#gluten diet

[lastoneout]

Love having multiple dietary restrictions due to my chronic illnesses including a massive wheat intolerance and watching people on twitter assure everyone that "you won't starve if animal products and meat become prohibitively expensive or completely unavailable" like just say you don't give a shit about disabled people and go.

Greek-Style Potato Nachos (Healthy, Vegan)

kinda crazy that some people’s idea of accommodating dietary restrictions is to just. feed you a salad. for every meal.

This vegan spin on shakshuka is made with spinach and lemony pan-fried tofu (in place of eggs!) in a smoky tomato and red pepper sauce. It’s perfect for breakfast or dinner, easy to make, and absolutely delicious scooped up on crusty pita wedges.

‼️ content warning for talking about (necessary, healthy) food restrictions ‼️

Please don’t be rude about somebody’s dietary restrictions.

Sometimes people don’t even notice it in the little comments about how gross vegan food is, how bad for you dairy-free milks are, how everything gluten-free tastes like cardboard…people don’t choose their food intolerances!!!!

I have to use a lot of substitutes for MEDICAL REASONS, and I’ve had people tell me to my face how gross that is. Vegan cheese tastes like glue. Oh, you have to try a gluten free diet? That’s so trendy now, but really you don’t have to. The food is so bland.

I do have to, actually. It’s discouraging to hear how inferior your food is when there’s no other option!!!!! Please try to be considerate of people’s non-negotiable needs.

Also don’t be mean to people who do choose their own dietary specifications, that should go without saying. Be considerate and respectful of what people have to eat!!!

With love, if nobody is practicing unsafe or dangerous eating habits, mind your business ❤️

Once again at the doctor's office for coeliac disease related complications.... Chronic/autoimmune diseases can go choke on cacti 🙃

my mom thinks that diet will cure my audhd. she's putting me on a "special diet". is that a real thing because i don't think it is.

I can't speak for ADHD, but there is little to no scientific evidence that special diets can 'improve' autism, let alone 'cure' it.

There is some evidence to suggest autistic people are more likely to have an intolerance to gluten:

'A review by Valicenti-McDermott et al (2006) found that 70% of autistic children had gastrointestinal problems compared to 42% of children without a diagnosis of autism.' - Autism and gluten and casein-free diets from the National Autistic Society

so if you are actually gluten intolerant and you stop eating gluten you might feel better and have less stomach issues, but as far as I know there's not a direct correlation with autism, and being autistic does not mean you're also gluten intolerant.

Here are some articles and studies you might find helpful:

'National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) advises not to use exclusion diets such as gluten and casein-free diets as you may miss out on certain nutrients. In children this may lead to weight loss and affect their growth.' Autism and diet (bda.uk.com)

'...a review of data from 27 clinical trials...shows that there is little to no scientific evidence to support the bulk of these diets.' Analysis finds little evidence to support dietary interventions for autism | Spectrum | Autism Research News (spectrumnews.org)

Here's a link to the study the above article mentions

The best diet is a healthy balanced one with the right proportions and a good variety from all the food groups.

Low-FODMAP Gluten-free Rosemary Drop Biscuits

Like all of my gluten-free baking projects, I'm never sure how they're going to turn out. Plus, drop biscuits are a million times easier than traditional rolled biscuits, but they're usually not as flaky and soft, so I didn't have high hopes to begin with. But I was also lazy, so here we are. They turned out pretty good! Yeah, they're not as flaky as gluten-full biscuits, but they're super buttery, and I'll take butter over flake. Without further ado:

Low-FODMAP Gluten-free Rosemary Drop Biscuits

1 c lactose-free whole milk

1 tbsp lemon juice

8 tbsp lactose-free butter

2 c gluten-free baking flour (I used Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour)

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp sugar

3/4 tsp salt

3/4 c grated Parmesan

1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary

lots of cooking spray

Preheat the oven to 425F. In a small bowl, combine the milk and lemon, stir, and let sit for 10 minutes. (This is to make something called clabbered milk, which can be used as a substitute for the buttermilk that's in just about every biscuit recipe.) Melt the butter and let cool for 5 minutes or so.

Combine all the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Pour the melted, cooled butter into the clabbered milk, and stir until well mixed. (The butter will clump and look really gross, but you want these clumps because that's what makes biscuits flaky.) Pour the milk and butter mixture into the dry ingredients, and mix until everything is just combined.

Using a 1/4 c dry measure that's sprayed liberally with cooking spray, scoop out dough and drop onto a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper. Re-spray the scoop between biscuits; getting the dough to drop is annoying. I ended up with 9 biscuits. Bake until golden brown, 17-20 minutes.

All told, these turned out pretty good, especially given how unfussy they are to make. They were kinda hard and dry the next morning, but then most biscuits are; they're meant to be baked and eaten quickly. I nuked the ones I ate for 15 seconds and they became pliant again. As far as FODMAP concerns go: if you can't find lactose-free butter, you could try shortening or margarine, but I suspect they won't be nearly as good.

Disclaimer: I am no dietician. I'm doing my best to minimize FODMAPs in my diet, but it's possible for me to be misinformed or mistaken about various ingredients.

As someone with celiac who legit needs a gluten free diet, I sympathize with epileptics who legit need a keto diet, because it's fucking annoying and downright dangerous when people treat a medically-needed diet as a dieting trend that only out of touch yuppies partake in (see: that one boomer comic of trick or treaters demanding "woke" candy like gluten free or allergen free).

Also specialized diets are fucking expensive and sick people are overwhelming poor. And because people treat it as a fad diet you've got companies slapping useless and unverified claims on their overpriced food that aren't actually gf or keto (see: that "gluten free" ramen with a "celiac certified" stamp where the noodles were made of fucking barley)

was talking about food w my coworker and at one point i was like "oh i can't eat that" about something and got in response "oh good for you!" to which i had to explain no i am not dieting i just have celiac. and she kept trying to frame it as a good thing bc, i guess, it must protect me from eating Bad foods. and god. for crying out loud. a) hate hate hate that congratulating someone for not eating things is an acceptable line of conversation b) the idea that celiac is good actually bc "really shouldn't we all be eating fewer carbs" misses the point quite badly - celiac disease does not at all mean that you can't eat carbs or sweets, you just have to eat ones without gluten (which ironically! are often even more sugary and high-carb than the originals!) and also no, ffs, you don't need to eat fewer carbs! you do not! it's fine! c) it is rly fucking difficult to talk about food w people who assume that the less of it you eat the better when you are also trying to recover from disordered eating, like yea at one point i agreed w you! and i stopped eating carbs for a year! and it did me a lot of damage, thanks! d) i know she did not mean anything bad w all this, but rather genuinely meant it as a compliment that i would be choosing not to eat cake. and genuinely meant that celiac might be an advantage in getting a better grade in dieting or something. and somehow the good intentions make it worse and i fucking hate that we're so inured to how awful it is to think this way
