I wanted to let everyone know that I just found out about another Chinese restaurant that has a gluten free menu. It is called Gourmetland and they are in NYC. The gluten-free menu is small but heard that they can accomodate almost anything on their menu to be gluten free. Sure enough I decided to call and see because the Ginger Spareribs had be drooling. I spoke with one of the owners, who was an absolute doll, and she assured me that almost anything on their menu can be made gluten-free including the spareribs.

They started the menu after their best friend was diagnosed with celiac and said he desperately missed Chinese food. I talked to her for awhile and she assured me they are pretty much narotic about making sure there is no cross contamination. They really seem very educated about celiac and extremely vigilant about making it a wonderful experience for us.

This isn't their official website but it has the menu.

I'm supposed to be going to Risotteria for dinner tomorrow night with girlfriends, but I might have to request a change of plans to try this one :)

Just wanted to say that I went to Gourmetland -- the gluten-free menu had about half a dozen items on it, and the food itself wasn't authentic (i.e. Americanized-Chinese food). But it was really nice to have something with soy sauce in a Chinese restaurant and know that it was safe! And the service was really great -- they seemed to be pretty informed about gluten-free foods.

      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:

      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).
