Hello all! My family is vacationing in the Union Square area of San Francisco and I am looking for restaurant recommendations. I'm extremely sensitive, and usually don't eat out, but it would be so nice if there was a safe place. My kids really want to eat in Chinatown too, if anyone knows a good place. Thanks!

E&O Restaurant and Bar on the edge of Chinatown and Union Square is a great Asian place with lots of gluten-free options. My husband and I have eaten there multiple times, and have always been pleased with our meals. The staff is fantastic!

There are many other places in the area that can accommodate gluten-free diners, but i think E&O really stands out.

Asian  Box is completely gluten free, although that information is not very prominent on their website.  I haven't been to the SF location but enjoyed the Mountain View location.  It looks like the SF location may be within the Macy's department store.

Mariposa Bakery in the Ferry Bldg. right on the bay.  Mariposa has fantastic sandwiches and salads,  either hot or cold, on your choice of breads or rolls.  Try the chocolate cupcakes!

I had lunch at Nopalito on 9th by Golden Gate park yesterday and they were very helpful and knowledgeable. I had a yummy chicken soup with avocado, corn tortillas, cauliflower, and chipotle pepper. There were also a few other items on the menu that were gluten free. They were upfront about the items I should not have- including letting me know the chips were cooked in the same fryer as flour items. I really appreciate when they know and tell you that sort of thing.
It's the first time I've eaten out since I was diagnosed 6 months ago and didn't feel bad the next day. I will definitely go back. That soup was really good :) Open Original Shared Link

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
