Go To Asian Market

My co-worker is Asian and she's going to take me to a market that she goes to tomorrow. I know that I've heard people say that Asian markets are good for people with celiac disease because a lot of their stuff is naturally gluten free. Do you have any ideas for stuff that I should be on the look out for?

anything fresh!! Ooh, you are so lucky! Of course, wonton wrappers and such are out. Read the labels (if you can) on the sauces and stuff. Have your friend translate for you. If they have a good soy sauce (not made with wheat - just the fermented soy) snap it up!!! That would be my plan if I could go.

rice noodles - the thread style. good for so many things, including the fastest soup-for-dinner you've ever made from 'scratch'. (Broth, bag of small, frozen, cooked shrimp, rice noodles.)

rice-paper, for making spring rolls. (you'll probably find it next to the rice noodles.)

and peruse the sauces. the labeling may identify when ones are gluten-free. (like chili sauce usually is.)

Thanks for the help. We just got back and I got spring roll wraps and the noodles to go in there. I also got chili sauce. Can you tell me how to make the stuff though? I got some tips from my friend, but I want to see how you make stuff too.

Besides the lazy shrimp soup recipe I mentioned, you can use it in place of rice for stir fries. For spring rolls, you can pick a few vegetables you like in them, soak the paper to soften it (a sheet at a time), and roll them up, either baking, pan frying, or deep frying.

I believe ThaiKitchen's website has a number of recipes as well.

If you like Thai food, try and find some tamarind juice. Here is a link to Thai recipes.

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      We have a category of articles on this topic if you really want to dive into it: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.
