Staying At Extended Family's House For A Week

Starting on Thursday, I'm going to be staying with my cousin, aunt and uncle in Vegas for about a week. My cousin is graduating from college so there are going to be about 30 people in the house during the day and for a lot of the meals, especially during the weekend. I'm bringing foil, soy sauce, cutting boards, and pastas to get me through till my parents will be there on Saturday and we can go to the grocery store. They're being really great about listening to what needs to happen including finding gluten free cupcakes for the graduation celebration and notifying the restaurant (they already have a gluten-free menu) and asking lots of questions. And I'm already planning on spending a lot of time in the kitchen so I know exactly what's safe and what's not.

 

Is there anything I'm missing?

What about a strainer? I have one that is smaller and more of a scooper (kinda like a ladle) i use when i've only made a little bit.

Sounds like you're armed and dangerous to wicked gluten.    Way to go!!!    My only suggestion would be to  add easy snacks, like sunflower seeds or nuts.

I'm thinking like Marilyn- some filling snacks.  More than you could need just incase things don't work out the way you think it will.

      Hmm, I think you mean the Gluten Intolerance Group®? Their website is not gig.net. Maybe it was at one point? I am new to all of this, but did find their website here: https://gluten.org/ Kind Regards, Known1

      Barilla gluten free pasta

      @Scott Adams, You're right about corn and wheat not sharing similarities in the 33-mer peptide segment of gluten. Corn has a completely different peptide that causes an autoimmune reaction because it attaches to HLA-DQ8. Casein in dairy shares with wheat similarities in the33-mer peptide chain. Sorry about the oversimplification. Maize...

      Barilla gluten free pasta

      I just want to mention that corn and wheat do both contain storage proteins (corn has zein, wheat has gliadin and other gluten proteins), and there are some small similarities in certain amino acid sequences. However, those similarities are not considered medically equivalent, and corn proteins do not trigger the autoimmune response of celiac disease in the...

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      @Heatherisle, Newly diagnosed people often suffer from nutritional deficiencies. Thiamine B1 stores can be depleted within a few weeks. Thiamine deficiency can be localized in the gastrointestinal tract causing Gastrointestinal Beriberi. It is under diagnosed by doctors! Dysfunction of the gallbladder can be seen in Gastrointestinal Beriberi...

      I just want to mention that corn and wheat do both contain storage proteins (corn has zein, wheat has gliadin and other gluten proteins), and there are some small similarities in certain amino acid sequences. However, those similarities are not considered medically equivalent, and corn proteins do not trigger the autoimmune response of celiac disease in the vast majority of people with celiac. Celiac disease specifically involves an immune reaction to gluten peptides found in wheat, barley, and rye. Corn is classified as gluten-free because its proteins do not activate that same immune pathway in most individuals. Although corn intolerance is very real, the explanation about the proteins being the same is oversimplified to the point where it's not accurate.

      @Heatherisle, Newly diagnosed people often suffer from nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B1 stores can be depleted within a few weeks.  Thiamine deficiency can be localized in the gastrointestinal tract causing Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  It is under diagnosed by doctors!  Dysfunction of the gallbladder can be seen in Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   Have your daughter mention the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi to her dietician!  Gastrointestinal Beriberi will be improved with high dose Thiamine administration, orally or by IV.  It's important to have thiamine deficiency corrected as quickly as possible to prevent life threatening health problems and risk permanent damage.   I had Gastrointestinal Beriberi but my doctors did not recognize it.  I had diarrhea.  I had my gallbladder removed (gallbladder attack).  Still had diarrhea.  My thiamine deficiency progressed to Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors diagnosed me as "depressed".   I corrected the thiamine deficiency at home with over the counter Thiamine Hydrochloride tablets.  I'm very thankful I studied Nutrition.   See if the symptoms match:  Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Gastrointestinal Beriberi Presenting With Chronic Diarrhea: A Case Report https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12794365/
