I have been wanting to buy some corn tortillas but haven't been able to find them at my local market.Are they usually found at regular supermarkets or do you get them at health food stores,Whole Foods,etc?

I usually find them at my normal grocery. However, usually the corn tortillas are usually in a refridgerated case unlike the flour ones which are frequently found on shelf in the bread or mexican sections.

I don't know where you are, but here in Southern California they're kind hard to miss! :lol:

I get mine at Ralphs, which is owned by Kroger, and they are located prominently on an endcap.

I have heard, however, that in some parts of the country, decent Mexican food is basically not available :( so you might have to keep searching.

Try asking the manager at your local market.

Also, if there is a Hispanic neighborhood in your area, check there.

If you're feeling adventurous, buy a tortilla press and a bag of masa and make your own!

Caution: it's a lot of work! :rolleyes:

I Southern California every regular grocery store carries corn tortillas. I buy Mission Tortillas. I find them in any regular grocery store. I have also seen them in Walmart. Below is the website for Mission Foods. You may want to contact them to see if any of your local store carry them.

I eat Old El Paso tortillias with no problem and I can get them at the local grocery store.

I get mine at either walmart or our local store.

Sometimes they are by the mexican foods and sometimes they are buy the bread. Depends on the store.

You might try asking next time you're at the store - they're often on an aisle end in the stores I've been at in a number of states.

I tried a few brands of corn tortiallas and i found that the brand Azteca tastes the most like flour tortillas, they are in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, I buy mine at Meijers.

I just wish they made a bigger corn tortilla like the flour ones, the corn ones are small.

Thanks everyone! I checked my local Shaws and found the Mission brand hiding behind their flour tortillas. You've never seen anyone so excited to find tortillas!

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
