Traveling To Ecuador And Colombia

Hi All:

In a few months I will be travelling to Ecuador and Colombia and will be there for about 6-8 weeks. I will be only eating out and was wondering if anyone here knew what foods are gluten free that I could order?

Or what staple foods could I rely on to get me through. I have never been to these places before and not sure of what their markets will have. Can anyone shed some light?

Thanks

SydneyGF

Hi,

I haven't been to Ecuador or Colombia either, but I know that fruits and veggies are always available and that meat, especially in Colombia, is a major staple. From living in Mexico for a few years, I found that the foods prepared in the smaller local restaurants didn't have flours or starches added to them. I'm sure if you do a websearch for the cities you're going to you could find a lot of information that other tourists have posted.

I've been to Ecuador, but I wasn't gluten-free back then. There is always lots of fresh fruit.

Okay, I just completely lost my train of thought. I'll get back and post later. I think I need to have a snack. LOL

Are you traveling by yourself or with a group? Colombia World Tours offers gluten-free options on all of their trips throughout the country.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
