Hi all,

from April 8th to 10th my travel team and I are on a tournament in Warwick, RI. 2 people of my team are a celiac. Another woman, which I helped to get diagnosed, and myself. Which is pretty amazing anyway, two celiacs in one team :lol: . We should ask, if we could start in the handicapped class. No, just kidding :D . Oh, well...

But we were wondering, if there is a (or maybe more) gluten-free possibility to eat. Doesn't have to be a completely gluten-free restaurant, but little things on a menu help, too. I already figured out several Outback Steakhouses, but they aren't even cheap. So I thought, you guys might now something else, besides McDonalds fries. Oh, by the way, does anybody know, if the ketchup in McDonalds is gluten-free? Cause fries without ketchup isn't my favorite.

And do you guys know about any supermarkets or wholefoods, where we could buy some gluten-free crackers or something in case we have an eating emergency? I mean, we take gluten-free food with us, but you never know...

I'm excited, about how we manage that. This is practically a "rehearsal" for Toronto for me. We try to get a cheap hotel with a self-cooker kitchen and bring our own toaster and stuff. I think we will have a blast :lol: .

Thanks for your help in advance. Hugs, Stef

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
