From what I've read, fermented foods are to be avoided if avoiding sugar and yeast (i.e if have Candidiasis, sugar problems). But then I read about all the "benefits" of fermented foods like tempeh and apple cider vinegars, etc....I love tempeh - but is it bad for "growing" yeast then? Yick, that sounds icky. (P.S I made this bread before with rice! I must try it with quinoa - so simple and no added ingredients like the gums and stuff you see added in store bought products).

So sorry your first attempt was a bit rubbery, but I loved your savory take on the bread. Yes, you must soak and add all the water even though it seems like it will be way too much. I haven't made the bread in forever, but it's so good with the coconut oil. However, I don't think I would want to double the batch as I've found it's best to eat it fresh from the oven...although I've never tried freezing it. That may work better that just keeping it in the fridge.<br/><br/> As far as balancing hormones go, I'm all for eating a diet higher in fat, including saturated fats and little to no sugar. At least that is what seems to work best for my body. Never hesitate to email me if you have questions and thanks so much for reading HEAB - well, thanks to your brother I guess I should say. ;)<br/><br/> P.S. I got the millet bread recipe from a reader, but it's originally from the cookbook, Mother Necessity Gluten Free/ Casein Free Recipes by Cristin Fergus. I've been meaning to try and find the book myself...I think I'll look and see if my library stocks it. Hope your 2nd batch is better! Julia,
