Where can I go for great seafood in Vegas? I've heard good things about the seafood buffet at the Rio, but is it safe to eat there? Any other ideas?

You might contact Broncobux as he lives in Las Vegas and goes out to eat frequently. We are also going to be in Vegas this coming weekend. We are staying at the Mirage.

Buffets are a tough sell for me...

I normally do not eat at the Buffets due to Cross-Contamination.

However, I have eaten at the Rio's seafood buffet. You can do it, just be particular on your food.

At the Rio, I just ate the raw stuff, the steamed stuff (crabs, shrimp cocktail, etc) and salad.

Don't eat the "hot items" with all of the other buffet items -- people mix and match the spoons and ladels too much.

Other restaurant that are gluten friendly (in my experience)

1. Samba at the Mirage (chef understands celiac -- Brazilian BBQ)

2. Stack at Mirage (same thing)

3. Carnegie Deli at the Mirage (get a reuben no bread -- bring your own)

4. PF changs in Aladdin

5. Cafe Ba Ba Reeba in Fashion show Mall (great Paella -- ask for a manager)

6. Maggiano's at Fashion Show Mall ( gluten-free pasta - ask for a chef for selections -- you can do the mussels appetizer - salad with no croutons and dressing on the side, Chicken Vesuvious, etc)

7. Hugo Cellars in 4 Queens Casino (Best Restaurant in Vegas in my opinion) -- Dressy place, in old Vegas, but their Filet and Lobster tail is the best!!!

I will be perfectly happy if I can just gorge myself on crab legs. So you think that those are ok at the Rio? Is the butter safe do you think? I've never been there, but husb has and he really liked it. I want to go somewhere that we can both enjoy.

Prime Steakhouse at the Bellagio has a cold shell fish appertizer that is awesome. Crab legs, mussles, shrimp, oysters. etc. It was very pricey but worth it.

Also, should be gluten-free since it is just fish - right?? I ate there prior to my Dx.

I have to second the Prime Steakhouse for the seafood tower. It will feed two and is a meal in itself. And yes, it is pricey, but totally awesome. I also ate there before Celiac. I would call them and ask, but I don't see how it could have gluten in it. The only concern I have is the sauce, but you could bring your own.

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
