Low Gluten advocates, educate me

[blooz]

My daughter has celiac disease and after going on a gluten-free diet she feels much better and even looks healthier—she has always been and will remain skinny, but she doesn't look anorexic anymore.

I've made kolach with gluten free flour with mixed results. It always worked out in the end and tasted okay, but working with rice flour or the pre-mixed (with the xanthan gum already in it) flour is difficutl, needs more moisture and is very sticky.
