I think this is the primo health food store on Long Island. I don't know if you have a WholeFoods, Henry's, Jimbos, Trader Joes..... Google them. My friend goes to Wild by Nature and says they have loads of gluten free foods.

:) Welcome to Long Island. I shop at Trader Joe's in Merrick, there is also one in Oceanside. You can also go to Fairway in Plainview, they have a larger selection there. There is also Wholefoods in Manhasset.

Cafe Baldo is a Gluten free restaurant and they make gluten free pizza. They are in Wantagh

Hope this helps.

I actually live in Westchester, but DH is from LI and a lot of my friends live there so I am there pretty often. The absolute best restaurant with a gluten-free menu ever is Mama's in Oakdale. I drive like 1 1/2 to go there, that's how good it is!!! They have chicken parm, mozzarella sticks, baked clams... every normal Italian dish you could want and it taste AMAZING!!

Also, Earth Remedies in Wantagh has TONS of gluten-free products, including the most incredible rainbow cookies you will ever have. They have a lot of stuff that you can't normally find in like Whole Foods too, like Glutino bagels, Ener-G sesame pretzels, Namaste cake mix, etc.

I went to the PF Chang's in Westbury a couple months ago and wasn't that comfortable there. They seemed to be a bit clueless. THe one by me in White Plains is much better.

Yes, everyone pretty much got them all...

but also in Plainview (down the block from Fairway, wich is the best!).. B-Well Naturally... I LOVE this store! they have SO many gluten-free items.. it's a whole foods store, and they even sell gluten-free baked ziti, Lasagna (both w/meat and w/out)... that they make there! their chicken salad is WONDERFUl also!!

They also carry the HARD TO FIND new George's gluten-free Pizza! It's expensive for such a little pizza, but it's SOOOOOOO good!

I basically shop btw Fairway and B-Well I hit one, then the other... they're both on Manetto HIll Road.

There is also a Trader Joe's right by there on S.Oyster Bay Road, and a New Whole Foods, on Rt. 107 in Jerricho, but I have found that not much gluten-free stuff is there, and it's very pricy!

If you live in Suffolk, Wild by Nature (like someone said above) is Awesome as well!

Earth Remedies in Wantagh is really good too! Definately as jkmunchkin said, the cookies are AWESOME! also about PF Changs, they wree totally clueless in the Westbury one... BUT , Outback in Westbury is AWESOME! (also in Merrick)

      Conflicting results

      By Jy11 · Posted

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac?

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By Pasballard · Posted

      I have Celiacs and want you to be aware of the amount of weight you can potentially put on if you rely on gluten free snacks, bread etc.,they  are high in carbs.  I put on 25 lbs in a short amount of time.  Whole Foods are the best way to go but I struggle with this.  The cost of gluten free is also a problem.  I love black licorice but most have gluten.  My favorite chili seasoning as well.  The list is endless.  I take  Advil liquid gels and had no idea until I read this.  I hope you do better than I have done.  I feel I am destined to suffer daily no matter what.  My aunt didn’t take care of herself and died from complications.  I hope you can get on a good routine.

      Thank you, I appreciate the response. I'm going to begin the gluten free diet and wait for the biopsy results. I feel fairly certain that it's the right thing for my well being. I will keep you posted.

      Vaccines

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The flu vaccine is indeed not 100% effective every year, as its effectiveness varies depending on how well the vaccine strains match the circulating flu viruses. However, even in years when the match is less than perfect, the flu vaccine still provides significant benefits. Studies consistently show that vaccinated individuals who contract the flu often experience milder symptoms, a lower risk of complications, and a reduced likelihood of hospitalization or death compared to those who are unvaccinated. For high-risk groups, such as the elderly, young children, and individuals with chronic health conditions, the flu vaccine remains a critical tool for reducing severe outcomes. Regarding the mention of risks associated with vaccines, it’s important to note that the flu vaccine is generally very safe for most people. Serious side effects are extremely rare, and the benefits of vaccination far outweigh the risks for the vast majority of individuals. If someone has specific concerns about vaccine safety due to medical conditions or allergies, they should consult their healthcare provider to discuss their options. As for alternative measures like a D Lamp (ultraviolet light disinfection), while these can be useful for reducing pathogens in the environment, they are not a substitute for vaccination. The flu virus spreads primarily through respiratory droplets, and personal protection measures like hand hygiene, masking, and improving indoor ventilation can complement vaccination but cannot replace its targeted immune protection.

      Because you have already had the "gold standard" test done, and because you have some experiential evidence that removing gluten from your diet causes you to feel better, it would make sense to begin the gluten-free diet as you wait for biopsy results.
