I Don'T Know If I Can Do This...

I think it is AWESOME that you are seeing results and finding the "light" at the end of the tunnel. It took me a couple of weeks to get over the initial shock. I am SOOOOO not perfect yet, but I am starting to see the positive side of this and am really ok with it now.

I hope everything continues to go well for you!!!

I am really, really glad that it looks like it's working. Hopefully, it keeps working.

Wow that's so great!! I'll have to write all these restaurants down as you post. ;)

In N Out is very accomodating. I called their corporate office and they were wonderful on the phone.

We haven't eaten out that much yet. I wonder if the Yard House has any gluten free beer??? With all the ones they have on tap there has to be something right?

You might not be able to have Guinness, but as I recall, most pubs have cider, and nobody will look at you weird for ordering it or asking for it. The bartenders there suggested it to me often, because in their experience, the "yanks" knew about guinness, but the cider was something new to share!

Bulmers is one of the more popular brands, and they confirm on their website that the pear cider is gluten free... they don't mention the others (the pear is new, so their FAQ is all about it), but various places on the web say it's gluten free.

* Bulmers Original Cider

* Bulmers Pear Cider

* Bulmers Mid-Strength

* Bulmers Light

* Linden Village Cider

* Strongbow Cider

* Samsons Cider

* Ritz Crisp Dry Perry

They're sold outside Ireland under the brand name Magners. I can confirm that the original, the pear, and Strongbow are all really good! A lot of the pubs here in the US carry Strongbow cider.

Also, cider sold under then name Bulmer outside Ireland (the name is owned by Heineken outside Ireland...Bulmers Ireland uses Magners outside IE) in original and pear is gluten free.

I guess when my friends are all having a beer I'll have to have cider instead. I'm a skydiver...that's going to be tough for me. Beer is part of our culture. Whenever you do something for the first time (get your license, have a parachute malfunction and use your reserve, do something really cool), we say you "owe beer", which means you bring beer for all your friends so you can all sit around the bonfire and share the beer and the story. My headaches have pretty much kept me on the ground for the last few years. Maybe going gluten free will get my butt back up in the air. I'll just have to be sure to keep some cider in the cooler.

Thank you for the cider information. It had completely slipped my mind. I have been a wine, gluten-free beer, margarita or rum drinker since starting my "diet exploration". This just gives me another option and the fun of find the one I like the best..

Going Gluten Free does not mean missing out! You will find that many no-gluten-free persons have not tried all the things you will. Ground Wheat flour is easy "sorghum" rice or almond flour is branching out trying new things and some really tasty treats as well.

that's great that you're not feeling all deprived and that you're still getting out.

Normally I don't prefer Outback (I think they're very overpriced!) but heck, if they have a gluten free menu, I might just put them back on the list of places to eat.

My Australian friends think its funny though. It's not really Australian food. ;)

Their gluten-free menu is about five pages long! There's tons of choices! It mostly tells how to modify the regular menu items, like:

"Victoria Filet Mignon, 7 or 9 oz. gluten-free- Avoid bleu cheese or horseradish crumb crust"

Or points out which items are gluten-free to begin with, like the dessert with the flourless chocolate brownie and ice cream.

      Is AG1 safe for Celiacs??

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      GLUTEN EASE TABLETS DONT WORK

      "Vitamin D, as an immune modulator, is known to regulate immune response and maybe implicated in disease pathogenesis or susceptibility of celiac disease. Components of the immune system, such as B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, and dendritic cells, are influenced by the regulatory effects of Vitamin D ... Increasing evidence also suggests that Vitamin D deficiency...

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Great question! Even if some individuals with celiac disease don’t experience immediate villi damage from occasional cross-contamination, it’s still strongly recommended to maintain strict avoidance of gluten. The immune response triggered by gluten can vary between individuals, and even small amounts may cause systemic inflammation or other symptoms, even if intestinal damage isn’t immediately detectable. Additionally, repeated exposure—even at low levels—could lead to cumulative harm over time. Strict avoidance of cross-contamination remains the safest approach to prevent long-term complications and ensure overall health. Everyone’s sensitivity differs, so working with a healthcare provider to tailor precautions is ideal.
