I'm from Canada and I'll be traveling to near Des Moines, Iowa next month for a family reunion. We will be staying at a resort (Honey Creek) and I'm not sure of how good the food will be. What is a good place to stock up on snacks and easy gluten-free food in Des Moines before heading there?

Also, what would be the best place to get Larabars? I want to try some of the flavors we don't have in Canada.

HyVee grocery stores for gluten-free snacks and Lara bars  . Louie’s wine dive in Kansas City does great with gluten-free - it’s a chain from Des Moines .  Whole Foods are good too.  Let me check for more .... I think there might be a gluten-free bakery.

Just came from the area after driving through from Indiana. The bakery is Sweet Rewards Gluten Free Bakery. It was good! Not far off of I80 in a suburb called Waukee. We didn't need to stop anywhere else at that point but Find Me app had some options.

I live in a town with hy-vee grocery stores. If you go to their website Open Original Shared Link and click on the gluten free foods link you will find every hy-vee product that is gluten free. I have had many and have never had a problem.  This list is for Hy-Vee products so it will not include other companies. I seem to survive off a lot of PB and J sandwiches when traveling.

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      Test results came back for everything that was tested now. Cholesterol is off the charts high. Not sure if that’s related to celiac, I have no idea how it could be so high. Also tested positive for H pylori  infection… is there a link to celiac and H pylori? Or am I just experiencing symptoms of the H pylori infection?

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      I’m reading that some sites list a high Immunoglobulin A result for my age above 300, another site says above 356, and other sites are saying above 400. I don’t know what to make of this result 🤷‍♂️

      Need Advice on Doctors

      You got some bum steers my friend. I have little confidence that you can trust your test results as differentiating between NCGS and celiac disease. And I think you would be much more likely to have gotten that note you need if you had been diagnosed with celiac disease. But believe me, I understand the predicament you are in with regard to the risks of repeating the gluten challenge. We have heard this story many times on this forum. People experiment with the gluten free diet before getting an official diagnosis and then cannot tolerate the gluten challenge later on when they seek an official diagnosis.

      For the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, they said 7 days of gluten. So I did 8...fast food and Krispy Kreme doughnuts. For the earlier blood test, the younger doctor said I didn't have to. My immune system went down, I was in the bathroom a lot, and as my wife said my brain wasn't braining.
