I know that a lot of super sensitives have trouble with Bob's Red Mill Products. Has anyone had success with Ener-G rice flour, potato starch, etc? I am trying to dodge buying a heavy duty grinder to make my own. BRM seems to give me trouble. Ener-G's web site is impressive re precautions and dedicated facility. Any super sensitives using it?

I use EnerG Tapioca and EnerG potato starch without problems. I also do NOT tolerate BRM products.

I've been using Ener-g products for 6 years now--no problems.

Do you consider yourself as super sensitive? Just wanted to confirm that. Sometimes people with normal sensitivity pop onto super sensitive topics. Can get a little confusing. I have just started on this category and I do not know who's who sometimes.

Yep, I'm very sensitive :)

I'm still trying to figure out just how sensitive I am. I seem to be trending to more sensitive than average, but not super sensitive as some discribe. I do find their advice very helpful when I do seem to be having problems figuring out the cause of something bothering me. That said, I DO NOT tolerate BRM anything. I have been using Ener G products without any problems whatsoever!

Thanks Roda, for your input. I think I may be in the same boat as you, kind of a 'tweener. Like you, I look towards the super sensitives when trying to figure things out. I quess we have all heard of the expression, "canary in a coal mine". If something is tolerated by super sensititives, chances are it'll work for people who aren't quite super sensitive. Don't be offended, super sensitives, you are more than just canaries to us. You are wonderful, beautiful, very brave super canaries!

I'm not offended. I'm glad to be appreciated. I can't tolerate that brand, but you know that I am crazy sensitive. Maybe you'll be able to.

      I’m so confused…

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For my first couple of years after discovering my celiac disease I also had to avoid cow's milk/casein and eggs, as well as other things, but could tolerate duck eggs and sheep and goat's milk products. I'm not sure if you've tried those, but it could be worth testing them out.

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing?   Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement?   The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.   Magnesium deficiency symptoms and Thiamine deficiency symptoms both include gas and bloating.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms also include loss of appetite and fatigue.   My gas and bloating resolved rather quickly when I took Benfotiamine (a form of thiamine shown to promote intestinal healing) and Magnesium Glycinate in addition to my B 50 Complex (all twice a day plus the following...).   I found Magnesium L-Threonate or Magnesium Taurate are better when taken with a form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl dusulfide) because all of these cross the blood brain barrier easily, which corrects the loss of appetite, fatigue and anxiety.    Like @Celiacandme said, keeping a food/mood/poo'd journal is a big help in finding problematic foods, and for making sure your diet is not carbohydrate heavy.  If you're eating a lot if processed gluten free facsimile foods, be aware they do not have vitamins and minerals added to them like their gluten containing counterparts.  For every 1000 kcal of carbohydrates, we need an extra 500 mg of thiamine to turn them into energy and not store them as fat.   Let us know how you're doing!

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.

      Testing

      By trents · Posted

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.
