Next trip to New York

Hello: my name is Abel and I am celiac. 

I'm writing to you from Spain, because in October I'm going on my honeymoon trip to New York, And I'm trying to gather information on where to eat. 

I've searched google maps and travel forums, but some reviews aren't up to date, or I don't trust them, because "gluten-free" doesn't mean it's suitable for celiacs

I would like if you could help me, make a list of restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, etc. where it is safe to eat without fear of cross-contamination. 

Thank you in advance.

I would also recommend to pay attention to local small restaurants. When I am visiting NY I like to go to china town and eat in small home restaurants where people cook simple but very tasty food, also it's much cheaper than to eat in a hyped place.

Find me gluten free is an excellent resource.

Modern Bread and Bagel—completely safe for celiacs.  Two locations, one on Upper West Side and the other on 14th Street in Chelsea.  Lilli and Lou’s for celiac-safe Chinese cuisine.  I am highly sensitive and eat at these places regularly.  

Many restaurants in NYC that have gluten-free options are still risky because of cross-contamination.

Congrats on your upcoming honeymoon trip to New York! I totally get your concerns about finding safe places to eat as a celiac. It can be tricky, but there are definitely some reliable spots in the city. For restaurants, check out Senza Gluten, Risotteria Melotti, and Friedman's. For bakeries, definitely swing by Tu-Lu's Gluten-Free Bakery and Jennifer's Way Bakery. And for grocery shopping, Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe's have good gluten-free sections with clear labeling.

      Hi Trent! Thanks so much for your warm welcome and questions! They do, but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy. However, it's hard for me to know what's a celiac response vs. a Hashimotos one. I haven't, maybe it's worth getting those checked again?

      Welcome to the forum, @Maura Gissen! Don't those same symptoms often come along with the territory when pregnant? And then throw in Hashimoto's.  Have you had your celiac antibody levels checked recently?
    • Maura Gissen
      Hi! I have been diagnosed with celiacs and hashimotos for about 1.5 years. I have been on a gluten-free diet since then, and was on a strictly AIP diet for about 6 months a while back. I'm now pregnant, making food eliminations really hard. However, even with cutting out gluten and cross-reactive foods like corn, dairy, oats and yeast, I'm still having flare ups and I cannot pinpoint the foods (some weeks I am fine, others not so much). My symptoms are less digestive and more dizziness, brain fog, and a general feeling of being "sick." Can anyone relate? Does anyone have guidance? I feel really stuck and frustrated.

      The form of the magnesium is important. Go for one that has high absorbability. Most of us opt for magnesium glycinate. Mag citrate is also good. Don't settle for the oxide forms. They aren't absorbed well and tend to have a laxative effect 'cause they just draw water into the colon a' la Milk of Magnesia. Costco is a good place to shop for things like that. Also, good bone and dental health involves vitamin D. Are you taking a dedicated D3 supplement? Have you had your D levels checked? In many ways, vitamin D is turning out to be a master vitamin of human metabolism and celiacs are often low on this one. What was the numerical score on your IGA along with the reference range? I can probably tell you whether it was TTG-IGA by the magnitude of the score. The only other likely option besides TTG-IGA would be Total IGA which usually has scores that range in the hundreds.  I do think it important for you to get a follow-up endoscopy/biopsy to check for healing of the villi. If that isn't happening like it should, you still are not absorbing nutrients well and that could easily explain your dental issues.

      It doesn’t specify if it’s TTG I’m not sure how to tell for that. That would be so sad. We never eat out I try to be so strict. Yes many dental products have gluten! I only use ones that don’t on myself.    No follow up procedure has been done for healing. That is something I will ask about. Thank you for the suggestion.    I don’t take any Magnesium. What would be a good supplement?
