Many people ask us what the term "Namaste" means. They will do their best to explain it here. The word "Namaste" (pronounced "Naa-Maa-Stay") is an ancient Sanskrit word with no literal translation. After many hours reviewing all the different translations, they decided they like this one the best. "The Spirit within me honors and respects the Spirit within you." The word 'Spirit' in this context has no particular religious connotation. You could substitute the word 'Heart' or 'Soul' if you like. The essence of the phrase is simply that the best part of me wishes you well - in every way. In seeking to offer you delicious gluten and allergen-free foods, they nourish the body. In nourishing the body, they hope to help nourish the mind and the spirit so you can enjoy optimum health. Frquently Asked Questions I am ordering a Namaste Foods product but wondered about the XANTHAN GUM. Their ad says corn-free. Doesn't xanthan gum have corn in it or a by product? Namaste Foods uses xanthan gum that is NOT derived from corn or corn sources. It is certified by the manufacturer to be free of all carbohydrates including corn, wheat and soy. Can a powdered egg substitute be used in place of eggs? Namaste Foods products are formulated to be used with eggs. However, they have many customers who use a powdered egg substitute with success though some amount of experimenting may be necessary. I liked the original baking instructions for your Pizza Crust better than the new method. Can you please give me those directions? Original Namaste Foods Baking Directions for One 14" Pizza Crust or 4 Mini Crusts: What You Need: 1 Cup Water 1 1/2 Teaspoons Olive or Other Oil Heat oven to 425° F. Generously oil a pizza stone or pan, then rub some on a rolling pin. Combine 1 cup warm water and 1 1/2 teaspoons olive or other oil to 2 3/4 cups of dry mix. Beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes on high speed. Form dough into a ball then put on your stone or pan. Roll out to about 1/4" thick. Bake for approximately 10 minutes on lowest oven rack. (You can freeze for later use at this point.) Add sauce and whatever toppings you like. Brush edge of crust with olive oil. If the bottom of the crust looks brown, move pizza to the middle rack and bake another 8-12 minutes. Otherwise, leave it on the bottom rack and bake. Enjoy! What is Celiac Disease? Celiac disease is an autoimmune digestive disease that damages the villi of the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. What does this mean? Celiac disease is triggered by consumption of the protein called gluten, which is found in wheat, barley and rye. When people with Celiac disease eat foods containing gluten, their immune system responds by damaging the fingerlike villi of the small intestine. When the villi become damaged, the body is unable to absorb nutrients into the bloodstream, which can lead to malnourishment. Celiac disease is also known as Celiac Sprue, Nontropical Sprue, and Gluten-Sensitive Enteropathy. Researchers have determined that Celiac disease is a genetic condition, meaning that it is inherited. In some cases, Celiac becomes active or is triggered by events such as surgery, pregnancy, c
