<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi Helen, Sorry to hear you are a celiac. I have been one for about 10 years now and my blood sugar runs high. Rice is very high in carbs. I am trying to control my sugar with herbs I got from my acupuncture. I'll let you know if they work. This is a disease that can be controlled, you just have to learn a new life style and teach your friends about it. It takes a while as the big guys (corp) like to hide wheat in everything. My problem seems to be wheat as I can eat other glutens without any pain. When I eat wheat the pain is awful. Ask any questions, I'm sure we will all try to help you Carolyn * Send administrative questions to [log in to unmask] *
