Is it gluten fee-sourdough bread


Bindy

I have been diagnosed as Gluten Sensitive, is there such a thing? Â I do not have Sprue. Also I was told I could have regular sourdough bread as the fermentation alters the reaction in your body. Is this true, as I've spent a fortune finding a good bread that's not dense, or too thin.  Looking for a bread like Texas Toast, to make French Toast.  I have been
diagnosed as Lactose Intolerant.
Thanks much,
Bindy

Hi Bindy,

Welcome! Sourdough bread made from regular flour as gluten in it, therefore being gluten sensitive you might react to it. I would suggest looking around for a sourdough bread that is made from gluten free flour. Personally, I would look around for a gluten free sourdough bread.

Who told you this?  This does not sound right. If you have celiac, any gluten will harm your body whether it is fermented or not. If you are not celiac, gluten will not harm your body but it might make you not feel well.

Whoever told you that, didn't even read the first part of that Italian study correctly.  Lol

because you don't have Celiac, I suppose you can eat what you like and see how you feel?

Here's an explanation -from Gluten Free .watchdog that she has made public 

"NOTE: The study referenced in this write-up is a 2011 study by researchers Greco et al. What the researchers actually report:When two study participants ate baked goods made using extensively hydrolyzed flour (gluten reduced 97% and containing 2,480 ppm gluten) no clinical complaints were reported BUT they developed SUBTOTAL ATROPHY of their intestinal mucosa. In other words (and not surprisingly) these products are NOT safe for people with celiac disease. The researchers write, "Two celiac disease patients consumed 200 g of S1BG that contained ~ 2480 +/- 86 ppm of residual gluten. They had no clinical complaints during the 60 days. One showed increased antibodies and both showed increased CD3 and gamma-delta intraepithelial lymphocytes with subtotal atrophy after challenge.""

This applies to people with Celiac Disease.  People who refrain from eating gluten for other reasons will not get the raised antibodies or intestinal damage of Celiac Disease.

      I never eat oats, haven't for years because of the possible cross contamination. I know the difference in my.body's reaction to the big 3 vs corn or rice. Vomiting was always  an issue if I wasn't careful.with wheat, rye or barley but rhe only issue I had with corn was the dermatitis herpetiformis.  I'm not a dermatologist but I know how certain foods affect me and I just hope my story can offer others an alternative hope to try that isn't dangerous to their health. As for me... I'm grain free LOL and loving the freedom from dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hi, Everyone, My husband and I are contemplating an RCL cruise and would like to hear from anyone who has sailed on RCL. Please do not post information on other cruise lines. We are either going on Celebrity (which we've sailed many times and know is good—we don't need any information) or Royal Caribbean. So, RCL only, please, and only those who have already sailed. Thanks!

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      There are third party home test kits for celiac disease that do not involve needles. They use a cheek swab I believe. The cost is a little over $100 USD I believe for most of them.  A 7 week "gluten challenge" should be more than enough. The absolute minimum according to guidelines is 2 weeks but I would not cut it that close. I usually recommend four weeks but the more the better in so far as ensuring valid testing. "My daughter was told by her doctor to eliminate american grains due to the fortifying process." What's this about? Are you referring to the vitamins and minerals added to processed cereal grain products in the USA? Is this supposed to be harmful according to this doctor? What kind of doctor is this? MD? Naturopath? What is interesting is that when people go gluten free they often need to supplement with vitamins and minerals to compensate for the loss of vitamins and minerals they were getting in wheat products. Most gluten free facsimile flours are nutritionally bankrupt.  Yes, there is a significant statistical correlation between Hashimotos and celiac disease. Autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. Omeprazole and other PPI meds are concerning when used long term in that they raise gut PH (lower acidity) and inhibit the digestion and assimilation of nutrients. They are some of the most over prescribed and under monitored meds in all of pharmacology. I was on Omeprazole for years and weaned myself off it. It was a real fight because of rebound. I bridged with TUMS which is much better option when used for spot coverage. The interesting thing is, a lot of GERD is actually caused by hypoacidity rather than hyperacidity. If you have a lot of GERD you might want to look into MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)/histamine intolerance which is another medical problem very common in the celiac community.
