Lyfe Kitcken Stay Away

I have celiac disease and had a horrific experience there. I hardly ever eat out. I ordered a plain gluten-free grass fed burger. The person taking my order saw that I had a gluten-free menu. I told her that my order needs to be gluten-free, bc I have celiac disease, and if I eat food that is not gluten-free, I will throw up all over the place and not necessarily in the bathroom. She assured me that there is no cross contamination in the kitcken. She said separate cutting boards, utensils, grill space, etc. I ordered and sat down. A few minutes later the burger was brought to me. It looked like a bun that was not gluten-free. I asked and the server apologized, saying that it is not s gluten-free bun. If I did not ask or know the look of a gluten-free bun, I would have eaten it and become very sick. She apologized, took the food away, and shortly after, brought out a burger with a gluten-free bun. It was quick so I suspected that they just switched the bun. I did not eat it and received a refund.

It is not LYFE kitcken - it should be called DEATH kitcken for people with celiac disease!!!!!!!!!!!

When sending food back for any reason I cut it apart so they can no "reserve" it to me.  I have found cheese scraped off of burgers for my child with life threatening allergies.  Doesn't happen now that I do this.

 

Sorry you got sick :(

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
