Traveling To The Knoxville, Tn Area

My parents live in Loudon, TN, near Knoxville and I'll be going to visit them next month. I've only been there one other time since I started eating gluten-free, and that was when I just started. We found one restaurant in the area that had a wonderful gluten-free menu (not sure of the name, Season's maybe?). Does anyone have other suggestions?

My mom discovered her grocery store has a decent gluten free section, but I also wondered if anyone has favorites or knows of a good health food store in the area?

Thanks!

Donna

You can get gluten-free pizza at Roman's in Knoxville. Call ahead or be prepared to wait. I'm walking out the door but I'll come back and share what I know.

Here is some information on Roman's Pizza as posted by another. I have yet to go there. I'm about 70 miles from Knoxville and we go there several times a year to a specialist. If you try it let us know.

Also I know there is an Earth Fare in Knoxville. You can go on Earth Fare's website and search locations. I'm sure there are other places, but I am not that familure with Knoxville.

Okay, so here's what I know. :)

This is a yummy place that can make most things gluten-free. It's not too expensive, either.

Go Nutrition is at 10961 Kingston Pike in Farragut. It's a small, privately owned store with a good selection and good prices.

We have a new Pei Wei in Turkey Creek. I've never been to one but you'll hear about it on this board.

This is a really new completely gluten-free place in at 5211 Kingston Pike. It's close to Wok Hay. I've eaten there once. The sandwich was okay. The dessert was great. It seemed pricey to me.

Something Savory in Maryville, 541 High Street. I haven't eaten here, but it gets RAVE reviews locally. It's not totally gluten-free but the owner is very savvy. Really, the only thing keeping me away is that it's 45 minutes away.

I haven't eaten at Seasons but my friend and her husband love it. It's far nicer than any of the places I've posted about. I keep pestering my husband to take me there!

Hope this helps. Enjoy your visit!

Thank you both for the info! It gives me a good amount to work with for our trip!

TrillumHunter, I talked to my mom and she confirmed that the restaurant we went to on our last visist was Seasons. I highly recommend your husband takes you there! :D

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
