Ahhhhhhhhh Bali .. . ...I've been there a few times - just spectacular. It was years before gluten-free so no specific tips I'm afraid.

But if you're staying at an east-side resort, I'd bet it'll be pretty easy.

Good luck tho, and have a great time.

IF your 5 year old likes fruit, she will be able to try some of the best in the world like mangosteen, duku, sweet white guava and salak.

There are plenty of rice dishes and rice noodles too although they may have to tone down the spices for her.

Good luck and have a great trip

I am new to all of this, just being diagnosed and I am getting married in a few weeks and going to Bali as well for our honeymoon. Did you receive any responses or help with your question? Can you pass any of it on to me? Thank you!

Hi there Lynne,

I am new to this forum, Just joined a couple of minutes ago.

I know that this posting is about 3-4 months behind. I read with interest on your plight before such a trip, given the circumstances. I just have to add my 2 cents worth. May come in useful for future trip to Indonesia.

In Bali (Indonesia), it is not difficult to have gluten free meals. The important part is to ask for it during ordering, and making very sure that the restaurant staff understood the request.

Do not be bashful or shy in asking. Balinese are traditionally very helpful and kind.

Do tell me how was your holiday in Bali. Enjoyed the great food over there? I bet you did !!

Cheers ... Giovanni John B)

Hi Kerry,

I wrote a reply earlier on but was removed. Probably violated some of the board rules.

Anyway, Bali is very exposed to the international community. As such, the Balinese are quite informed and will provide you with Gluten-Free foods. However, You have to let the restaurant staff know and more importantly, you have to make sure that they understand your request.

Have a great holiday in Bali and enjoy the food and sun there ... and have a swell HoneyMoon !!

Good Lucks and Cheers ... B)

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
