I am trying to find a good sushi restaurant that I can eat at safely. I have read that the sushi axiom is gluten free friendly...but as usual I got a "What the heck is gluten?" response when I asked the waiter.haha! So has anyone ever eaten there...or know of a place that has gluten free sushi in fort worth, texas?? Thanks!

The trick with sushi is to stick to plain raw fish and sushi rice and bring your own soy sauce. Then you're eating naturally gluten-free food. The best thing to order is nigiri or sashimi and rice. Edamame, pickled veggies and ginger, and things like cream cheese or cucumber are OK too.

I've also never had a problem with nori (seaweed) on things like tuna rolls but I just learned here that korean nori can be processed with soy sauce.

Avoid cooked sushi like unagi that can be flavored with soy sauce, tempura put in rolls, fake crab meat, roe as it can be marinated with soy sauce, ponzo sauce, and wasabi (unless you know it's pure).

You will get a funny look if you mention gluten, but I will say "I am allergic to fake crab meat and soy sauce, please serve my food plain" to be sure they don't try to "decorate" anything with a squirt of ponzo sauce or shreds of fake crab.

Thankyou so much! Yeah before I was diagnosed I would eat avocado rolls....which consists of fresh avocado with rice and soy paper instead of seaweed because I hate seaweed! And i actually craved it alot because it was one of the few things that didn't make me sick. Should I be concerned with soy paper?

Skylark Collaborator

I don't know. I have never run across soy paper! Maybe someone else can tell you.

You might ask if there's an English ingredient label they can show you the first time you eat it. If it doesn't make you sick and you're sensitive, that's always a good sign. :)

Often if you say you have a "wheat allergy" and need to see a label or check something, people understand better and are more helpful.

Ok thanks! Yeah I am very sensitive to alot of foods so I should know!

The only soy paper that I have seen was gluten-free, but it was in a store and I could read the label.

Thankyou...did you see it in like a regular grocery store? I kind of want to buy some so I can try making my own! Im just gonna try the restaurant and hope it doesn't make me sick...cuz I will be on a date.lol

Yo, I looked it up and it was Sushi Party's Soy Wrappers at our very cool local natural foods store. I would give the restaurant a call - it's good practice for the rest of life, you bypass a potentially busy server and also, you'd have soo much more fun on your date. ;)

Now I want some of them.

Eel (in sushi) is often covered with a sauce that contains wheat, so avoid the eel. (Maybe you would have, anyway. :P ) Also, some of the vegetarian sushi options may have bread crumbs.

sannep77 Newbie

uummm yes I would stay away from eel! yuck. I actually only like the vegetarian sushi. preferably avocado roll..yum:)

I live just outside of Dallas, so if you hear of a good sushi restaurant other than Osaka please let me know, they may have another branch closer to me. Thanks

Hello! I have the same problem all the time. I work in sushi resturant and will tell you as long as you're smart about it, you'll be ok. No "crunch". No random sauce. It's all soy sauce based. Just say no soy sauce. I work at a place called Samurai Bistro ask for me and I'll hook you up :D

      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!

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

      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:...

      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...

      Welcome to the forum, @Idnam! Ranitidine and Famotidine are not proton pump inhibitors. They are H2 blockers. It is true that histamine intolerance is common in the celiac population. We often don't produce enough of a histamine regulator called DAO (diamine oxidase). Not sure, but this may be due to damage to the gut lining by celiac inflammation. You might also want to research MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) as it is often goes hand in glove with histamine intolerance and is actually the root cause. Or, at least that is my understanding. By the way, you can purchase DAO capsules but there is not clear evidence they work.
