    This is a very good question--I have the opposite problem--I want to figure out how I can substitute for quinoa when a recipe calls for it, and substitute for potato starch and bean fours. I've heard cornstarch and arrowroot are interchangeable, but I am no expert. Sorry.

    The most I've ever done is a 10K but I love, love running. I had to stop over the winter when I just got really run down and started having more serious issues with gluten intolerance and food allergies. It was like all my strength just got totally zapped from me. Aside from doing my best to avoid further aggravation of my immune system I'm aiming to get...

    Chirunner, I tried using some of those recipes and replacing the eggs--no luck! So I sold the book to a used bookstore. I'm having better luck now with making egg-free, gluten-free cookies, using coconut flour, tapioca starch, and sweet rice flour (two parts coconut, two parts tapioca, one part sweet rice and one part buckwheat). They have to be really...

    Thanks LoriG, Allergies are an immune response, and of course if your immune system is under attack the adrenals are working overtime. I'm on the path now of trying to remove as many aggravations to my immune system as possible and give myself a chance....

    As I read through this, it keeps making more and more sense....A couple hours after eating gluten the mental symptoms are as follows: social anxiety, slight dizziness, "down" feeling, both wired and tired at the same time, my inner critic gets really super loud... I tested negative for celiac disease but was dx gluten intolerant and told to eliminate it...

    Georgie, Thanks for that link. I don't think that's what I have since my thyroid is fine. I have a relative with Hashimoto's, so I forwarded the link to them. I believe this person is an undiagnosed celiac. With adrenals, even the subclinical can feel reeeeeaaallly bad....

    How terrible for your cousin! I found out through standard food allergy testing. Coconut milk--I'll try that. I am starting with recipes that don't call for eggs (from Gluten Free Vegan by Susan O'Brien and Gluten Free Kitchen by Robin Ryberg) but I need to replace some of the flours (no cornstarch, potato starch, or bean flours for me). I'd also...

    I'm new and would also like to learn more about coconut flour. I can't have eggs at all, and don't do so great with bean flours or potato or corn starch. If I could figure out what proportions of rice flour, coconut flour, and perhaps arrowroot...or quinoa...or millet...or sweet rice flour....any combination of these (!) that I could use to substitute...

    Thanks for your support here.... I'm still waiting; and this is a three-day weekend so I'm hoping that I get my results in the mail on Tuesday. In the meantime, I am eating gluten, and I am so bleeping tired and even a bit weepy. My appointment with the gastroenterologist is Feb. 27. That's not the biopsy, that is just the first appointment. I'm...

    This is a very interesting and informative thread. Thanks I have a question. I have had adrenal issues for a long time--eventually the bovine adrenal cortex quit working for me and I was still very tired. I was prescribed bio-identical cortisol, 5mg three times per day. I have been taking it for a week. Normally, whenever I would resume or...

    Thanks. I'm getting the full panel this time. I'm fairly certain it will lead to scheduling the biopsy. I feel way worse after re-introducing gluten than I felt while I was on it. I don't think I can do this much longer. I'd rather stay in bed Hope I can get that done as soon as possible. I'd like to stop eating gluten after the blood test, but I won't...

    Thank you for the links. I will print them out and show them to Dr.

    I am new here. There is a lot of discussion on celiac and gluten intolerance having a connection to autoimmune thyroid disease. I am wondering about the connection to autoimmune adrenal issues--it just makes sense! Take a look at this link if you wish. Open Original Shared Link It discusses adrenocorticol autoantibodies and 21-hydrozy enzymes. ...

    Hello, I'm new, and sorry if my post is redundant. I am getting the celiac panel blood test tomorrow. My doctor, who is generally very well informed and up to date, said I don't have to be eating gluten before the test. I was IgA-gliadin positive four years ago, but due to all-around ignorance, I was not given the rest of the panel. I was gluten...
