  1. Thank you for mentioning that. My main reaction to gluten seems to be related to the skin and breaking out. So, I'll definitely take that under consideration when trying to figure out how to better supplement calcium. I'm trying to use lower oxalate and lower histamine greens like broccoli, baby bok choi, collards and Lacinto kale. Recently, I've been...
  2. I'm concerned about calcium. I don't think I'm getting enough especially since I ended up having to get off dairy when I went gluten free. However, if you have too much calcium, it can deposit in the wrong places and you can get thinks like bone spurs. I'd like find a decent supplement for that. Was thinking of looking into the algae based calcium supplements...
  3. Wanted to tell someone, I finally made an edible gluten free bread. It took me several hours to make and it didn't taste like what I was trying to make, but it did taste like a bread. Was looking all over for bread machine recipes and I ran across this one on the Internet: https://www.snapcalorie.com/recipes/gluten_free_oat_challah_bread_machine.html ...
  4. With that many foods removed from your diet, what do you eat? I also have histamine issues and migraines so that takes out certain trigger foods and high histamine vegetables. Have allergies to coconut and issues with nuts so those are out. I'm beginning to think I may have to remove dairy and some of the grains beyond wheat to get allergies under control...
  5. When they give you a blood test, there's a range they consider low to high from the results. It's not based on how much vitamin you're taking. My blood tests were low and then I took 5000 IU and they went too high on the blood test. I also get exposed to D from the sun and I live in a very sunny area and I get D in some foods I eat. I was very annoyed...
  6. This may make you feel better about cross-contamination: https://nationalceliac.org/celiac-disease-questions/do-i-need-new-designated-pans-plates-and-utensils/ https://theceliacscene.com/rethinking-cross-contamination-no-need-to-be-so-careful/ I use Tom's of Maine or a toothpaste that states it's gluten free. I have allergic reactions to some toothpastes...
  7. I've been making a lot of black bean brownies lately because it's one of the few gluten free dessert recipes that actually tastes palatable. I've also seen chocolate cake recipes with black beans. Someone mentioned a cookie recipe using lentils in place of flour. Just wondering if anyone's run across any tried and true recipes using beans, lentils or peas...
  8. I've seen a lot of recipes for chia pudding, so I decided to make some with chia, water, cocoa and honey. Didn't like the taste, so I added ground sunflower and ground pumpkin seed to it. It tasted okay, but came out more like frosting that pudding. I used to make pudding with tapioca starch, milk powder, water and sugar. It came out very good but I haven...
  9. Seems like when I find a gluten free product I like, the producer stops manufacturing it and then I have trouble finding a new gluten free source for it. What's worse, I've been contacting companies to ask if their products are gluten free and they don't even bother to respond. So, it's making it very hard to find safe replacements. I was buying teff flour...
  10. Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances. It's a web site but there's also an app.
  11. Open Food Facts is a free food database: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/discover There's an app to access it which is also free (with no in app commercials). You can use it to look up information about foods such as ingredients, Nova score (to help avoid ultra processed foods), environmental impact and nutritional scores, allergy related information and...
  12. You could try white willow bark, but make sure it's in a safe dosage range. Herbs aren't regulated the way prescriptions are. White willow bark works a lot like aspirin but is often milder on the stomach. I used to use Nature's Way white willow bark. I was told it was corn free at that time. Double check with the manufacturer to make sure it's free of...
  13. Not sure if they're that great but here are a few options: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eduven.cc.glutenfree&hl=en_US Only some of the recipes are accessible on Breville but they do have a search feature that includes gluten-free. https://play.google.com/store/search?q=breville&c=apps&hl=en_US
  14. I've been gluten free over a year. Most wheat flours have added vitamins like the various B vitamins. Since I'm no longer using wheat in my recipes, I feel like I'm not getting enough of the B vitamins anymore. I'm currently supplementing with a multivitamin or a B+ vitamin and I feel better when I take them. However, I was wondering if there were ingredients...
  15. I'm curious if anyone's tried pop sorghum to replace popped corn? Seems like a useful substitute. Just having trouble figuring out how to get more than just a few kernels to pop.
