Comments on: Celimix, Almond Milk, gluten-free Safeway… http://avthompson.wordpress.com/2008/06/02/20/ Just another WordPress.com weblog Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:11:15 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Leo VG http://avthompson.wordpress.com/2008/06/02/20/#comment-279 Leo VG Sat, 27 Jun 2009 04:16:01 +0000 http://avthompson.wordpress.com/?p=20#comment-279 A nutritional cosultant working with my family dr. has suggested that the reason for my chronic diarrhea may be fructose malabsorption, and that I should try a fructose/fructans restricted diet for 6 weeks. Through reading, I can see how complex this would be, and I'd like to get tested (Fructose Hydrogen Breath Test) before trying the diet. Do you know where I can get the test done. I live in Calgary, and Calgary Labs don't do it, they referred me to the GI Clinic of the U of C at the Foothills Hospital, but they only do the test with Glucose or Lactose. My gastroenterologist doesn't know, and has lost interest in me since all the tests/colonoscopies/gastro follow through since this diarrhea started (8 years ago) have come up negative. Reading how common this ailment seems to be, I'm surprised that no one does the test.

I'm so glad you found all that stuff! It's funny sometimes how we miss what's right in front of us. Turns out I was wrong about the potato flour. I have 2 recipes that say equal amounts of rice, potato and arrowroot flours or equal amounts of rice, potato, arrowroot and maize cornflour (not wheaten, cornstarch) plus a little xanthan or guar gum should be good. I haven't tried them though but now you have one that's not beany....I look forward to the cake! Yay! I’m so glad you found all that stuff!
