My one foray to a restaurant was an eye opener

[LisaSan111]

Hi All. So, I've been rocking along and doing really well on my no gluten lifestyle. A couple days ago a good friend and her family came into town and wanted to meet up for dinner at Outback. My wife and I went. I planned to just nurse sodas and eat when I got home. Then I got the genius idea that I could order a steak with nothing else. I thought "What cross contamination could there be? All they grill on the grill are steaks....." . (I can see all of you shaking your heads sadly and tsking. ) The inevitable happened...I thoroughly enjoyed my steak and suffered for it throughout the next day. I have now accepted that I will most probably not be able to eat out. We live in Central Florida in a smallish town and choices are limited. But I feel so much better,both physically and moodwise, that I hardly care.

A few of us here use GliadinX whenever we eat outside our homes, they are a sponsor here, and their AN-PEP based enzymes have been shown in numerous studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

Of course it's best to just not eat out, however, for many people this isn't a realistic option.

This may also help:

Thank you, Scott. That was very helpful advice. I plan on getting a bottle of the GliadinX as soon as I can. I'm watching my pennies at the moment. But I really do appreciate your response. Love your site.
