I posted a week ago or so while I was waiting for my biopsy results to come back. I am negative for celiac, but felt great gluten free and also had my Antigliadin IGG come back positive. So, I went to my allergist and I have a major wheat and corn allergy. Between the two I feel like there is not a whole lot I can eat. As you know, so much gluten free stuff has corn starch or other corn derivative as a filler. Anyone have any advise or suggestions? I don't want to be on Atkins forever
Wellsfamily,
I know this is an old post but no one else responded.
Gluten free products do contain corn in a lot of cases. We are gluten-free, CF, SF and DF. And the ones I have found that I enjoy are Sami's bakery millet and flax bread. You might be able to get your healthfood store to carry this. Also, Anna's bread mix is very good. I just ordered a huge lot of it and made it in the oven yesterday as opposed to the bread machine. I have tried Anna's pumpkin bread and banana bread too and found it to be good.
Corn is very high in mold and that is why a lot of people are allergic. Even though I don't react to corn like I used to, I try to avoid it just because of its mold content and the fact that most corn is now a GMO food.
www.123glutenfree.com has AWESOME brownie and cake mixes. These taste just like gluten containing foods. I have served them at our family get togethers and no one notices.
Namaste has a great pancake mix. I use almond milk and I use the Earth Balance dairy free butter to put on top. YUM! Their pizza dough mix is good too.
I get cereals for my kids that are made from rice. I am always very careful to not choose anything with corn. I have been unable to find pretzels that didn't contain corn. So I don't buy them much.
Good luck!
