Flours for the super sensitive

Are there any certified gluten-free flours, or flours produced in dedicated facilities, or flours that those of you who are super sensitive do not react to?

The more I read about Bob's Red Mill, the less inclined I am to trust them. Anthony's says they at least test to 20ppm, but I'd pay more for more assurances.

Bonus if the brand you like sells individual flours (especially tapioca, potato, rice), since I like to make my own blends

King Arthur makes some certified gluten free flours, but be careful they are not all certified.

When I used a lot of Bob’s Red Mill flours my antibody levels went up.  I’m a silent celiac so I can’t go by symptoms.  My antibody levels went back to normal when I switched to King Arthur.

Thanks! I forgot about King Arthur, I'll definitely have to try some. Unfortunately they don't look like they sell anything but blends? 

Anyone ever tried Iya Foods? Looks somewhat promising

      I would ask for a total IGA test (aka, Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and other names as well) to check for IGA deficiency. That test should always be ordered along with the TTG IGA. If someone is IGA deficient, their individual celiac IGA test scores will be artificially low which can result in false negatives. Make sure you are eating generous amounts of gluten leading up to any testing or diagnostic procedure for celiac disease to ensure validity of the results. 10g of gluten daily for a period of at least 2 weeks is what current guidelines are recommending. That's the amount of gluten found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread.

      There was not a total IGA test done, those were the only two ordered. I would say I was consuming a normal amount of gluten, I am not a huge bread or baked goods eater

      Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten in the weeks leading up to the blood draw for the antibody testing? And was there a Total IGA test done to test for IGA deficiency?

      Thank you for the reply. It was the TTG IGA that was within normal limits

      Welcome to the forum, @jlp1999! Which IGA test do you refer to as being normal? TTG-IGA? Total IGA? DGP-IGA? Yes, any positive on an IGA or an IGG test can be due to something other than celiac disease and this is especially true of weak positives. Villous atrophy can also be cause by other things besides celiac disease such as some medications, parasitic infections and even some foods (especially dairy from an intolerance to the dairy protein casein). But the likelihood of that being the case is much less than it being caused by celiac disease.
