Cantina Laredo

Just wanted to let everyone know that Cantina Laredo has a great gluten-free menu. You can even eat the chips and salsa (the red, not green). I live in Arizona, but the restaurant is also in Texas. Each time I go to Cantina Laredo, the waiter seems very knowledgeable. I've been several times and have never had any problems. The gluten-free menu also has more than just a couple of items on it. Hope that gives some of you one more place to out.

Hi Jenny!

Just wondering if you've been to any of the ones in TX?

I was just curious if one was any better than another.

Thx!

Sorry, but I haven't been to any of the ones in TX. I get back to Dallas 4-6 times a year and I'm going to try it on my next visit. I think Cantina Laredo started there. I love going there because I love Mexican food and don't have to worry about every little thing there! I don't know what part of Texas you are in, but there is another restaurant that I did go to, not Cantina. It was a seafood place. Sorry I can't remember the name. I'll ask my sister where we went if you want to know. It was in a new shopping center in Highland Village.

I also heard about a great gluten-free restaurant in Plano. I'll have to look for the name of that also. If you are in the Dallas area and know of some great restaurants, please let me know. Sorry about the rambling, but I get so excited when I go to a restaurant with a gluten-free menu.

When you do make it to one in Texas, I'd be curious to know what you think!

I'm in the north Dallas area, so if you can find out the name of the seafood place, I'd love to go try it out.

I don't get over towards Highland Village very often (unless I'm going to visit the in-laws), but I'll keep an eye open the next time I'm over that way to see if I can spot it.

I'll bet the place in Plano you're thinking of is Delicious N Fit/Laura's Bistro. I've heard that's really good too, but haven't been there yet.

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for other restaurants, and if I discover any I'll definitely let you know!

I will let you know when I go to one in Dallas. It will probably be around the end of the year. Also I will try to PM you if I can figure out how to do this. There used to be a Cantina Laredo in Addison off of Beltline. Also one further north I think off of North Dallas Toll Road (maybe around Frankford?)

Well, I'm always around, so next time you come this way, maybe we can go visit one of these places together! :)

In case you have trouble with the PM feature, just click on my username, and then click 'Send Message'.

Hope that helps!

You just ask for it when you go to the restaurant. It's printed out, so you don't have to worry what's what. I live in Arizona, so I don't know if they all have the menu, but I would think they would. You may want to call first and ask for the manager. We go to the one out here quite often and never a problem.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

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.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
