Hi Rachel,

I'm from Granby ... i dont know if you are making your own bread. But there is a place in

St-hyacinthe ... her little girl has coeliac disease and she opened a little boutique gluten free

it's call Les glutineries there's one in brossard to, but the one in st-hyacinthe is a lot better.

she has a web site www.lesglutineries.com

She does a very delicious bread (corn) ... you really must try it!!! it's worth the ride I'm telling

you. She does lot a good meal it's all home made ...

What king of bread are you eating??

isabelle :rolleyes:

Allo Isabelle,

I've been shopping at Les glutineries in Brossard. I usually get her bread, the white bread made with rice. I find it very good. My mother has made some different type breads in her bread maker but I find them to be very crummy. Unless you toast the bread, it breaks up into pieces and it's very difficult to eat a sandwich.

I found that some of the food sold at Les glutineries is also sold at Loblaws and it's cheaper.

I just bought today des pat

Hiya Rachel,

I'm from Montreal as well. and, like you, I am newly diagnosed. I am also trying to find places for specialty foods.

I have heard that Marie Nature in Laval is a very good place. I hope to go there sometime in the next week.

Hey Rachel,

I also live near the Montreal area - in Laval. And you can definitely find gluten free foods at some IGA's, and Loblaws'. There is also a factory called "Glutino" in Laval located in Fabreville. They have breads, bread crums, different types of flours, cereals, hamburger buns, etc. I usually get my gluten free food from IGA and the Glutino factory only if I couldn't find what I wanted/needed at IGA.

There is also a Gluten free restaurant located in Laval and another one in St-Laurent not far from Cote-Vertu metro called "Ottavio". Commensal also has gluten free meals as well.

Does anyone else know of any other restaurants that are gluten free? I feel like I miss out on a lot of social gatherings because of my new-found allergy to gluten. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks :)

Few readers contacted me and asked me about this company.

Well the taste is amazing, non Celiac family members who tasted it did not believe/noticed it's Gluten Free.

They moved to a new location

so their phone number changed and it is now:

514-6870161, If they line is busy they always call back.

So leave a message and they will call you back.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
