I had to share this with everyone because it was a wonderful find. The other day, my mother (who does not have Celiac) was looking through the Washington Post's Food section which had an article on gluten free baking. While rooting around the paper, she found that a local restaurant, Chima Steakhouse in Tysons Corner, is hosting a gluten free dinner! The local Celiac organization here in Northern Virginia called tonight to confirm our reservation and see how many family members had Celiac Disease. I was totally blown away! The dinner is coming up, the beginning of next week I think, but if you live in the area and would like to go, feel free to email me at wheeleks@jmu.edu and I can send you the information to get signed up. The Chima Steakhouse line number did not offer any help in making the reservation, it is specifically through the local Celiac group. I am beyond excited for a great gluten free dinner and knew that only people in this group would fully appreciate the magnitude of this event!!! Happy eating to all!!!

My family and I attended this dinner last night. It was a great event and the price was superb (1/3 the regular price). Kudos to the group for organizing it.

      Anyone Else Experiencing These Symptoms?

      By Mantooth · Posted

      Thanks for the responce Scott! When I was tested I figured out that I was on a diet and wasnt eating lots of gluten, Im using the LoseIt App to track my food intake so I went back and checked. My doctor only tested me for TTG-AB-IGA and nothing else. My results were <0.5 out of <12u/mL. Im now believing that I wasnt eating enough gluten to have a response, no gluten challenge or anything. Does anyone know what tests I should ask my doctor to do? I want to be armed with information before I go in there again.

      Gluten Free Soy Flour - Where to buy?

      Take a look at this: https://www.amazon.ca/Soy-Flour-32-oz-OliveNation/dp/B075SY4GZD/ref=sr_1_6?crid=13CCYAI1E8VN1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.8terxdZwLmrcfl823uHd3bN5U4diF6FPBZ5Y_f-eJiwMETCaUIXq_8rZgFVXn7-ITmgEIruEu3rNPQyyTUUrudSyYKxr8hDjKrPCJzLbichM92NvYrJ0DwqJf8haq9cQ3TSRRAdM4l-AT2pHmy5BDeYKTpLG8lkyYEz0BmCyI3j6bnCSbwbWlABFWHPSwdAzYb5Es1_4X22SzgsOwp7wV7JfzBpxZjRofP-ox1ZordzC-n8bDCTfAgdm82RgIf7bm3kB42SbT1uaobKXDuMzV0JvazmeQJqKGk9fYx0ZUJHVx1mhvPy5Y4DrGKQZeFc_lIkjFMfQLxcdeetrwD1pR7Rf118-sKpdUE0-o5XOTAtXeIZzKw09NVXXDAJ6BltxNhqoDONQrr-eK7_U8cs1tGfqvmEdB46LW60PYio8H7Rb6Q_vYfN_9_7PVBcFBbRY.puKTSG7PZA4A7LaV1Ko8bCcXm8ioyAkaLpc3qDafv24&dib_tag=se&keywords=gluten+free+soy+flour&qid=1734400695&sprefix=gluten+free+soy+flour%2Caps%2C173&sr=8-6 The description says it is processed in a facility that also processes nuts and soy. But it does not mention processing wheat.

      Gluten Free Soy Flour - Where to buy?

      By Jules87 · Posted

      Hello!  I like to use soy flour for baking and recently discovered that Bob's Red Mill has discontinued its soy flour product. I've been able to find it at a few local international grocery stores but I have some concerns about cross contamination. Wondering if anyone knows a company / brand that specifically calls out their soy flour is gluten free? Or at least cleans the line before producing it? Thank you for any suggestions in advance!

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Did you get a blood screening done for celiac disease? If so, feel free to share your results here. Normally this is done before a biopsy, and after a positive blood test. For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Matt13, About half of people with Celiac Disease react to Casein, the protein in dairy, in the same way as to the protein Gluten.  They have similar segments of polypeptides which trigger the autoimmune response of Celiac Disease. Damage to the Villa lining the intestines can be patchy or beyond the reach of the endoscopy equipment.   Hope this helps!
