What are some good options for gluten free eating in Houston, TX?  I had my first dining out experience since diagnosis, at Outback.  It was a good experience! Just curious as to others? Thanks :)

I don't live close enough to Houston to know which restaurants are good, but I know they have an active gluten intolerance group, and there is this awesome place there called Gluten Free Nation.  Open Original Shared Link  They are a dedicated bakery that also sells tons of gluten-free stuff in their store, they sell their products in HEB's and I have yet to try something bad.  I shop at HEB primarily here and I like their pie crusts.  Also, if you haven't checked out HEB's gluten-free selection, they have a good number of private label gluten-free mixes, brown gluten-free shelf tags that are easy to see, and any HEB brand item that is gluten-free will usually have the brown gluten-free logo on it.  In the meat section where they have precooked entrees, they have a handful of those that are gluten-free, it is really nice for when you aren't able to cook.

I'd recommend Fuddrucker, Pei Wei, Ruggles Green, Spaghetti Warehouse downtown, Katz Deli (New menu), El Tiempo Cantina, Glazed the Donut Cafe and Johnny Carinos to name a few.

Nearly forgot Russos New York Pizzaria and most of the Landrys branded restaurants have a separate menu or will accommodate (Saltgrass has a good menu). Hate to be a troll but I don't care for gluten-free Nation's products. A few stores carries Sami's breads and products but I think they are shipped in from FL. They have a better bread than even Udis.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.
