Thanks so much! I also have a question about flours: I have both the 21 day tummy books and some of those recipes use things like almond flour that I thought were not okay, also where do we stand on amaranth & flax in flour blends? I was looking at premium gold gluten free flour, which I’ve heard is yummy, but these are the ingredients: rice flour, ground flaxseed, quinoa flour, buckwheat flour, amaranth flour, tapioca flour, arrowroot flour, and xantham gum. Would that be a suitable blend for this diet? Thanks again!!

I can’t provide individual guidance, Adina–but adding rice protein powder, tolerable fats such as coconut oil and olive oil, and eating a well-balanced meal with one to two snacks can be a good start to weight gain. Best of luck at your new specialist!

So amazing, right, Tara!?! I am adding grated zucchini to my crustless quiche, scrambled eggs, savory gluten free biscuits…..so yummy!

Hi Margaret,
I can’t offer individual advice regarding your GI care–it would not be prudent without understanding your full medical history. I can tell you that I individualize probiotic needs post SIBO treatment based on residual symptoms. If the patient has underlying symptoms that were not resolved with the antibiotics, I might start a low dose probiotic. I am not in the ‘camp’ that more is better with probiotics. I like to start slowly and increase as needed. the gut environment is a very fragile ecosystem. Can you work with a dietitian to help guide your case?
