I am going to a 3 day conference in Marlboro Ma. next week. I read on this thread that someone had a good experience at Longhorns in Marlboro. Are there any other good gluten free dining options there? Chinese perhaps?? Thanks!

Are you looking to stay right in Marlborough, MA or are you willing to travel a little to eat? I only ask because I live very near there and am familiar with all the restaurants. Marlborough has very limited options for gluten-free dining and I usually never go to any of the restaurants there. There is a Longhorn's, right near to all the hotels on Rt. 20 but I wasn't impressed with them and have never gone back. More of a family place so it's noisy and the menu is just so-so. Not bad if you need to eat but not my first choice.

Check out: boyntonrestaurant.com They are in Worcester, about 20 minutes from where you will be and are easy to find....close to Rt. 290. On Wednesday nights they have a gluten-free menu for dinner and everyday they serve the best, fresh gluten-free pizza I've had in a long time. Very, very good. They are knowledgeable about celiac disease also so you can relax when ordering. Do a google for directions....it's not difficult to find at all. It's very popular there so at peak times you may have to wait. It's a pub style restaurant....very casual.

There is also an Outback in Westborough.....again, not a far ride and right off the highway.

There is a very good restaurant in Hudson, Ma., about 10 minutes from the hotel district in Marlborough called Chloe's Bistro. Website is: chloebistro.com. There is a waitress there with a Celiac husband and she is great at helping you with the menu. Can't remember her name but she has long, dark hair and is very chatty.....nice lady. I have had excellent luck getting a good, safe meal there and the food is really good....more high end but not a budget buster.

No gluten-free menu but the chef will listen and accommodate.

These are the best of what you can expect for the area, without traveling far. Marlborough is filled with more family type places to go so I haven't had much luck with dining out there. There is another place called Allora which is right near to the hotels but I checked out their menu and there wasn't much I saw that a Celiac could eat. Too much pasta and sauces so I haven't gone there.

Good luck to you and if you have questions, don't be shy!

Thanks. I will be at a conference in the hotel district. I am actually staying in Newton with my boyfriend, but wanted a close by restaurant that I could go to with my coworkers who will be staying in the hotel district in Marlboro. I would love to check out the Woester place, but I don't think they will want to drive that far. Maybe I will check out Chloe's.

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD.   You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD.   You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate).  A magnesium glycinate is fine, too.  Doctor's Best is a good brand.  Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect.   Be sure to take the B Complex.  The Benfotiamine and TTFD will need the other B vitamins.

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.
