hubs with BRM all-purpose mix--and I tasted a few. It did the exact same thing. Stomache ache, felt yucky and stuffy and burny in the mouth! I read the label---bean flours! That was enough to convince me.

Just suggesting here! :)

Could be the xanthan gum. I wasn't able to tolerate it either for along time until more healing could take place.

I can't use the BRM pizza dough mix, because it contains cane sugar. I have a diagnosed allergy to cane sugar which causes me palpitations and nausea. So you could be allergic to almost anything. OOOPS. Just noticed you used real mozzarella cheese on your pizza. What about dairy or casein? That's a common delayed reaction (IgG or IgA mediated) allergy, more common than cane sugar. I can use any of the Bob's Red Mill products which are clearly labeled gluten free (and don't contain any of other 6 allergens) without reaction.

I've used the pizza mix just last week without any problems, and I run towards

the very sensitive side of things. I second the xanthum gum or the mozzarella being the likely culprits, rather than cc in the BRM. I've NEVER had a problem with any of their products.

Some of us react to gluten free oats. I can't tolerate any BRM products because they process the oats in the same plant.

I'm the same way as raven. Can't tolerate because of the oats.

Thanks for all the replies...Ingredients are listed as: whole grain brown rice flour, potato starch, whole grain millet, whole grain sorghum flour, tapioca flour, potato flour, evaporated cane juice, xanthan gum, active dry yeast, sea salt, guar gum.

I'm 5 months into the gluten-free diet and I've only just started to introduce some replacement foods. God only knows what might have set me off. I'll have to compare this list of ingredients with a couple products I've tried successfully.

I don't think it was the cheese because in the last 3 weeks I've reintroduced dairy (cheddar and mozzarella) into my diet and haven't had a problem with them other than a little gut gurgle the first time as if my body was saying, "Hey, what is this?!?!" I intentionally didn't put a lot of cheese onto the pizza and only had one piece from one of the pizzas (I made two from the mix.)

I haven't had oats since before my diagnosis in August 2011 -- I have always detested oatmeal. *shudder* But I used to make my own granola and never seemed to have a problem.

I now understand what the doctor meant when she said the first 6-12 months is a steep learning curve in terms of the diet!

oh, it sure is! :rolleyes: It's a roller coaster ride. <_<

Millet is tough to digest. For me anyway.

Could be just a glitch. Try it again later?

I'll probably try it again in a few months just to see if I have the same reaction...

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
