Going to Las Vegas and staying at THE Hotel I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for gluten free options at any restaurants?

thanks!

Hi.

I copied my post for you from last month when someone was asking.......

Ooh, I'm completely jealous. I LOVE Vegas! Have a blast!

Previous post.....

Hi.

I went to Vegas over the holidays. So fun! My husband and friends surprised me for my 40th birthday! It was my first trip after diagnosis last August. I went with a bunch of power bars in my suitcase figuring GFCFSF would be ridiculous to accommodate. I did o.k. -- got sick once, but I think it was soy.

We stayed at the Encore/Wynn and mosty ate there. A bit pricey, but worth it to feel good--couldn't miss out on blackjack!

This is where I ate great food:

Tableau at the Wynn. Absolutely amazing entree and very knowledgeabe. Dressy.

Terrace Pointe Cafe at the Wynn. Good food. Also very knowledgable. Casual. At lunch there 3 times!

Maggiano's across from the Wynn. Good gluten-free pasta. Waiter didn't have a clue, but the chef did, and everyone was very nice. Casual.

The Buffet at the Wynn. We got a free meal so we went for breakfast. I stuck to a fresh omelet from the omelet station and it was great!

This is where I didn't eat great food:

Bartolotta at the Wynn. They were super nice, but the veggie dish they prepared for me was just awful. My husband and friends all agreed. So, I sent it back. Not something I ever do. Previously, before going gluten-free, I had a wonderful meal there. Too bad.

Wazuzu at Encore. I got terribly sick a few hours later. It resembled a soy reaction for me even though we specified NO soy. Also, my server was in the dark.

I hope you have a wonderful trip! I LOVE Vegas. I was worried about being a pain in the A. But, you know what? I got used to it! Ha! I was just very polite and extra thankful. I would definitely feel comfortable going back.

Cheers!

Jill

I always go to PF Changs @ Planet Hollywood on the strip. They have a gluten-free menu and it's nice not to have to explain everything to a clueless waiter / waitress.

Good Luck!

      Gluten Allergy

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6. Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok. P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together. Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance. If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      @Rejoicephd, I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my severe deficiency quickly. It's safe to do this. I felt much better once my Vitamin D level was about eighty ng/mL. Vitamin D works as a hormone and helps calms the immune system between 80 - 100 ng/mL. High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation Can Correct Hypovitaminosis D Prior to Total Knee...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my ...

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      Yes, that seems to be the gist. Quantifying residues in fermented foods and drinks seems to be difficult. There are no tests for total gluten, just immunoassays, which generally detect a single epitope. There are estimated to be approximately 50 sequences that evoke a T-cell response of which nearly half are unknown and have no test. Gluten fragments...

      Gluten Allergy

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty, I really appreciate all the feedback. I have had 2 biopsies of my small intestine that are negative for celiac disease. I have not had the genetic testing though, so that is something I will look into, since the biopsies were done without a prior gluten challenge. I tried one once before an allergy test and was sick for days...

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6.  Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok.  P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together.  Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance.  If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac, then all the B vitamins will be poorly absorbed.  Taking a B Complex in addition to extra thiamine (Benfotiamine) is safe.  The B vitamins and Vitamin C are water soluble.  Any excess is urinated out.  I took a B 50 Complex twice a day to increase absorption.   Try taking Magnesium Threonate (Neuro-Mag by Life Extension).  Magnesium Threonate can get into the brain easily.  The brain needs magnesium, too, but other forms don't cross the blood-brain barrier as well.   The first time I took Magnesium Threonate, it felt like my brain relaxed.  I highly recommend it.   How's your Vitamin D level?

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my last blood test so I know I’m back to being deficient there (it did go up for a while but back down again). Whomp whomp. So I’ll be both reading about and taking vitamins. Thanks again for your input. Really appreciate it.

There are estimated to be approximately 50 sequences that evoke a T-cell response of which nearly half are unknown and have no test. Gluten fragments remain that bind to IgA and IgG in vitro but this does not necessarily make them immunotoxic. Also, the fragments are "drastically reduced" by gastrodudenal digestion. PEP enzyme cannot cleave all proline sites and there is a large variation in the amount of residual gluten in gluten reduced beers. I.e. the safety of gluten reduced beer is uncertain.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty, I really appreciate all the feedback. I have had 2 biopsies of my small intestine that are negative for celiac disease. I have not had the genetic testing though, so that is something I will look into, since the biopsies were done without a prior gluten challenge. I tried one once before an allergy test and was sick for days. I do know that I don’t easily methylate my b vitamins but have to be careful taking methylated versions as they give me too much energy and I can’t sit still or sleep.    I also prefer magnesium glycinate but I only take it in the mornings because I have to take it with food to avoid stomach upset. I’ve often wondered if I have leaky gut syndrome and my symptoms indicate yes. I appreciate hearing what works well for you. I think I’ll focus on benfotiamine and see if I can tolerate it and/or it makes a difference. I really need to find a good nutritionist or naturopath. I’ll keep looking. In the meantime, thank you for your support!
