Beau Jo's has gluten-free pizza and I've heard good things about a gluten-free place called Deby's.

I hate telling people to do searches, but there are so many threads on Denver...you might get some good ideas if you go to the travel forum and put "Denver" in as a key word (if you haven't already). Have a good trip.

Deby's Gluten Free is a eat in/take out cafe and gluten-free bakery and mini market. This is the menu to the cafe, and many other items are also available in the bakery and they carry lots of gluten-free packaged grocery items as well. There are 2 locations, the website I see only lists one so you can call to see if the other location is more convenient-

Mango is correct Beau Jo's has a gluten-free pizza menu, a few metro area locations-

Menu: Open Original Shared Link

Locations: Open Original Shared Link

Here is also the dining out guide from the Celiac Sprue Association Denver Chapter (I am not sure how current this list is):

Open Original Shared Link

Also there are many metro area Vitamin Cottage locations (a small locally owned and family operated health food store, they carry lots of gluten free items). There are also several Wild Oats and Whole Foods.

i was traveling and had a stop in Denver. I ate at a place called Steubens. It had a dedicated gluten-free menu. It is a very cute place with a nice outdoor patio too. Food was excellent - it was comfort food and sooooo good. i highly recommend. Their sister restaurant is called Vesta Dipping Grill. Its apparently a little nicer and pricier, but also has a gluten-free menu.

Besides the typical chains there is a great italian place that has a great gluten-free menu. I have been there once and had a great experience. It is Open Original Shared Link.

I love Steuben's. Great place for safe, gluten-free yummy food.

Beau Jo's gluten-free pizza is fantastic, the crusts are made by Deby's as are the desserts. They also carry gluten-free beer.

Abruscis is very good, I think you need to call ahead for certain items like meatballs.

Here is part of our monthly Denver newsletter that refears to restaurants. Hopefully that helps:

Celiac Friendly Restaurants

The Stone Church in Castle Rock has a gluten-free menu,

food is fantastic. Eating out is fun again. This place

really does accommodate celiacs. Not the usual

story of simply omitting offending items. There is

even a dessert choice which is not fruit or ice cream.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
