However the loaves are quite small- I was thinking of combining two packets to make a larger loaf. Do you have any experience with this and if so do you know how much longer I should cook it to get the same result with the larger loaf? I have been using this bread and love it.

I feel pretty safe with that. http://www.fedupwithfoodadditives.info/information/additivesall.htm It's hard to know about some ingredients when they are numbered but I think in most cases some numbers are quite safe and natural ingredients but since their name is so long they just put a number on the pack. Good to know that someone like you is looking into all the healthy options for us. I for one like to know what I'm eating. Keep up the good work :) Raising agent 500 is just baking powder, sodium bicarbonate. I feel pretty safe with that. http://www.fedupwithfoodadditives.info/information/additivesall.htm

So not good for sensitive stomachs. With Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose there is still some confusion on whether or not it is safe. I have talked to Simply Wize and they are in the process of finding substitutes to these ingredients as they are aware of the side effects (so that is good to know!). Lifestyle Bakery do use a raising agent 500 which is most often synthetically made unless they have managed to source a natural alternative. Reasonably safe in low doses but can cause respiratory distress, vomiting, diarrhoea, rashes and gastrointestinal bleeding in high doses. Lifestyle breads are also great as they are dairy free for those of you with dairy allergies. I do agree natural is best....but even I as a naturopath can give in to temptation (sometimes..) :) Thanks :) Yes Simply Wize does contain carrageenan which has been known to cause some side effects in high doses!

Sure it looks nice but I'd rather stick to the natural and easy solution with Lifestyle Bakery I think! :) But didn’t you say that the Simply Wize loaf had some bad ingredients in it?

I know what you mean about making your own bread, it's hard finding time to make it but i think it's worth it after trying this bread cause it was really yummy. The main difference for me was how similar it is to the wheat french stick bread with the crusty outside, cause i used to love that sort of bread (but that's just me). I'm sure you could add chia seeds or linseeds to this mix too if you wanted to. I'll have to try the lifestyle bakery chia bread next time I come across it, thanks for the link the ingredients do look good. Hey Joel,

I am definitely going to try this out. Hopefully my bread turns out just as good in looks and taste. I'll be back and let you know how i go! Those photos make the bread look soooo yummy.

Can't be bothered wasting my time when there is such a wide variety on the market. I especially love Lifestyle Bakery and their wide range of Gluten Free products. They also contain no nasties (preservatives etc) and their products are made with really nutritious ingredients like Chia Seed. The Chia Seed Loaf is actually the nicest tasting Gluten Free Bread I've ever tried!!! www.lifestylebakery.com.au I’m not a fan of baking my own bread….

Especially the cinnamon raisin bread. Such a pity that I am in Australia and won't be able to try it out, but i'm sure this information will come in handy for others. Thanks for sharing! Hey Nancy,

It's in several Whole Foods in PA. You can order it online from Amaranth Bakery. They are starting to get alot of positive blog comments from celiac websites. Worth a try!
