Hey all,

I am travelling from Australia to the states in Feb. I have managed to find a bunch of places in NYC and LA. A couple in vegas, however i was wondering if someone could assist in providing some ideas for places in Orange County. I read somewhere about a place called sparks in Huntington beach.

Ive done the whole thing about requesting gluten free on airline (flying united) however reading the posts on here im not exactly convinced that it will go smooth sailing.

Thanks in advance.

I used to live in HB. Sparks is on Main Street, downtown, right off of Pacific Coast Highway. I haven't eaten there, but have heard they can do gluten free for you, and I know they were always packed. There's a PF Changs (chinese, and they have a gluten-free menu) in Long Beach that's about a 20 minute drive from downtown HB, as well as an Outback (ha! don't know if you'd care for their Australian theme) with has a gluten-free menu. There's a place called Au Lac (Open Original Shared Link), that has vegetarian and vegan and raw foods - which might sound a bit out there, but can be a fun trip since many raw items are naturally gluten-free.

try pm-ing "picture perfect". She's from that area. Do you have a set of the Triumph dining cards? They are well worth the money and have saved me from getting glutened on one occasion.

What gluten free restaurants have you found in the LA areas? I'm going to be going there for two weeks next month and would love to know.

Thanks,

Carol

      Is it gluten?

      Hello @A Wilson, Glad you found us.   There is your answer.  The results from the tests are just more data to the puzzle.

      Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis.  Rebound tenderness, fever.   Is it gluten?  Yes.  It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough.  Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin D, B1, Choline, Iodine, B2, B3, B5, B12.  The vitamin D test, (25(OH)D, is simple and accurate. Whole Milk yogurt and berries to populate your gut with benificial bacteria.  I drink Red Bull for energy.  Eat food low in omega 6 fatty acids. The ideal ratio is less than 3 omega 6 to 1 omega 3.  For some, the Modern American Diet is estimated to be more than 14:1.  Very inflammatory.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1. Whether Celiac Disease (1% of the population) or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population) would take blood tests and endoscopy. It is either that, or you have managed to contract 6 or 7 different diseases at the same time. You don't need a doctor's permission to not eat gluten anymore than you would to eat Chinese food.

      Being gluten free for two weeks prior to testing can make a difference in the test results if the score is borderline.

      Is it gluten?

      By A Wilson · Posted

      Hello, New to Celiac.com, glad I found this site. I have had a lot of GI issues most of my life. Recently my GI issues got so bad I tried a gluten free diet and made a appointment with my GI doctor. I  got the Celiac disease blood test but I  had been gluten free for two weeks before the test. My doctor told me being gluten free for two weeks would not make a difference in the test results. I am not sure I believe that.  I have been reading a lot of articles about Celiac disease and they all give the same information. My GI issues are all gone since my gluten free life started around October 16th 2024, and I  don't want to go back to eating gluten. I am nervous about going back to the doctor for my test results.

      I was also told I had IBS years ago like literally it's just IBS the docter said I've had lots of  the symptoms you say there plus much more but I'm convinced it's not just IBS although I feel very sorry for people who get told this too because IBS is a real problem for people too it's awfull how much ignorance is around in the world these days from docters try the elimination diet like I did gluten free I also did lactose because it was still bothering me I found a real big change I've read some members here say  it can be quite hard to get a diagnosis and help but there is plenty of self help here it's not wrong to self diagnose if you find that it truly is a Life changer be true to your own needs and ask people already suffering for advise it's about your quality of life now and for future this us were I'm heading if I have no luck with docters I will have luck helping myself 🤗
