  1. This was one I tried w/o issues using gluten-free flour. It gets confusing the 121 cup for cup. Especially the price of it. But I love using the make your own mixes of gluten-free flours potato starch such as this to make it go further https://theloopywhisk.com/2021/09/23/homemade-gluten-free-flour-blend/ Heres a recipe stating 1:1 https://chefalina.com/gluten...
  2. That's an idea. I have found good chocolate chip recipes that mimic tates cookies or other chocolate chip cookies with gluten-free for without an issue. I have seen recipes from chef Alina looping whisk etc that have gluten-free flour but they are trial and error. I guess I will have to mix and match. I made my own flour using flax meal corn flour potato...
  3. I have seen numerous gluten-free flours in stores then 1to1 cup substitute and numerous gluten-free recipes from gluten-free cooking websites that have great recipes but even making my own blend it seems like its not easy to get a fool proof flour substitute for cookies, cakes. I know bread is a bit different but this is more of a science to figure out. I...
  4. Checked into Gluten free in Aruba FB groups on places to safely eat so I hope I have a good experience in a few weeks in Aruba.
  5. 1st trip completed LBI in New Jersey. Found gluten-free restaurants and took gluten-free snacks like Snyder pretzels, Tates cookies, Veggie Stix, made my own gluten-free granola and took Silk almond yogurt. Dinner Steak at a gluten-free place, Salad at another place and Burgers from a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. So far so good. I am researching in Aruba...
  6. I haven't taken blood test for deficiencies yet since self diagnosed but I started a Multi vitamin from reading consumerlabs Nature Made Multivitamin For Her 50+ with No Iron, Womens Multivitamin for Daily Nutritional Support, Multivitamin is actually good for men compared to the mens version since im 47 I figured this should be ok. I also just started taking...
  7. I have been on this gluten-free journey a few months now and I work in a deli so I'm around gluten all day. I noticed sometimes once a day my eyes tear as if I am peeling onions. I think it is an allergy to gluten. Anything to take for this issue? I heard it might be low vitamin so I started to take a multi vitamin that I found from consumerlabs and started...
  8. I know I haven't been tested for Celiac yet. But If I took a blood test would they be able to say what I am deficient in as far as vitamins and minerals so I can see what supplements to take or is it not that easy to figure out what is needed to balance out vitamins/minerals.
  9. Try a multivitamin maybe it will cover what you are deficient in.
  10. Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?
  11. I have not made my own juices but have made my own granola copycat recipe from Trader Joes Turmeric ginger granola. Have you made your own juices? blending vs cold pressed what is better?
  12. There's a company called thistle subscription based food completely gluten free plant based. They offer juices, juice shots. I was wondering has anyone made their own juices shots for anti inflammatory gut healthy juices etc?
  13. If you prepare gluten free and eat gluten free but feel stomach pains hours later what makes it gluten contamination vs. something else you may have ate etc? anything to differentiate in symptoms? Thanks
  14. I also read this which some recommended as well: NASPGHAN recommends eating roughly 2 servings of gluten, equivalent to 2 slices of wheat-based bread, daily for 6-8 weeks prior to testing.
  15. My dr. stated to eat gluten for 4 weeks before bloodtest. I feel so much better w/o gluten and was going to wait until after the summer vacation but hesitating since reading the antibodies might go away etc. and if I can get it over with before hand especially before daughters graduation next month and before summer might be nice. Any tips besides eating...
  16. He said it helped him which is why I was curious if you took it. I agree not for the challenge.
  17. I have read GliadinX is helpful have you taken that when concerned of cross contamination eating out etc? I hope the 4 weeks I gluten myself for this test I can handle my daily lifestyle without major issues.
  18. I found a diy flour blend 500 g (2 ¾ cups + 2 tbsp) white rice flour (make sure that it's finely ground) 300 g (1 ¾ cups + 1 tbsp) potato starch (note that this is different from potato flour) 200 g (1 ⅓ cups) corn flour (US)/maize flour (UK) I see recipes that say gluten-free flour blend so I guess I can use something like this and...
  19. I have cgf oat flour so I should buy potato or tapioca flour mixed together to make "flour" is there a recipe you use to stretch the for. Does it come out to 1:1 when replacing regular flour? Also xanthum gun is that good for you or is there a replacement? There a vegan gluten-free granola bar I purchase locally that I'm trying to replicate I think it's no...
  20. Thanks dining out is going to be the hardest bc they can claim they handle it gluten-free but do they really? I work in food industry and I can imagine but I have a few places I did take it that are gluten-free without issues so I am slowly finding my go to places. When I go in vacation this summer it will be a task. It going to Aruba might be more difficult...
  21. Thanks for the well thought out answer. I was wondering if I needed to take multi vitamins as I'm on elimination diet for the summer until I delve into blood test. It appears 8 weeks before would be 2 months before my blood test. I will see when I schedule. I agree my final gluten farewell I don't want to over indulge either during as I have to work and didn...
  22. My doctor stated 4 slices of whole wheat bread for 4 weeks then take the blood work to diagnose. So I guess this is what I have to look forward to in the fall not to ruin summer plans with my family. I'm still confused on what the diagnose would tell me from the blood work. If it says Im gluten sensitive then I already know that from elimination diet and...
