Maybe some of you already know this, but there is a "find me gluten free" APP for FREE!!!! I was recently on a road trip from Minnesota to the Carolina's. When we got to South Carolina, I thought to myself how much easier it would be to just know what places there were, and not have to keep calling each restaurant. So I searched in my Android Market and found it for FREE!!! Made my whole year!! It will search over 30 miles from your location, and let you know whether it has a gluten-free menu or if they are just willing to work with you. I was able to eat at all new places (I tend to default to the Outbacks and Red Robins I always eat at here in MN) the whole trip without getting cross contaminated or looked at like I had two heads when I asked about gluten-free dining. Hope this helps someone!! If you do get this app, be sure to "suggest" places so we can get it built up and have more and more options!! Yay!

Thank you so much! I just downloaded the app. I'm fairly new with having a smart phone (DroidX), so still learning how to use it and all the wonderful things it can do for me. This will be VERY useful.

You're welcome! I am still excited about it!! It's pretty easy and quick to use. Love/hate how popular gluten-free is becoming...love that people are aware....hate that some people think it's a "fad diet" and that they don't have to be careful. So, now we can find the places who know how important it is to us!

I downloaded that the other day. It was really good to see it and a couple others on there as well. My phone is more useful than most of the rest of my body so anything that will enhance my life with it is something I'll cheerfully support.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
