Trying to make brown rice bread, and cant find a recipe that doesnt include some time of food gum. Does anyone know if guar is better than xanthan? also, I would prefer to not use either and use a natural alternative, any ideas? Obviously these gums are not a whole foods and are man made, are they safe for health, gmo free, etc?

Honestly it isn't bad for your health. It is a gluten alternative. But, quite frankly if you add a tbsp more flour to your bread recipe then you should be just fine...

Xanthan gum is natural, it's made by fermentation of various vegetable products, cabbage, chick peas and even cassava. Many things we eat are fermented, cheese, wine, beer, bread to name but a few. The gum is used to replace gluten in your rice bread and will allow it to rise. Good Luck
