Going To Italy For Daughters Wedding


PeggyV

Recommended Posts

I will be going to Rimini Italy in August for my daughters wedding. I am wondering how I will be safe eating out when I cant communicate. Any ideas? My daughter also is gluten intolerant, so it will effect both of us. The last thing we want to do is bloat up and not be able to get into our dresses....

Italy is perhaps the most celiac friendly country in the world. I don't know all the details, but everything is labeled and restaurants know what it is. I assume your daughter is marrying somebody from Italy?

No he is from Italian decent, but actually was born in NY. He always wanted to be married there and he proposed to my daughter in Rome.

She loves Italy also so ......

I'm traveling to Italy (Rome and Naples) in a week. Any advice? I'm a student on a budget, but I'll take whatever I can get. Thank you so much!

I have never been so I dont have travel advise, but if your asking about eating out this is what one of the people on this site, Antonio said to give them. He is Italian.

Hi!

when you will eating out, I can suggest you that is better if you show this message :

____________________________________________________________

Sono Celiaca , quindi non posso mangiare pasta,pizza,pane orzo e farro.

Tutti i cibi che vengono a contatto con la farina non posso mangiarli.

Il riso lo posso mangiare , ma deve essere bollito nella propria acqua.

Grazie mille

I hope you have fun, do a post when you get back and let us know how it was.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
