It's great to hear that you've taken matters into your own hands by investing in a bread machine and experimenting with gluten-free bread recipes. Finding a good gluten-free bread that is both affordable and enjoyable can indeed be a challenge, so it's wonderful that you've found success with the recipe you mentioned.
Using oat flour as a base for gluten-free bread is a popular choice, as it can provide a pleasant texture and flavor. And psyllium husk, as you mentioned, is a common magic ingredient in gluten-free baking. It helps add structure and mimic the elasticity typically provided by gluten in traditional bread recipes.
Simplifying the ingredients of the recipe to suit your preferences and dietary needs is a great idea. Experimenting and adapting recipes to your liking is part of the fun and creativity of baking. Just be mindful that making significant changes to the ingredients and proportions may impact the texture and taste of the final loaf, so it's often best to make gradual adjustments until you find the perfect balance.
Keep up the baking and enjoy the process of creating delicious gluten-free bread that smells and tastes like the real thing. Happy baking!

Isomalt is a sugar substitute that is commonly used in sugar-free and low-calorie products, including some flavors of Halls cough drops. Fortunately, isomalt is gluten-free, so it should be safe for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease to consume.

You bring up an excellent point regarding the lack of fortification in gluten-free food products. The reason why gluten-free products are not fortified with B vitamins is due to the varying nature of gluten-free ingredients. Unlike wheat flour, which is consistent in terms of nutrient content, gluten-free flours and ingredients can differ widely in their nutrient profile. As a result, fortifying gluten-free products with the correct amount of B vitamins can be challenging.
The fortification process requires manufacturers to add specific amounts of nutrients to their products, which can increase production costs. This cost increase may then be passed on to the consumers, which can make gluten-free products more expensive.
However, some gluten-free food manufacturers have started to fortify their products with B vitamins to meet the nutritional needs of people on a gluten-free diet. You can look for gluten-free products that are fortified with vitamins and minerals, such as B vitamins, iron, and calcium. Checking the food labels and ingredient lists can help you find such products.
If you're concerned about getting enough B vitamins on a gluten-free diet, you can also try to incorporate other gluten-free sources of B vitamins into your diet, such as fortified breakfast cereals, rice, quinoa, potatoes, and leafy green vegetables.

Trying to figure out my probability of having celiac disease
in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms

The diagnostic process for celiac disease can vary from person to person. In your case, the low Total IgA level might affect the accuracy of the IgA-based celiac tests, but the positive results for IgG-based tests suggest a possibility of celiac disease. The endoscopy will provide more definitive information. If the biopsy is negative for celiac disease, it could indicate non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or other conditions. Family history isn't always a reliable indicator. It's important to discuss the results and your symptoms with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive evaluation and proper diagnosis.
