Gf Stores Around Chicago

Will be traveling to the West and Northwest areas of Chicago in about a week, and thought while I was there, I might like to do some gluten-free shopping. Any good health food stores in the Palatine, Elgin, Aurora area that anyone knows of? I won't have a lot of time, so I can't stray too far off course! Thanks!

Trader Joes or Whole Foods would probably have the most stuff. Whole Foods in Wheaton, I believe it is, is a big supporter of the gluten-free Group up there.

I love Trader Joes. Miss it a lot.

There's several of both of these stores scattered all around up there.

Hi!

There is a store called the Gluten Free Market that is in Buffalo Grove, IL. It is about 10-15 minutes away from Palatine. The entire store is Gluten Free food. That would probably be the easiest for you. Their website is Open Original Shared Link.

There is also a decent health food store called Fruitful Yield, their website is Open Original Shared Link. There is one in Wheeling, Schaumburg, Aurora, and South Elgin, but I know the one in Schaumburg is changing locations this upcoming week and is a mess. Other than that, there are Trader Joe's in the area and their is Whole Foods in Palatine.

Good luck! Let me know if you have questions or need directions. I am pretty familiar with the Northwest suburbs.

Try a Woodman's if you will be around one. They have a pretty good selection, but the biggest bonus is that they are cheap. (At least when compared to the health food stores.)

There is a great store in North Aurora on butterfield Road just east of Route 31. Special Order Market has it's own bakery on premises and has a website - specialordermarket.com

You can see what they have in stock as well as stop in to see what has been baked. You can place an order through e-mail and just pick it up. They are great.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!
