Gluten free honeymoon adventure

Hello all,

First time posting, hi!

My fiance and I are getting married in may this year. Alex, my partner is celiac and while I would like us to have quite an adventurous honeymoon, I also want to make sure he and I don't spend the whole time stressing about what he is going to eat.

Any suggestions for a gluten-free adventure in may? Preferably outside of Europe or N.america. Or any suggestions or good tour companies for catering to diets like this??

 

Thank you!

Stephanie

Have seen people speak well of South America where there's a corn based diet or SE asia where wheat is much rarer. But its probably a case of finding somewhere you both want to be then making as many enquiries / preparations as possible to ensure when you get there it's as hassle free as possible.

It's not really out of the U.S., but I'd consider Maui or Oahu.  Both islands have a good variety of gluten free food options, including a few gluten free bakeries.  I've had great success at both.

      Symptoms Dismissed

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Chronic fatigue in the producer was the inspiration for the episode but I feel it touches on anyone that suffers and is dismissed as psycosomatic. The patient expressed my feelings elequently.  In episode 2 the doctor explains the problem well. I stopped all commercial milk protein like skim milk added to processed foods and in a few days there was a definate improvement in my  gut, bowel movements, discomfort etc. Still drinking several glasses of Pasture Fed grass fed milk with no negative effects.   Specifically, for myself Clonidine is the only medication that lowers my BP and the doctor did not renew it, insisting that I continue Losartan.  I think that she thinks I am abusing Clonidine and the reason the Losartan doesn't work is because I am non-compliant.  Absolutely not. Surprisingly after a few days withdrawal from the Clonidine my fasting blood sugar has gotten under control.  Fasting blood sugar near normal instead of over 160.  Last few days its been below 100.  I still need Glimiperide.  Without the clonidine my pulse rate is around 100 bpm, with it around 60.   Prescription of angiotensin receptor blockers in celiac disease is associated with persistent symptoms and surrogate markers of malabsorption.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12323722/ Angiotensin receptor blocker-associated enteropathy (ARB-e) is an increasingly recognised clinical entity with symptoms and histological findings identical to coeliac disease (celiac disease). There is evidence to suggest immune-mediated mucosal injury in ARB-e with a high prevalence of DQ2/DQ8; however, as IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-TTG) is usually negative   https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ueg2.12117 NEW research [Nov 2024] presented at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Annual Scientific Meeting suggests that angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), a class of drugs commonly used to manage hypertension, may be associated with poorer outcomes in patients with coeliac disease. Findings indicated that patients taking ARBs had a higher likelihood of experiencing persistent symptoms and markers of poor small bowel healing, such as anaemia and iron deficiency.  https://www.emjreviews.com/en-us/amj/gastroenterology/news/angiotensin-receptor-blockers-may-worsen-coeliac-disease-outcomes/

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @BarcinoHi! I am so sorry abt your son but also relieved to know I am not alone! My ttg iga is still mildly elevated but going down. Last time we checked I had some small erosions in my ileum but recently got an MRE that showed no inflammation. Calpro 70. We are still in limbo but we are taking a conservative approach as well. Please keep me updated about his situation and outcomes! I always love to hear others opinions/experiences especially ibd specialists.

      Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      By BelleDeJour · Posted

      Oh, thank you all so so much! I have found my people.   ❤️ I am so sorry that we have all suffered with this torturous itching and resulting sore skin. Sue, I can relate to what you wrote about the dark thoughts, I have had them, too. It's very tough and painful.  I have now had a 2 day straight run of only minor itching. I woke up this morning and did not want to get out of bed because it is the first time in months that I have felt comfortable and actually been able to appreciate the lovely feeling of the duvet on my skin, rather than just waking in pain and thinking about where I need to put cream on before I dress for work. If I can continue like this, then I think I could manage without medication but every time I say this, I then have a flare up. I plan to be very careful about what I eat over the weekend and it won't be easy as we are out with friends for dinner on Saturday (the pub do have very good gluten-free options, I checked of course!).  I really, REALLY appreciate your words so much and am so glad to have found this forum. I am going to read the articles kindly posted now, thank you Scott.

      I don’t know how common this is with celiac disease specifically, but significant inflammation, weight changes, aging, genetics, and skin elasticity can all play a role. It may be worth talking with both your doctor and a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to see what options are realistic, from skin-tightening treatments to surgical approaches, while also making sure there isn’t ongoing inflammation, thyroid imbalance, or nutritional deficiency contributing. You deserve support for both the physical and emotional side of this.
