El Burrito Jr. Seal Beach, Ca

We eat at El Burrito Jr. in Seal Beach quite often and I realized I had never posted about them. It's home cooked food and pretty inexpensive. The best thing is nearly everything on the menu is naturally gluten free. It's a family run place and when I was diagnosed one of the girls there went over the entire menu and ingredients with me. We have never been glutened there in 3 years!

The chips are safe to eat.

All the meats and tacos are safe.

Beans and rice are safe.

The only gluten containing ingredients are the flour tortillas and the enchilada sauce has flour as a thickener.

I order the tacos, beans rice, nachos, tostadas.

Their salsa is safe and they also have a red sauce they put on the tostada that is safe too.

If you are in the area check it out. It's directly across from the beach.

Depending on who is working, they may not know what you mean when you say gluten free. Just order the things I put on here, or ask them about flour. That will make more sense. There is no soy sauce in anything.

Thanks for the tip! We're higher up north in Santa Monica but it's always good to know of places in the vicinity for when we find ourselves down there.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
