Tournaments!

Hey everybody, I play college ultimate frisbee and we have a series of tournaments coming, the first of which is about a 4-5 hour drive from where I go to school.

I often see people post that they feel safe eating chinese food, and I was wondering what people order at chinese restaurants? I know we can't eat soy sauce, so the CC risk has me pretty nervous...are there staple menu items that people generally find safe or do you have to describe a dish they don't advertise?

I'm going to try to cook myself a lot of food the day I leave, but I'll be gone friday-sunday which, especially for a 19 year year old guy is a lot of meal times to fill in.

Thanks a lot.

I traval alot and pack a lot of foods to carry along with me. Nuts, crackers, dried fruits, cheese, packaged meat.

I find these bang around good in a back pack. I have a back pack that is my portable kitchen. Bring a can opener.

I also my bake cookies or muffins so I do not feel deprived. I try to eat out one meal a day.

Look at the Boston market and Wendy's site, many chains have food allergy charts. I ask to see them.

( at Wendy's you can eat a ceaser salad and cheese and bacon baked potato and frosties)

Your meals may be odd but it is only for a weekend. I always tell my server that wheat is like poison ivy to me and they get it. Some time they even already know someone that is gluten free. That helps.

Good luck

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      By Idnam · Posted

      They do work for me. I am feeling much better now that I am watching my histamine intake and only take the DAO once  a day.   I had acid reflux for 12 years and was prescribed PPI's.  which I refused to take. Ranitidine was prescribed as an option that I did use only as and when I had chest pain. They were prescribed for me to reduce the acid in my body.

      This is difficult for me to deal with.  B complex is what stands between me and migraines.  Whenever I stop B for just a few days, I get a migraine.  All my adult life I would get a violent migraine for 3 days like clockwork until a doctor told me to try B complex and it worked.  The only time I get a migraine is when I've run out of B.  This has worked for me for over 15 years.  I am soon to be 79.   My cardiologist has me stop all vitamins for about 3 days and I always have a migraine when I go in for the bloodwork.   D level is nearly at optimal.  I don't take A, I get enough from food.   What a dilemma!

      What apps or tech tools help you manage celiac disease?

      I think the best approach is to lean how to read product labels, especially the allergen warnings, and these lists might be helpful:

      Any bad experience with King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It looks like you are referring to this product: https://shop.kingarthurbaking.com/items/gluten-free-bread-flour Their site says: "Made with gluten-free wheat starch to give baked goods incredible taste and texture, it’s ideal for classic yeasted recipes like artisan boules, bagels, cinnamon rolls, and burger buns", and it is true that Codex quality wheat starch is gluten-free, and does make better baked goods. However, it also contains very low levels of gluten (under 20ppm), and some celiacs do react to this level, so if you are super sensitive it's best to avoid it. They also make this very similar product, which doesn't include any wheat ingredient, and is certified gluten-free: https://shop.kingarthurbaking.com/items/gluten-free-bread-flour Although labeling products in the USA as "gluten-free" that contain such wheat starch is relatively new, it has been offered in Europe for decades. You can read more about studies on it here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/

      Our Functional Medicine doctor has always ordered the Spectracell Test for Micronutrient Deficiencies.  It tests the intracellular levels of the nutrients, not blood levels.  When high dose, targeted supplementation did not resolve the deficiencies after retesting at 6 months and then a year, he ordered genetic tests.  I have a genetic inability to process Vitamin D, B12 and antioxidants, so I am on high doses of those for life.  The rest of the initial deficiencies resolved within 6 months to a year and a good multi vitamin is sufficient to address those.  My husband has historically had high homocysteine levels and his low folate, B 12 and B6  levels are because of his MTHFR gene mutation.  Always good to get to the root cause!
