Darn...just as I've sent most of them out I get an e-mail today. A June update:

Hello Yaks!

Just wanted to let you know that the updated version (for June 2005) of the SillyYak restaurant guide is now on the site (and all SY members should be receiving a copy of it on June 1st via automated email anyway). 

Well..... there are now 213 listings on it.....  (yes, some are old entries and some restaurants opted to not share any options even after numerous requests, but at least most of the legwork is done for you and the majority of the list is current). 

I have been trying to update some of the older entries, but some of those particular entries are for restaurants that are not in our geographic area, so they aren't on my priority list.

You must have the most current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader to view/download/print this guidebook.  Also, it can be uploaded to many PDA's, but you will have to figure out the logistics on that one.  I upload it to mine every month.

I didn't realize that there were over 200 listings on it thus far!  Enjoy!

Have a nice Memorial Day Weekend!

~Melonie :)

The new one is 143 pages. I'll keep you guys updated. I can either send you the new one now (143 pgs. or you can wait another two months or so for the next one). Your choice ;) Just e-mail me again or post here if you want the new one. I'm now sending out the new one to aljf and whoever else inquires about it.

Just diagnosed yesterday... I would love it (as would my wife) if you could send me that list to kevinkawa@walla.com. Thanks!

Sent. Sorry to make these posts, but it makes it easier to tell who I've sent it to and in case the intended recipient doesn't receive the file, at least he or she knows I tried to send it and can ask again.

Woohoo, 2400! lol...didn't realize it until after I posted :lol:

You're really nice to do this celiac3270, I would've posted the SillyYaks URL and said join the message board, it's great and has all sorts of great information including restaurants and recipes.

I would recommend that you join, everyone :D

Open Original Shared Link

I'm happy to send the list and am still getting requests. The site has a constantly updating restaurant list, recipe database, e-mail responses from companies are uploaded, as well as member discounts:

10% at Gluten Solutions: Open Original Shared Link

10% at Miss Roben's/Allery Grocer: Open Original Shared Link

I'm not sure how much at Gluten-Free Savonnerie: Open Original Shared Link . Someone posts at the board with updates on discounts and sales available multiple times a month.

5% at the Gluten Free Pantry: Open Original Shared Link

Some of these sites use special links and others have a code you enter at checkout. Am I allowed to post the links and stuff here? I'll ask Melonie if she would mind, but it's worth joining, anyway.

celiac3270, did I read that you have a list of gluten-free restaurants? I am going to Taos, Santa Fe and Albuquerque New Mexico next week and I need to know where I can eat.

If anyone knows any places in these towns, I would love the help!

Thank you,

Fonda

About Nashville:

Bonefish grill is a place we can eat at. My parents (My Mom has Celiacs, too) visited a location of theirs in Chattanooga but they have one in Nashville, too. They both enjoyed their appetizers but both didn't enjoy their main meals. That doesn't mean it's all bad but that was their only time there.

Oh, I know!  I'll e-mail you a file I have--I posted about it a few months ago, but I have an even newer version now--it's a 136 page Adobe file and it has menus/statements from all chain restaurants, plus a more specific list in certain states: New York, California, Oregon, Rhode Island, Virginia, Washington, and Washington DC.  Send me your e-mail address if you want it--the same applies to anyone else.  125 of the 136 pages are chains, nearly all of which would be found in Tenn.  LOL...just make sure you specify the restaurant file, since I still have a steady stream of Delphi Food List file requests :lol:

BTW, got it from Yahoo support group, Silly Yaks.

Hey, sorry if I'm doing this wrong...my first post. But do you still have that list? If you do could you please send to gina_8899@yahoo.com? My brother is coming to visit me next week in Virginia, and I don't know where to eat besides some of the obvious places.

Thanks for any help you can provide-

      Fermented foods, Kefir, Kombucha?

      I have read fermented foods like sauerkraut, pickles, Kefir, Kombucha are great for gut health besides probiotics. However I have searched and read about ones that were tested (Kefir, Kombucha) and there is no clear one that is very helpful. Has anyone take Kefir, Kombucha and noticed a difference in gut health? I read one is lactose free but when tested...

      Blood tests for thiamine are unreliable. The nutrients from your food get absorbed into the bloodstream and travel around the body. So, a steak dinner can falsely raise thiamine blood levels in the following days. Besides, thiamine is utilized inside cells where stores of thiamine are impossible to measure. A better test to ask for is the Erythrocyte...

      Neither of them were anemic 6 months after the Celiac diagnosis. His other vitamin levels (d, B12) were never low. My daughters levels were normal after the first 6 months. Is the thiamine test just called thiamine?

      Yes, I do think they need a Thiamine supplement at least. Especially since they eat red meat only occasionally. Most fruits and vegetables are not good sources of Thiamine. Legumes (beans) do contain thiamine. Fruits and veggies do have some of the other B vitamins, but thiamine B 1 and Cobalamine B12 are mostly found in meats. Meat, especially organ...

I read one is lactose free but when tested was high in lactose so I would probably try a non dairy one. Thanks

      Thanks again for the detailed explanation. Just to clarify, I actually did have my initial tests done while I was still consuming gluten. I stopped eating gluten only after those tests were completed, and it has now been about 70 days since I went gluten-free. I understand the limitations around diagnosing NCGS and the importance of antibody testing and biopsy for celiac disease. Unfortunately, where I live, access to comprehensive testing (including total IgA and endoscopy with biopsy) is limited, which makes things more complicated. Your explanation about small-bowel damage, nutrient absorption, and iron-deficiency anemia still aligns closely with my history, and it’s been very helpful in understanding what may be going on. I don't wanna get Endoscopy and I can't start eating Gluten again because it's hurt really with severe diarrhea.  I appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed and informative guidance. Thank you so much for this detailed and thoughtful response. I really appreciate you pointing out the relationship between anemia and antibody patterns, and how the high DGP IgG still supports celiac disease in my case. A gluten challenge isn’t something I feel safe attempting due to how severe my reactions were, so your suggestion about genetic testing makes a lot of sense. I’ll look into whether HLA testing is available where I live and discuss it with my doctor. I also appreciate you mentioning gastrointestinal beriberi and thiamine deficiency. This isn’t something any of my doctors have discussed with me, and given my symptoms and nutritional history, it’s definitely worth raising with them. I’ll also ask about correcting deficiencies more comprehensively, including B vitamins alongside iron. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and taking the time to help. I’ll update the forum as I make progress.

      Blood tests for thiamine are unreliable.  The nutrients from your food get absorbed into the bloodstream and travel around the body.  So, a steak dinner can falsely raise thiamine blood levels in the following days.  Besides, thiamine is utilized inside cells where stores of thiamine are impossible to measure. A better test to ask for is the Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test.  But even that test has been questioned as to accuracy.  It is expensive and takes time to do.   Because of the discrepancies with thiamine tests and urgency with correcting thiamine deficiency, the World Health Organization recommends giving thiamine for several weeks and looking for health improvement.  Thiamine is water soluble, safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Many doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition and deficiency symptoms, and may not be familiar with how often they occur in Celiac disease.  B12 and Vitamin D can be stored for as long as a year in the liver, so not having deficiencies in these two vitamins is not a good indicator of the status of the other seven water soluble B vitamins.  It is possible to have deficiency symptoms BEFORE there's changes in the blood levels.   Ask your doctor about Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine that is better absorbed than Thiamine Mononitrate.  Thiamine Mononitrate is used in many vitamins because it is shelf-stable, a form of thiamine that won't break down sitting around on a store shelf.  This form is difficult for the body to turn into a usable form.  Only thirty percent is absorbed in the intestine, and less is actually used.   Thiamine interacts with all of the other B vitamins, so they should all be supplemented together.  Magnesium is needed to make life sustaining enzymes with thiamine, so a magnesium supplement should be added if magnesium levels are low.   Thiamine is water soluble, safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  There's no harm in trying.

      Yes, I do think they need a Thiamine supplement at least. Especially since they eat red meat only occasionally. Most fruits and vegetables are not good sources of Thiamine.  Legumes (beans) do contain thiamine.  Fruits and veggies do have some of the other B vitamins, but thiamine B 1 and  Cobalamine B12 are mostly found in meats.  Meat, especially organ meats like liver, are the best sources of Thiamine, B12, and the six other B vitamins and important minerals like iron.   Thiamine has antibacterial and antiviral properties.  Thiamine is important to our immune systems.  We need more thiamine when we're physically ill or injured, when we're under stress emotionally, and when we exercise, especially outside in hot weather.  We need thiamine and other B vitamins like Niacin B 3 to keep our gastrointestinal tract healthy.  We can't store thiamine for very long.  We can get low in thiamine within three days.  Symptoms can appear suddenly when a high carbohydrate diet is consumed.  (Rice and beans are high in carbohydrates.)  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so symptoms can wax and wane depending on what one eats.  The earliest symptoms like fatigue and anxiety are easily contributed to other things or life events and dismissed.   Correcting nutritional deficiencies needs to be done quickly, especially in children, so their growth isn't stunted.  Nutritional deficiencies can affect intelligence.  Vitamin D deficiency can cause short stature and poor bone formation.   Is your son taking anything for the anemia?  Is the anemia caused by B12 or iron deficiency?
