Eating Out: Finally Having Success!

I just wanted to share my experiences of eating out lately without getting sick.

Chipotle:

I went to Chipotle and had their chicken burrito bowl with guacamole and chips. I tried to ask the server to change her gloves as others have recommended, but she couldn't understand me (language gap) and everything still turned out great! I didn't get sick and have gone back again since (I don't ask about the gloves - most everything is scooped out with serving spoons anyway). Everything is gluten free except the tortillas and the hot salsa.

Red Robin:

This was a wonderful experience because I could actually get a burger and fries! They have a gluten free menu that the server will bring to you if you ask for it. They offer burgers with "lettuce buns" on their regular menu too so you don't feel crazy ordering it and it is SO nice to eat a burger with your hands again!

Chili's:

They have a gluten free menu. I wasn't too excited about what I ordered, but I was very excited that I was able to order and not get sick!

It is so liberating to be able to eat out once and awhile!

Best,

Emily

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      Thank you for your reply Knitty Kitty (from a fellow knitter) My TSH and T4 is within normal range, and has been checked along with the rest of my bloodwork consistently over the past many years. I am very aware of Hashimoto's since my mom has it  (she does not have celiac disease, her other autoimmune disease is diabetes (which I am monitored for but don't have - I "only" have allergies).  And yes - I eat iodized salt to protect my thyroid. Good suggestions though and thank you for the links.

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Progesterone stimulates the thyroid.  The thyroid stimulates the immune system which increases production of IgG antibodies.   Progesterone Upregulates Gene Expression in Normal Human Thyroid Follicular Cells https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4454767/ Celiac Disease and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: The Two Peas in a Pod https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9312543/

      @Mettedkny, Have you had your thyroid checked lately?  People with thyroid problems like Hashimoto's thyroiditis produce tTg IgG antibodies whether exposed to gluten or not.  Hashimoto's is another autoimmune disease frequently found with Celiac disease.  Do you eat iodized salt or sea salt?   P. S.  Progesterone stimulates the thyroid.  The thyroid stimulates the immune system which increases production of IgG antibodies.   Progesterone Upregulates Gene Expression in Normal Human Thyroid Follicular Cells https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4454767/ Celiac Disease and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: The Two Peas in a Pod https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9312543/

      Then it sounds like the thing you really need to focus more on is being more consistent with the gluten-free diet. Another suggestion I would make is to avoid using a lot of pre-made gluten-free food. Gluten-free facsimile flours are not enriched like their wheat counterpart and are full of empty calories. Focus on naturally gluten free foods that are nutrient and calorie dense. Have you had your vitamin D3 levels checked?
