The Diet without Rice or Rice Products?

[Guest guest]

We are working with that problem here. I've found you can substitute

millet flour for rice flour equally. I don't know if this would work in

all products, but I think I'm going to try it. Plus, millet (teff) is the

grain that is the furthest removed from wheat. It tastes good, too.

Arrowhead Mills is one company that I know makes the flour. They also

carry whole grains--good for hot cereal.

I understand how removing casein from the diet can help with

constipation.

But if remove gluten and substitute RICE (or rice-based products) for

the gluten-containing products, don't you cause constipation?

I've been told NOT to give my son rice (because of his chronic

constipation). Now I don't see how I can remove gluten from his diet

without relying on rice-based substitutes.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance.
