Hi, welcome! I don't have an answer for you, but I'm glad you asked because I'll be in Grand Cayman in a little over a month! :D Eagerly awaiting answers, lol.

I have never been there but I did go to Mexico and the Bahamas a few months ago. I contacted my hotel before I went and they said they could accommodate me. They were wonderful and introduced me to the chef and made sure that my food was very safe. They even made me "take out" food to take on day trips and to the airport.

I also didn't have a problem getting food into the country - or into the Bahamas. I usually clear out the minibar and put my food in there, or if there isn't a minibar/fridge, I just bring a small cooler and check it. I brought tons of food so I never went hungry.

I would contact the hotel and see what they say. If it is a big resort there may be some good international chefs working there that are well trained.

Good luck and have a great trip!

Would you mind sharing the name of the resort/hotel where you stayed?

Thanks,

I have never been but I am interested in the answer. Maybe I'll put it on my place to visit list.

I went on a cruise, so ate mostly on the ship. We had a shore excursion planned for Grand Cayman, but that got cancelled, so mainly we just walked around the port area then went back to the ship to eat. So, sorry but can't help on hotels or good places to eat. The up side is that we had a great time, lol. :lol:

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
