I found this great restaurant on glutenfreerestaurants.com.

Ciao's

5-7 John R Albanese Place

Eastchester, NY 10709

914-779-4646

I drove 35 miles to this restaurant in Westchester county from Long Island and it was certainly worth the trip.

The owner is extremely knowledgeable about celiac and how to prepare safe gluten-free meals. The grill in this restaurant is exclusively gluten-free. They offer gluten-free pastas, chicken, fish, veal, steaks and so much more. It was a great experience and I highly reccommend it.

I checked them out on-line what a great menu. You are so lucky. Thanks for the link glutenfreerestaurants.com

I headed there to see if anything is listed in my area. What happened to the midwest? Not a single listing. Bum.

You folks in the NE are so lucky.

Funny you should mention this place. We were just randomly talking about it over dinner about an hour ago.

Can I ask what you got there?

I went there when I was first diagnosed, had one of their pasta dishes and thought it was horrendous. I think I took about 3 bites and then just pushed the food around my plate.

I was just saying at dinner tonight how thank G-d I had already tried gluten free pasta for myself before going here otherwise I might have assumed that all gluten-free pasta was awful.

All that said, it was over a year ago that I was there and it is very possible they have changed pastas and made improvements since then.

Glad to hear you had a good experience.

I did not eat any of the pastas since I eat that at home. We ordered the Chicken Malanzana (has eggplant, mozzarella, and prosciutto) and the grilled rib steak. They were excellent. I still reccommend this place. Sorry to hear that your pasta was bad. I'll ask which brand they use before I order next time.

Hmmmm... well both of those sound yummy. Maybe I'll have to give them a second chance.

I'm finding it slightly humourous that I live in Westchester and drive out by you to go to Mama's and you live in Long Island and are driving by me to go to Ciao. LOL!!

My brother and sister-in-law live up in Westchester so that's why we are up there. Besides there are more gluten-free restaurants in Weschester ( 8) than on Long Island (2). I like Mama's but I've gotten sick with their chicken parm twice. Have you tried Four Doors Down in Buchanan? I'm thinking of going there next.

Is there any update about this restaurant? We are going to a party there. Just seeing if I can safely order a meal for my daughter. I called and they assured me they can do a safe gluten free meal and they've had no complaints.

In the 10 years since the last post, this place may have figured gluten-free out.  So I wouldn't trust any reviews that old.  You might check "Find Me Gluten Free" and see if there are newer reviews

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

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.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
