Crohns Disease Only --- Gluten Free Bread
Wife has UC, later rediagnosed as UC + Crohns. Been through all the medications, now on the last ditch medication (asacol quit working, now on humira) before intestine surgery begins. Medication working somewhat, but she still feels bloated, achey, fatigued, etc.
Somewhat in desperation I am having her try gluten free diet as some said that helped them. After about 5 days gluten free (as near as we know how), she does feel remarkably better. Maybe a fluke, other things have been.
My question, is it better to just buy the frozen loafs of Udi's or try to bake your own. The Udi's is not bad, but certainly nothing like our normal grocery store sandwich bread. If gluten free does pan out long term, I will buy some kind of bread machine. I have tried baking bread the normal way with mixed results --- and GF is much more difficult.
