Has anyone had problems eating at pf changs? I am kinda nervous about the cross contamination. I am also wondering if their lettuce wraps were on the gluten free menu. THANK U BERRY MUCH IN ADVANCE~!!! :lol: I was also wondering just for fun, :ph34r: what that guy means. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE STUPID QUESTION IN ADVANCE AGAIN.

I usually eat at the bar. I find they give me extra special attention there and are very careful to be sure my food is gluten-free. I try not to go during rush hour. My favorite is the Changs chicken( it is small pieces of chicken fried with a sweet sauce and the steamed veggies . The lettuce wraps don't fill me up at all. The scallops are real good also. I like the teas (not green teas) Their potato vodka martini's are good too. Don't eat the fortune cookie. I'm on a rice free diet but I eat it there. (Brown Rice) They mix up a good sauce - hot sauce, gluten-free soy sauce and mustard. Yummm -- I bring the leftovers home. LindaLee

The Changs Spicy Chicken really reminds me of Chicken McNuggets, which i think it why i like it so much because sometimes I crave chicken McNuggets even though they're awful and I haven't had one in like 10 years.

I eat there a lot and have never had an issue. The gluten free lettuce wraps are the best food ever. I also had their gluten free chocolate truffle last time. Oh my god, can you spell heaven??

I am pretty sure something made me have a reaction there. I ordered the lettuce wraps and used the sauce that they make up. I thought it was something in the sauce, but not sure. I didn't know you could order gluten free at the time.

if you don't order them gluten free, they will make ones that are NOT gluten free. that's probably why you got sick.

I just went to PF yestarday and

1. The waiter was a good guesser, he thought I had celiac

2. I ate about 15 gluten-free lettuce wraps

3. I had these snappy peas with garlic that were quite tasty

4. My cousin tried to "poison me" with the soy sauce (she thought they were all gluten free)(I forgave her because she just bought me 2 swimsuits :P )

5. I felt sick, not because of gluten-free but because I ate all of there new gluten-free dessert, which is like a chocolate truffle moose :blink: (I don't know how to spel) with this wonderful raspberry sauce. I flatly refused to share and on top of the lettuce wraps and the garlic peas, I was really, really full. Thank u sooooo much for all of your suggestions! I am excited for my b-day dinner so I can go to changs instead of eating at my papas kitchen (which is littarly my papas kitchen. (we go out to dindin on bdays and it was mac's and he chose changs for me so I could eat somthing)

:ph34r: Btw, my favorite explanation was that I am feeling violent, my second was I am a ninja!! :lol:

Wooohooo! I have one right around the corner from my house!

I am brand new at this, both the forum & the disease. My wife and I went to PF Changs last weekend and it was great! Our bartender handed us our gluten-free menu and asked "who has Celiacs?" It was a huge relief I was really worried about eating out. They were helpful and nice and I didn't have a reaction. And the lettuce wraps were great!

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD.   You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD.   You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate).  A magnesium glycinate is fine, too.  Doctor's Best is a good brand.  Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect.   Be sure to take the B Complex.  The Benfotiamine and TTFD will need the other B vitamins.

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.
