Yesterday my husband saw commercial for a new kind of gluten free bread made with something from DOW company. Today I found this:

If the bread in the video was made from their gluten-free ingredient it's look promising? The texture looked wonderful. :D

Where do we get it???

Looks encouraging.

The "Dow Chemical" part gives me the heebies; however, I'd get over it. I think.

I NEED that bread! That texture looks so wonderful.

Didn't the "scientists" come up with something similar in the 1960s to make wheat more moist too? And now 40-50 years later we are all becoming intolerant to it. Isn't anyone else concerned that in 40-50 years we will all become intolerant to our gluten free breads if they start chemically altering it? I would take serious caution here. Just sayin.

I want that bread too! OMG, my mouth is watering for it. I wonder if it will come as baguettes too. They were in the video. I feel teased now.

Do you eat xanthan gum? Just sayin. ;)

I can't tolerate xanthan gum. This is also way out of my interest zone

What do I have in common with a Panda bear? We both eat bamboo fiber. :blink:

The enjoy life bread, that is allergen safe, for my daughter has bamboo fiber in it. So, I guess a gluten free diet involves having an open mind and a willingness to try new things within reason. ;)

As I understand it, this should be the replacement for gums.

I'm with you. UNBELIEVABLE. No one bothers to question whether or not they SHOULD eat this stuff as long as it looks good. We have learned NOTHING. Sad.

Nobody is going to force you to eat it. You are a bit hypocritical if you are eating carboxymethyl cellulose in breads like Udi's though.

hate to tell you, but any food you see in a photo or on TV is usually 100% fake. I took photography, most of the time they use something that photographs better, not the real product.

Dear fellow celiacs, please don't blame the food ingredient suppliers for helping us to achieve gluten free bread that doesn't look and taste like c**p. We WANT to have bread like the one wheat protein can produce, but we can't, so let's just welcome the fibres, the emulsifiers, the hydrocolloids that allow us to have what we want, making rice and corn and other gluten free flours behave like wheat. I assure you, they are either harmless or very healthy ingredients like the insoluble fibres from bamboo. Please read more about them before you go about spreading unreasonable suspicion.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article
