Walt Disney World Gluten Free

       If you are traveling to the Orlando area and in need of some “bird dogging “ to help you find gluten free options, I am here to help. I can give suggestions on content to watch or do a personal deep dive for you if traveling to the area. My first tip is to check out Gluten Free Disney with Gluten Free Gina. She covers a lot of the restaurants and quick service locations within the Disney bubble. She also reviews the surrounding area and parks, including cruise ships. 

    If you can’t find the answer to your question, contact me, and  I will look until I find you the answer.  I am glad to help. This is an altruistic adventure, my payment is from helping people not experience the same level of frustration as I have had to deal with when traveling. 

Come on down to Orlando.  The weather is great, and the gluten-free food is even better! 
your friend,

The Gluten Free Bird Dog

Steakhouse 71

Located on the 1st floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort you will find Steakhouse 71.  This restaurant has a vast selection of gluten free options. A rare find in breakfast selections is the gluten free Eggs Benedict served with breakfast potatoes. I will include the allergy menu for your review in another post due to file size constraints. 

If you are not staying at the Contemporary, or do not have a ticket for the Magic Kingdom, don’t worry. Most days through out the year, if you have a reservation at a sit down restaurant in the Disney bubble, you can park at that location for free. Just show the guard at the gate your reservation number and you’re good to go. 

If you want to be adventurous, park at Disney Springs, and catch a resort bus to the Contemporary. While at the Contemporary, you can take the resort monorail to the other Magic Kingdom Resorts.  Warning, this trip will cause you to want to go to the park. You have been warned! 

For the even more adventurous person, take the resort monorail to the TTC (Transportation and Ticket Center) and hop on the EPCOT monorail to Disney’s Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow .  These routes do not require a park ticket, and they allow you to see the Disney property from the sky. The same warning applies as above. 

Have fun!

The Gluten Free Bird Dog

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae.  I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health).   I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides.  I prefer the supplements.  I feel better and my bones feel stronger.   References: A composite protein enriched with threonine, lysine, and tryptophan improves osteoporosis by modulating the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiota https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41915427/

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!

      Hi, @Sue7171, I thought you might be interested in this article about Lyme disease and the discussion after the article.   I found this article enlightening.  The finding that not only can alpha gal be problematic, but advantageous infection with Staph aureus can be problematic.   The Acari Hypothesis, VII: accounting for the comorbidity of allergy with other contemporary medical conditions, especially metabolic syndrome https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11983536/
