Italian Chestnut Flour?

Yesterday, I bought a gluten free cake mix that contains Italian Chestnut Flour. The store also had bags of this flour available. It's kinda pricey, so I didn't buy the bag of the flour, but the cake mix looked very interesting. It's by Dowd and Rogers. Has anyone heard of or used this brand or this flour? I'm very curious about it! :blink:

Yes, and I've heard it is amazing. The only downside, from what I understand, is that it doesn't keep long, so you'd have to use it up quick. But I'd love to try it sometime.

This is my very favorite cake mix! The chestnut flour adds a unique and very tasty flavor...much different than the standard rice flour mix. They last as long as any other cake mix I have had but I keep them in the fridge between feedings and let them come to room temp before devouring. The chocolate mix, coupled with vanilla buttercream frosting, are heavenly. I have even brought these to work for the gluten eaters and got very favorable remarks back.

      Does High DGP IGA Typically Mean Celiac?

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
