Hi All

After wearing the IBS label for about 10 years, then having my gallbladder removed, in addition to having my asthma worsen and experiencing new symptoms...I feel better after being on the gluten free diet that my new doctor put me on about a week ago. THANK GOD! I haven't had stomach cramps in almost a week!

My birthday is this weekend and I plan on still staying on the gluten free diet; I feel better, might as well. Only thing is, my husband wants me to find a cake recipe, a gluten free one.

I would love a strawberry or lemon gluten free cake (with little to know dairy, as too much makes me sick). Do you all have any great recipe suggestions?

Thanks so much!

Sophie

Pamelas mixes are very good. :)

Hi Sophie and welcome :)

If you can get your hands on one, get the "Cause Your Special" Lemon Cake Mix. I made one for the first time last week and it was fantastic. The texture was good and the lemon flavor was just right--not fake at all and very light.

I frosted it with homemade buttercream frosting--my non gluten-free husband said it was the best gluten-free cake he's had yet :D

Have a nice birthday!!

My Grand-Aunt Helen used to make me her famous lemon-jello cake every year for my birthday. Now I need to try to duplicate it. :)

I think it was a basic old-fashioned butter pound cake that she would punch holes in (after it cooled) and drizzle with her brown sugar glaze. The topping was made with a package of lemon jello dissolved in 1 c boiling water with a tablespoon of butter, a tsp. of lemon extract and 3/4 c brown sugar. I think she may have used rum extract in there somewhere,too (or maybe some rum in the cake.) Pour over the top of the cake, a little at a time, until it soaks the glaze all in. Refrigerate just until set.

Anyone has a good Gluten-free pound cake recipe? I NEED to make this now.

I ran across this Almond Pound cake the other day buy I haven't tried it. It takes 2 cups almond flour in case you might be interested.

      Yes, some people with Celiac do react to quinoa.  I know i do.  Apparently, two different "breeds" of quinoa can stimulate the immune system. Read here... Variable activation of immune response by quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) prolamins in celiac disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22760575/#:~:text=Cultivars Ayacuchana and Pasankalla stimulated,for patients with celiac disease. And some of us react to corn (maize) as well. Maize prolamins could induce a gluten-like cellular immune response in some celiac disease patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24152750/   P.S. @Brook G have you thought about getting a genetic test done for known Celiac genes?

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread... QUINOA

      Thanks for the additional information. I was thinking of asking you if your daughter was taking methylated vitamins since she has the MTHFR gene but you beat me to it. To answer the question you posed in your original post, as I explained, celiac disease does not damage the colon but the lining of the small bowel. If the damage is pronounced enough and the doc doing it is experienced, yes, the damage done to the lining of the small bowel can be spotted with the naked eye.

      I could not locate the correct Gary Brecka video where he explains the methylation process and specifically states things about how people with the MTRR homozygous gene mutation are known to suffer from heartburn due to a weakened valve/sphincter where the esophagus and the stomach connect.  My brother had the youtube video sent to him from 10x health which is probably why I cannot locate it.     I will have read up on mast cell activation.  I do not know anything about it.  Tums is my preferred gerd treatment.  I always figured a little extra calcium could not hurt me.

      Trents: Due to a genetic mutation, my daughter has inherited from both parents she cannot process the Folic Acid provided in the fortified American grains.   An MD told her to avoid eating fortified grains.   My daughter makes the assumption that unless she makes the food item, that the baker used a fortified grain so she has been limiting her gluten intake since 2020.   Her Psychiatrist was who tested her for MTHFR gene issue because she suffers from depression and severe anxiety. The Psychatrist also instructed my daughter to supplement with a methylated version of folate once she knew my daughter was homozygous, because the methylated version bypasses the mutated gene step so her body can absorb it.  Low folate absorption impacts serotonin and dopamine production.  My husband and I also both have two other homozygous gene mutations that interfere with vitamin absorption: MTRR and VDR taq.  The first interferes with B-12 absorption which requires us to take a methylated B-12 vitamin and the second with Vitamin D absorption so we have to take higher doses to stay within normal levels.   My brother, who has the exact same gene mutations, went through 10x health genetic testing for vitamin supplements (paid by his employer) and received a huge report saying the same things about which types of supplements had to be taken.  Gary Brecka does videos on how these gene mutations impact the vitamin absorption pathways.       If my brother had not gotten his testing through work, he would never would have started his supplement journey.  His testing is what triggered my getting functional health testing that tested similar biomarkers to his.  Again the celiac testing was an add-on test that I did off the cuff.
