Anyone have any good recommendations for a good take out place for gluten-free pizza in the Schaumburg/Arlington Heights/Buffalo Grove area? There's a million pizza places around, so there has to be one.

I have yet to find a place in the area that does a gluten-free crust. However... Lou Malnati's does a gluten-free pizza that uses their deep dish sausage patty as the "crust" layer and then piles everything else on top of that - and they use dedicated pans to cook it. Prices start out the same as a sausage deep dish (I get no crust but hey - I have a safe pizza option so I will not complain) plus your toppings.

DaLuciano's in River Grove sells their pizza frozen. Not quite take out, but close - and it's really good. You could probably get it to go if you called.

Aurelio's (various locations) has gluten free pizza and does take-out and delivery, but I've heard it's not great. I haven't tried it myself.

do you have a Boston Pizza in your area. We just found out this week that our local Boston Pizza has a gluten free one with a variety of toppings available. We took our two grandaughters there yesterday and they both enjoyed their pizza. Only single serving size was available, but we were happy to be able to take them out!

Godfather's offers a gluten-free crust. It's decent. Do you have a Biaggi's nearby? They make an awesome gluten-free pizza.

I was told by Lou Malnati's today that they do not have dedicated pans or work areas for their gluten free pizza. So please be careful! They also said they are working on perfecting a gluten free crust, which is pretty exciting.

I believe California Pizza Kitchen at Woodfield has a gluten-free menu, but again, no dedicated pans or work areas. There's a Biaggi's in Deer Park that has gluten-free pizza, but I was underwhelmed by the crust. They use Tinkyada pasta, but I've found it doesn't make the ride home if I'm doing take-out, and honestly, if I'm going to have Tinkyada I might as well make something myself.

Boston Pizza assured us that they have a dedicated work area, pans and knifes for their gluten free pizza's. I hope this idea catches on everywhere. It seems more and more people need to be gluten free.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment. The cow's body builds that Casein protein. It doesn't come from wheat. Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people. This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response). It is not lactose intolerance...

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow. What is it from the wheat that you are saying becomes incorporated into the...

      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.

      My only proof

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go! I'm certain you'll feel much better. Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free. The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities...

      My only proof

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get cal...

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go!  I'm certain you'll feel much better.   Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free.  The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities and food preferences can limit choices.  I can't consume fish and shellfish due to the sulfa hypersensitivity and iodine content, and dairy is out as well.  I react to casein, the protein in dairy, as well as the iodine in dairy.  My Dermatitis Herpetiformis is aggravated by iodine.   Blood tests for B vitamin levels are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change to show a deficiency.  I had subclinical vitamin deficiencies for years which affected my health, leading to a slow downward spiral.  Because the B vitamins are water soluble, they are easily excreted in urine if not needed.  It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   Wheat and other gluten containing grain products have vitamins and minerals added to them to replace those nutrients lost in processing.  Manufacturers add cheap vitamins that our bodies don't absorb or utilize well.  Even normal people can suffer from vitamin deficiencies.  The rise in obesity can be caused by High Calorie Malnutrition, where people eat more carbohydrate calories but don't get sufficient thiamine and B vitamins to turn the calories into energy.  The calories are stored as fat in an effort to ration out diminishing thiamine  stores.    It's time to buy your own vitamins in forms like Benfotiamine that our bodies can use well.   Not sleeping well and fatigue are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.   I'm certain Benfotiamine with a B Complex will help you immensely.  Just don't take them at night since B vitamins provide lots of energy, you can become too energetic to sleep.  Better to take them earlier in your day.   Do keep me posted on your progress!

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!
