What started the whole Alexis Stewart thing is that she said she wanted recipes in the NY Times instead of another article about another place offering a gluten free menu. Well, I don't think there are ENOUGH places that offer gluten free menus! I try to keep up with the GOOD places I go out to eat, but I have slacked off! I say we start a positive letter/email campaign to thank those places that DO have gluten free menus!! I will post the addresses/emails for the places I can think of. Please join me in thanking these places that make an effort :)

Outback, Carabas, Bonefish Grill, Flemings, Roys, Cheeseburger in Paradise.....All OSI resturants fall under:

One thing.. we have alot of those resturaunts where I live.. but the particular franchise DOES NOT always offer gluten-free food or menus.... namely Outback, Carabas, Bonefish Grill and Cheeseburger in Paradise.

When I went to those locations and requested a gluten-free menu they didn't have one and couldn't guarantee it - but did tell me up front so I just left of course :) The only exception was Cheeseburger in Paradise (YAY) which told me they would alter anything as I needed it (it's a pretty laid back place anyhow!) and we didn't have a problem there either :)

We ate at a local Austin Grill (northern VA) and they have a dedicated grill for gluten-free and make their own flourLESS tortilla's and have a gluten-free menu available - unfortunately no nachos because all their cheese is made with some beer blend :(

Maggiano's (sp?) in northern VA will even cook your own pasta you bring (or for additional cost will go out and GET YOU gluten-free pasta) (Italian Resturaunt) and serve it with everyone elses. Of course that's probably because they are very near one of the largest Whole Foods stores in the country up in northern VA.... but still it's good.

But the Corporate office has made a point to have a gluten free option. That is a big step for chains! That is my point....

      Ground meat absolutely full of gluten?

      By glucel · Posted

      Flavorings usually identified but don't know if there are laws that govern that. I bot lamb shanks that had rosemary flavor but did not see anything else that might be a grain so I ate it. I eat tons ground beef usually organic and grass fed from aldi. Not identified as gluten-free but hopefully it is. On the other hand I would only eat hot dogs which has several ingredients if identified gluten-free.

      Absolutel liquor

      By Doug1229 · Posted

      All liquor that has been distilled are gluten-free because the liquor is captured from evaporation. Gluten is a heavy protein that will not evaporate make it safe for all celiac’s. cheers!

      Ground meats can contain flavorings and fillers. You must look for the gluten-free symbol on the packaging. I use Jennie-O brands which are marked gluten-free.

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I take Clonidine for blood pressure control.  It is the only one that did not debiltate me.  It also helps with my ADD.  Doctors always turned me down when I requested Ritalin (I am an adult) so it turned out for the best that I reacted badly to all the different BP meds they tried. Originally Clonidine was developed for ADHD adolescents that could not tolerate Ritalin.

      9 year old- questionable results

      You should also have her checked for vitamin deficiencies.   "Iodine's presence in the diet can contribute positively to hair strength and elasticity by maintaining hair follicle cycling and supporting the synthesis of hair shaft components like keratin. Keratin is strong and won't dissolve in diluted acids, alkalines, solvents, or water" "Keratosis pilaris is a benign skin condition characterized by small bumps around hair follicles. It is caused by excess keratin, a protein that forms hair, nails, and skin. Iodine is not directly related to keratosis pilaris, but certain foods can help improve it" It could be deficiency in iodine may be causing the keratosis Polaris.  Insufficient iodine intake affects healing, intellegence skin and nails. The average intake of iodine fell 50% from 1970 to now.  A Medium Urinary Iodine Concentration test will indicate intake.  TSH and T4 will not show iodine intake deficiency until damage is being done. Most newly diagnosed Celiac Disease and other autoimmune diseases are deficient in vitamin D when diagnosed.  Other than bone growth, vitamin D is essential for mental health and the immune system.
