Yesterday my husband saw commercial for a new kind of gluten free bread made with something from DOW company. Today I found this:

If the bread in the video was made from their gluten-free ingredient it's look promising? The texture looked wonderful. :D

Where do we get it???

Looks encouraging.

The "Dow Chemical" part gives me the heebies; however, I'd get over it. I think.

I NEED that bread! That texture looks so wonderful.

Didn't the "scientists" come up with something similar in the 1960s to make wheat more moist too? And now 40-50 years later we are all becoming intolerant to it. Isn't anyone else concerned that in 40-50 years we will all become intolerant to our gluten free breads if they start chemically altering it? I would take serious caution here. Just sayin.

I want that bread too! OMG, my mouth is watering for it. I wonder if it will come as baguettes too. They were in the video. I feel teased now.

Do you eat xanthan gum? Just sayin. ;)

Di2011 Enthusiast

I can't tolerate xanthan gum. This is also way out of my interest zone

What do I have in common with a Panda bear? We both eat bamboo fiber. :blink:

The enjoy life bread, that is allergen safe, for my daughter has bamboo fiber in it. So, I guess a gluten free diet involves having an open mind and a willingness to try new things within reason. ;)

As I understand it, this should be the replacement for gums.

I'm with you. UNBELIEVABLE. No one bothers to question whether or not they SHOULD eat this stuff as long as it looks good. We have learned NOTHING. Sad.

Nobody is going to force you to eat it. You are a bit hypocritical if you are eating carboxymethyl cellulose in breads like Udi's though.

hate to tell you, but any food you see in a photo or on TV is usually 100% fake. I took photography, most of the time they use something that photographs better, not the real product.

Dear fellow celiacs, please don't blame the food ingredient suppliers for helping us to achieve gluten free bread that doesn't look and taste like c**p. We WANT to have bread like the one wheat protein can produce, but we can't, so let's just welcome the fibres, the emulsifiers, the hydrocolloids that allow us to have what we want, making rice and corn and other gluten free flours behave like wheat. I assure you, they are either harmless or very healthy ingredients like the insoluble fibres from bamboo. Please read more about them before you go about spreading unreasonable suspicion.

      Just finished my second celebrity cruise. My first was on one of their oldest ships, it was awesome! Now we have sailed on the edge class. Wow! Not only do they have so many gluten-free options but the selection is mind blowing! Any given day you will have between 5 to 7 different gluten-free cakes to try. Yes that is right, one day at the coffee shop I had to choose between 5 gluten-free cakes not including the several puddings on display. So they gave me a small piece of each. 2 were great, 2 were just good, and 1 I did not enjoy. But never have I had the tough decision of which cake to eat?  These selections are from their normal options available for all guest. In the main dining room they always surprised me with some awesome desserts.  In my opinion the best pizza was on the Millennium class and best buffet on the Edge class. Although these two ship vary in size they are both consistent and serving high quality food from the main dinning room. The edge class gives you 4 “main” dining rooms (all included). I was unsure how this would work with my gluten-free diet? It worked great! I was able to order or see the next night’s menu for each of the four dinning venues finding that very little to no modifications needed to be made due to their extensive gluten free options.  The Millennium and Edge class ships provide the best gluten-free options from any of the cruise lines I have sailed with. You will find a larger selection and options on the edge class ships, however you will not be disappointed with the smaller Millennium class. Which is still my favorite cruise ship to date.

      Welcome to the forum, @ABP! We can't comment on the test numbers you give as you didn't include the range for negative. Different labs use different units and different ranges. There are no industry standards for this so we need more information. If your daughter doesn't have celiac disease she still could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which some experts believe can be a precursor to celiac disease and is 10x more common than celiac disease. However, there is no test for it yet but it does share many of the same symptoms with celiac disease. Both require complete abstinence from gluten.  It is seldom the case during testing where all tests are positive, even for those who do have celiac disease. This is no different than when diagnosing other medical conditions and that is why it is typical to run numbers of tests that come at things from different angles when seeking to arrive at a diagnosis. It seems like you are at the point, since you have had both blood antibody testing and endoscopy/biopsy done, that you need to trial the gluten free diet. If her symptoms improve then you know all you need to know, whatever you label you want to give it. But given that apparently at least one celiac antibody blood test is positive and she has classic celiac symptoms such as slow growth, constipation and bloating, my money would be on celiac disease as opposed to NCGS.

      My nine-year-old daughter has suffered with severe constipation and bloating for years as well as frequent mouth sores, and keratosis Polaris on her arms. She also has recently decreased on her growth curve her % going down gradually.  After seeing a gastroenterologist, her IgG GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG) was 22.4 while her IGA was normal. Her TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA was 11.9.  Most recently her genetic test for celiac was positive.  After an endoscopy her tissue showed inflammation of the tissue as well as , increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) but there was no blunting of the change in the villi.    It seems that every result that we get one out of two things positive rather than all leading to an inconclusive diagnosis. While we do have another appointment with the doctor to go over the results. I'm curious based on this information what others think.    I would hate to have her eliminate gluten if not necessary- but also don't want to not remove if it is necessary.    Signed Confused and Concerned Mama

      I guess using "GF" instead of "PL" would have been too easy! 😉
    • trents
      I was wrong, however, about there being no particular health concerns associated with high total IGA: https://www.inspire.com/resources/chronic-disease/understanding-high-iga-levels-causes-impacts/ So maybe the physician's "borderline" remark is relevant to that.
