FireGirl,

I am a Las Vegas resident...

You have many options.

Rule #1 -- Buffets are not friendly to Celiacs --- too much cross-contamination - way too much.

Rule#2 - We have Outback Steakhouse on the strip

(702) 251-7770

3411 Las Vegas Blvd S

Las Vegas, NV 89109

Rule #3 - Don't be afraid to bring your own toaster and/or buy a cheap $10 toaster while you are here -- it makes it much easier.

Rule#4 We also have Pf Changs (gluten free menu) -- it is between Aladdin and Bally's.

702) 836-0955

(702) 836-1963

3667 Las Vegas Blvd S

Las Vegas, NV 89109

Rule#5 We have Maggiano's (Italian place that served gluten free pasta) -- it is located near the fashion show mall on the Strip

702) 650-3003

(702) 732-2550

3200 Las Vegas Blvd S

Las Vegas, NV 89109

Rule #6 -- We have McD's, Wendy's, In N Out Burger, Arby's, etc

Rule#7 -- We have Wild Oats, Whole Foods (although they are not on the Strip)

Rule #9 -- If you need any other kind of help and other individual recommendations, feel free to e-mail me.....broncobux2000@yahoo.com

Hope this helps!

Broncobux,

I will be heading to LV in a few months so the list is greatly appreciated....Thanks!

Firegirl,

One thing I do when I travel is to request from the hotel a mini-fridge for my room. That way I can then go to the local health food store and buy some gluten-free supplies to keep me going (Fruit, Crackers, Cheese, Lunch Meat, Chips, Cereal, Almond Milk, etc.)

Best of Luck!

There is also a Cheesecake Factory in the forum shops of Caesar's Palace that will be willing to work with you. I was there about 3 weeks ago.

I'm a Silly Yak member and I read a recent message from someone with celiac disease that stayed at Bellagio. They contacted the hotel ahead of time and they we're really accomadating. When they made reservations at the Bellagio rest. thay had a card on their table that had the restrictions listed. I'm not sure how long ago they went but it sounds like they had a great expierence.

Next time I go to LV I'm staying at Bellagio!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful time and I wish I was there. :D

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax. Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day. Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep. The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. 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...

      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?

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

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.

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.
