Franz Gluten Free Bread

Franz makes gluten free bread. YES you read it right gluten free bread by Franz. I have been gluten free for more then 10 years now and have tried about every kind of bread there is to try I think. But there is NOTHING to compare to Franz. It is the most wonderful soft, tasty gluten free bread you have ever had. I buy it at the out let store here in Longview. I have not seen it in any major store as of yet though. It is $4.99 a loaf. They are also doing hamburger buns that I have not gotten to try yet. But when I do I will report it here. They are also suppose to be doing a gluten free cereal again have not been able to try it yet. Hope there is some where near you so you can try it also.

There's an outlet store not too far from me, in Spokane. I might have to check it out, but could you advise what the ingredients are? If it has corn syrup or corn starch, and probably potato starch I would have to pass.

I did not see any of those things in there. Would really be worth your time to go see it they carry it.

So last night I was able to try the hamburger buns for the first time. I will NEVER have to worry about getting buns again. I just found the best that there is. They are so soft and have such a great flavor. I would really really recommend these buns and bread for any one looking for great bread. You will not be sorry.

I was at a local store today, and they had some of this bread, and it was $0.90 off, for a total $5.69 (after the discount). Figured I'd splurge and try it, since it doesn't have corn starch or syrup or potato starch. They had 2 varieties, mountain white and a 7 grain, I got the mountain white. Here are the ingredients:

brown rice flour, water, tapioca flour, whole grain sorghum flour, agave syrup, eggs, xanthan gum, extra virgin olive oil, yeast, cultured brown rice flour, sea salt, whole grain amaranth, enzymes.

The package also has a symbol with words: Gluten Free Facility, which is nice!

It will be really nice to have something bread-like without having to bake it myself. I toasted a couple of slices as soon as I got home, the flavor is not bad. It will also be my first time testing amaranth -- and hopefully a good way to celebrate my 1 year of being gluten-free which was yesterday!

I also looked at the ingredients on the 7grain, and they're similar to the white except it also has teff (which I also haven't tested yet) and quinoa and maybe millet also.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms.  My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea.  But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you could share what other symptoms you are having?
