Traveling to Belize

Does anyone know of gluten free stores in Belize?  Maybe I could have items mailed to my hotel instead of hauling it across the world, and having it get squished in my suitcase.  I will bring a few items with me.  I do have a kitchen to prepare some of my meals while I'm there.   Any suggestions would help me out.   It will be my Honeymoon trip and I do not want to be sick on my fabulous vacation.   :-)

I spoke with someone today who just came back from there. You may want to contact the hotel you will be staying at, it you are staying on one, and ask about stores near by. You may not be able to find much in the way of gluten free baked goods but the hotel staff should know. She said a great deal of the food is rice based so a lot may be naturally gluten free.  Maybe bring crackers and bread with you and go with lots of fresh fruits and veggies and meats if you are cooking. Congradulations and have a wonderful time.

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      Help with genetic testing

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.

      Help with genetic testing

      By trents · Posted

      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2
