gluten-free in Eureka, CA


ncsc

On my recent trip to Eureka (northern CA), I found it difficult to impossible to eat out safely.  Luckily, I packed gluten-free freezed dried food created by a company called paleo to go.  I ate that and food that I purchased from a local natural grocery store.  I did not feel safe eating at the few restaurants that offered gluten-free options, so I just did not eat out.  Northern CA is a great place for hiking and enjoying the outdoors.  The redwood trees are amazing.  But if you visit and need to eat gluten-free, be prepared.

I've been to Eureka quite a few times, and you are right, it's a challenge to feel safe eating out. I do bring GliadinX whenever I eat out now, which had helped a lot, but when it comes to safety there is no substitute for brining your own food. I love Mexican food and can usually find something safe in a family run place. In Eureka I go to Oaxaca Grill Restaurant.

It has been near impossible to find anything Celiac friendly in town with the exception of a food truck called Pig and Leaf. The food tuck is parked at a dispensary/spa of all places and has a good atmosphere. The cook assured us that he prepares everything in a separate station. My girlfriend has Celiac and she did not get glutened, so props to the food truck. We stayed in Eureka for a week and rented an AirBNB with a nice kitchen to cook all of our meals. There is a Eureka Natural Foods store, which is just like a Whole Foods, so you can get what you need there. This place is an absolute dream for the outdoor junky, but a nightmare for someone with Celiac.

      I had the endoscopy with biopsy done. I have gastritis and duodenitis at this point. The biopsy should provide the cause of the inflammation findings. How common are these findings when Celiac is the ultimate culprit?

      Welcome to the forum @cookiesyum, I lasted on staton for about a month before getting so weak I had to stop.   Switched to Nicotinic Acid and I posted the results in a previous post.  Instead of getting sicker and weaker on the statin I feel I am improving day by day.  Nicotinic Acid was first used for cholesterol in 1955.

      According to research, consuming gluten can potentially trigger sudden mood swings and increased irritability in children, particularly those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, making them more likely to have tantrums or display behavioral issues; this is because gluten can trigger an immune response in the body, potentially impacting brain function and neurotransmitter levels.  When my son was diagnosed in 1976 when he was weaned his doctor told us that at 5 years old his kindergarden teacher would beg us to put him on Ritalin.  And so it did happen.  My son was on Ritalin though high school.  In the morning he was a devil who could not put on his socks. Half an hour after...

      Yes, it certainly can! My daughter has a reaction from just playing with Playdough. She doesn't get GI symptoms at first, just psychological mostly. It can get really bad. It's like night/day behavior. My daughter is eight, but started showing signs around 6.

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the...
