Dinner Tonight

I was invited to a birthday dinner tonight and unfortunately the

restaurant does not have gluten-free menu.

I was looking at their menu and trying to pick out something simple.

Does this look ok to you? (of course, I'll double check to make sure

their dressing is gluten-free). Anything else I should ask our waiter?

HOUSE SMOKED SALMON SALAD

Fresh Norwegian Salmon smoked in our own Smoke house, atop mixed

baby greens, tomato wedges, asparagus, cucumbers and

red onions in abalsamic vinaigrette dressing

I find I must order the salmon with no grill baste and no seasoning. many seasonings have gluten in them, and grill baste always does it seems.

I would take your own dressing. Some balsamic 'flavored' vinegars have gluten. Some salad dressings have gluten. Just bring your own so you don't have to worry about it.

Be sure to tell them they can't get any crumbs in your salad -- they need to mix it in a clean bowl.

Ask them if their salad ingredients are kept away from the sandwich preparation area ... the restaurant my son used to work at had the salads and sandwiches prepared in the same area, so everything was contaminated.

Call the restaurant ahead of time and speak to the manager. He/She will most likely be able to guide you. If they're totally ignorant about gluten/food allergies perhaps it would be best to just eat before you go and then just enjoy everyone else's company while you're there.

      Thank you for this information and your post. I have tried just about every diet there is. I have been experimenting with diet for years and years. I am a vegan, so the diet you mentioned is not an option. Fasting always works for me. Probably because I am detoxing and not feeding candida or parasites. Meat eaters have a higher prevalence of parasites, just so you know. I have a feeling that every time I break out on probiotics it's due to some kind of war with my gut biome. I definitely need to find a system of flushing out my gut so that the probiotics don't have to fight as hard to populate.

      I'm unsure if sommersby cider is likely to have cross contamination issues, given its made by a beer company. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm assuming wine generally is ok, as it's bottled in a vineyard, but what about other (ostensiblygluten free) liquors?

      @BoiseNic Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  This Paleo diet cuts out most everything except meat, veggies and some fruits.  By cutting out all the carbohydrates, especially processed ones, the carbohydrate loving bacteria and fungi like Candida get starved out and die off.  After that, taking probiotics to help repopulate the gut is beneficial.  The new strains of bacteria don't have to fight the established unhealthy yeasts and bad bacteria which causes a rise in histamine levels which can make one feel sick.   Certain vitamins help keep bad bacteria and fungi at bay.  Thiamine is one.  Antibiotics can deplete Thiamine stores.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin and digestive tract.  Vitamin C, Vitamin D, zinc, and Niacin B 3 are important to skin health.  Niacin is especially helpful in Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I like the kind that flushes (Nicotinic Acid - not the same as nicotine in cigarettes).  The flushing gets less and less the longer it's taken, but Niacinamide which doesn't cause flushing can be taken instead.     Here's an interesting article.  Compare the bacteria mentioned in the article with your Skinesa and then with the Visbiome probiotics.   The Role of Probiotics in Skin Health and Related Gut–Skin Axis: A Review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10385652/ Visbiome https://www.visbiome.com/collections/all/products/visbiome-capsules

      The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria.  I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat.  Especially in early healing there may be other foods you cannot tolerate for a while.

      I guess I would encourage you to abstain from the wine for a while. If you know something causes you pain then it is a good idea not to do it if you don't have to.
