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.

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Aldi Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

"Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."
