Just wondering if any one knows for sure, whether the southwestern salad (with glazed chicken) is gluten free?

I have been trying to find out myself without any luck?

McDonalds does not have that on there gluten free list!

They even say the grilled chicken on salads may come into contact with teh breaded chicken breasts.

Ask before eating....talk to a manager and explain...they have been great with me and I have had no obvious syptoms!

Good luck....there is a topic going on right now....I believe it's called " I'm going to starve to Death"....there is a link to McD's web site on there!!!

Keep in mind that list is three years old, so it's quite outdated. Best to check McD's website for allergen information.

It struck me as ironic to read this while eating fast food from Wendy's...

A sour cream baked potato and a small chili - $2.00

Who say eating out gluten-free has to be expensive? :-)

I know, I've eaten there several times.

      Help with genetic testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The genetic testing results you provided indicate that your child carries two copies of the HLA-DQ2.5 beta chain (DQ Beta 1 *02:01, *02:01), which is a high-risk genetic marker for celiac disease. However, the alpha chain (DQ Alpha 1 *05:01, *05) is only partially present, as HLA-DQ2.5 typically requires the alpha chain *05:01 paired with the beta chain 02:01. Since your child has two copies of the beta chain (02:01) but only one full *05:01 alpha allele (the other appears truncated as *05), this suggests they are heterozygous for HLA-DQ2.5 rather than homozygous. The term "permissive for celiac disease" means your child has genetic susceptibility but not necessarily the highest-risk genotype (homozygous DQ2.5). Since celiac disease development also depends on environmental triggers and other factors, further testing (such as antibody screening or biopsy) may be needed to confirm a diagnosis. Consulting a genetic counselor or gastroenterologist can help clarify these results and next steps.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By DebJ14 · Posted

      As my doctor said, you don't have to eat breakfast food for breakfast.  I may have a leftover piece of chicken and left over squash or eggs or I am actually more likely to skip breakfast as I do intermittent fasting.  In that case I eat lunch around 11:30 and have some guacamole and a salad with chicken or tuna.  For dinner I have pork, shrimp, chicken, lamb, or turkey with half a baked sweet potato and some broccoli, green beans, beets, carrots or cauliflower.  I do not eat any grains on the advice of my doctor.  I do not eat commercially processed products, even if they say they are gluten-free.  I make Warrior Bread every few weeks.  It has no yeast and contains almond flour and dried sweet potato.  Very tasty too.  A good book to help in this regard is No Grain, No Pain by Peter Osborne.  Thankfully, I can eat coconut and nuts and use those flours in baking and also use nut milks in cooking.  Since I am allergic to chocolate and vanilla, lemon is my go to flavor for something sweet.  My migraines totally disappeared once I went gluten and casein free.  I can occasionally eat certain high fat cheeses that are low in casein, as well as grass fed butter.  I use lots of Organic Olive and Avocado oil. The problems I thought I had with nightshades went away when I went fully organic.  And, the rest of my issues went away by avoiding the foods I tested positive to as well as avoiding all grains. I will be the first one to say that it is a very expensive way of eating, but thankfully we can afford to eat that way.  The good news is that I take no prescription meds at age 72.  At 54 before diagnosis, I was a mess and on a boatload of pharmaceuticals.
