Ok, I need to tell other celiac's about this. I went out to eat tonight with some friends. I had looked at the menu before at was pretty sure I could figure something out to eat. I had called as well, and the person I spoke with seemed to understand what gluten free meant.

Ok, so we got to the resaturant, its called the Sunflower, its in Boulder, CO. I had eaten their, prior to my gluten-free diet. Its pretty good. Its a place that servers only organic foods and such. Its a restaurant though, so its all dish's made with organic things.

The menu was very non gluten-free friendly, but they made me some salmon that was really good. Not feeling sick yet either...

Now comes dessert. I was like, well I probably can have ice cream. The waiter brought out the "display" platter of all the cakes and pies. The last dessert caught my attention. I thought.. "wait! DID he say what I thought he did?""" I asked to repeat, and he said "and this is our flour free gluten free chocolate pie" I was like hello! I will have that. It was great! I was shocked and further amazed then when I looked at the dessert menu, and it actaully had a symbol for vegetarian,ok I expected that, but it also have a symbol for all desserts that were wheat free! Woohoo. I remeber seeing that when I was around in England and some places in Europe, but having one place here, even it if it was just a dessert menu was cool.

Oh, here their website.

All in all my meal was good, and dessert was great... I was a bit nervous at eating my salmon dinner their as it was very "mixed" together with a glaze and some potatoes, but the waiter had assured me their chef well understood a gluten-free diet and would make it especiially for me. Still feeling ok. :>

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Normal vitamin D range us from 20 ng/ml to 100 ng/ml.  200 nmol/L is the same as 80ng/ml. Minimum vitamin D is based soley on preventing Rickets and osteomyelitis.  Othe research is considered irrelevant insufficnet proof.   My 25(OH)D level is just over 80 ng/dl.  It took 8 years of 10,000 IU a day to get here because Celiac Disease causes low D.  In 1952 the UK banned all vitamin D supplementation due to a error.  Most of the world followed suit.  In the western world vitamin D deficiency ranges from 40% of the US to 60% in the UK. If you had an office with workspace for 30 to 100 workers, but you were restricted to less than 50 workers, how well would the office run.? A factory worker has 40 ng/ml,  A lifeguard has around 80.  Who's immune system works better? Simultaneously, 1,25(OH)2D3 up- and downregulates more than 1000 genes responsible for cellular proliferation, differentiation, a variety of cellular metabolic activities, antiangiogenesis and apoptosis   https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9919777/

      Welcome to the forum, @Mpanknin! Questions like that really have no definite answer. Even if you tested a container of it for gluten content, the test results would only be good for that production batch. Assume it has some degree of CC. A more important question might be, how sensitive are you to minor amounts of gluten exposure?

      I have Celiac, and I just found out that HCTZ has gluten in it, and also makes you severely constipated versus diarrrhea!!  I need another medicene for blood pressure that is certified gluten free, without the 20 ppm, and doesn't cause constipation, please!!

      Thanks Wheatwacked. My D is normal. I take B12, B6, and a bone health supplement (I'm 67) that has K1, Calcium, Magnesium, and a bunch of other things. But no thiamine. But I will have my doc add it to my next blood draw. Thanks for the info WW!

      Wondering if this is gluten free or not. The only ingredients show garlic. Nothing about where it's processed if there's cross-contamination etc. Anybody know?
