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?

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.

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

      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!

      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
