We are from Canada and heading to Disneyland early July. I have found great information about where to eat, which restaurants and such. I now need help with what products to buy at the store. We plan to shop at walmart, whole foods, henrys, whatever other mainstream store we come across. I would like to eat breakfast and lunch in our hotel, we will only have a mini fridge. What are some "regular" brands I should look for? (not certified gluten-free or at a special store) If I walked into a store what can I get that is gluten-free...specifically luncheon meats, yogurt, cheese. This may sound dumb but I don't know if you have the same produts we do. I hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help!!

Is yoplait in the US gluten free??

As far as I know, yoplait is gluten free. But check the label, of course.

In the U.S., I think it's very easy, and I've heard from many that Disney is VERY accommodating. Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are a great gluten free food sources here. I eat very natural foods, typically, so I don't know how much help I can be beyond that. Most major brands are labeled with allergens, but you still have to watch for barley and rye, which are often NOT included in allergens. Other than that, I think you will find it very easy. And have fun!!

Since you'll be in California, you'll probably come across Safeway stores. Their Primo Taglia luncheon meats and cheeses (sold behind the deli counter) are gluten free. Also, the Safeway brand organic yogurts are gluten free. Lay's chips, Kettle chips, and others are also now gluten free as are specially marked boxes of Chex cereals and Cocoa Pebbles or Fruity Pebbles. A great gluten-free cracker that Safeway sells is by Crunchmaster and can be found with the regular crackers. Here's a very complete list of gluten-free "regular" foods than can be purchased at any supermarket here in the U.S.:

I know that you said you live in Canada, and that their are dozens of Costco's there. Do you have a membership? Please advise (it will work here) and I'll give you a complete list of what to buy. There's not one in Anaheim (where Disneyland is located) but Fullerton & Garden Grove have one.

Secondly, hit Trader Joe's in the nearby cities close to Anaheim.

Are you driving from the airport? Let me know and I'll give you plenty of guidance.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
