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)

      If a Celiac person is successful in following a gluten-free diet, they can go into remission.   They may not have a reaction to gluten without a precipitating event like an injury or infection or even emotional or mental stress.   Following a strict gluten-free diet at home, then indulging in gluten containing products abroad without a reaction can be explained by this remission.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Hi Theresa,  A few of my friends have your same story. You may be right about barley, etc.  18 years ago at a football game while clapping, suddenly my 4th finger was in agony.  It looked like a vein had burst. It was blue for a couple hours, then disappeared.  Finally realized it happened every time when drinking beer.  It's occurred several times over the years when opening a jar, lifting something that was a bit heavy, holding on to tight to something.  Immediate icing stops the pain and discoloration.  Now avoiding wheat in the US, it rarely happens.  Thanks for the reminder.  Will have Entero Labs run another test. Unfortunately they've relocated to Switzerland/Greece.

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies
