Hello fellow Celiacs,

If you live in NY and haven't tried Bistango on 3rd and 29th, you dont know what you're missing! I had the good fortune of finding this Italian restaurant that makes anything on the menu, gluten-free!! I haven't tasted such delicious Italian food like this since I had to go gluten-free 10 years ago. I finally found this place after living in NYC for 4 years (and LI/Queens my whole life). Even my husband who doesnt have celiac disease, loves the food (the regular food and the gluten-free food as well). I found out about this place through a great website called Celiac chicks (which Ive known about for years......probably saw this place listed on there but why I never went there sooner, I have no idea!) Anyway, this helpful website gives lots of gluten-free/celiac disease info. Plus, its a family owned business and the owner is such a nice guy (Anthony), which makes it so much easier and relaxing to eat there. I didnt feel like I had to obssess over whether the food was really gluten-free or that there'd be no CC, like I usually worry at every place I eat at.

So, I hope you try this place and enjoy it as much as I did. I'm a loyal fan. Oh, and by the way, the gluten-free desserts are out of this world!!!! They blew me away!!!!

Happy Eating! :D

If anyone can recommend a gluten-free/celiac disease friendly restaurant in NYC, please do share! (I also found Lili and Loo on Lex. and 62nd which has a gluten-free Chinese menu, also to die for/out of this world delish!!!

Celiac Chicks do have a very helpful website if you're NYC area!

Also check out Open Original Shared Link by a gluten-free (and allergic to nuts and fish, plus I think is non-dairy and if possible kosher) diner. She has a whole list of "safe" restaurants down the right-hand side, some with gluten-free menus and some who don't have a special menu but a very good at dealing with food restrictions.

Will definitely have to try Bistango soon...after I get to Gus's (which we loved in its former incarnation and before I was gluten-free)

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      By yellowstone · Posted

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
