are there any high-phytase gluten-free grains?  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I've been eating mostly brown rice and millet, which are both low in phytase. I'd like to add a high-phytase grain to them to improve the breakdown of phytates, but all the high-phytase grains I know of contain gluten. Does anyone know of a high-phytase GF grain/seed?

Buckwheat is the one I use.
Here is an earlier thread with some references:

I haven't read that brown rice is a problem, though millet is and corn is. Do you have a grain mill? I think your best bet will be to fresh grind your grains and then enjoy the creations.

I do have a grain mill...I just hate using it because it's very loud and a pain to clean up I haven't done too well with brown rice flour from the HFS but I might tolerate/digest it better if I grind my own...we'll see. Thanks!
