Hello everyone! I am not from Washington. However, I will be traveling to Yakima, WA in January. My husband and I have to attend a business dinner. Any suggestions for a "safe" restaurant in the area, preferably close to the Capitol Theatre. Thanks!

Port Angeles, WA here! :)

I rarely eat out as there is very little choice here, but we've found a few places that know about celiac disease and work to get me food I can eat.

Alder Wood Bistro is one such place.

They even offer gluten-free crackers. :o

Hi all,

This is my first time in a chat room EVER :) I was diagnosed with celiac a year and a half ago and have just started my kids on a gluten-free diet as well. We live just outside Shelton, Wa. Shoping gluten-free here is pure torture !!!!! I just started buying off Amazon but find it hard to order something I dont know that I like and the stores here have a less than adequate selection. I am hoping to find some friendly people here that have tips especialy on packing school lunches :)

Gluten free on Capitol Hill, here.

I've been lurking in the forums for months now, but will finally say hello!

I think we should hold a Puget-wide PICNIC and have a bread-off! Or a pizza-off!.... im hungry....

:blink:

I live in Bellevue. I would love to find other people near me who can't eat gluten, but I haven't seemed to have any luck with that yet. :(

Hi! I'm new to the board, and new to the Gluten-free lifestyle. The doctor told me I might have Celiac Disease last monday, and test results came in and confirmed this as of this morning (though I'd been doing my best to eat gluten-free in the meantime).

I live in Downtown Seattle (as the name implies), and I have only just begun my search for appropriate places to eat...

I've also tried to learn as much as I can about the disease, and foods I can/can't eat in the last week and a half, but there's so much information out there!! :blink:

Anyway, I just figured I'd say hi, and you'll probably see me on these boards regularly. :)

      Gluten free vitamins

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?

      Gluten free vitamins

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice.  Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria.  It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium Citrate at the supermarket or drugstore ($3).  One or two ounces of it  in a glass of water.  Add ice and sugar if you like.  I like the Cherry or Grape best. Instead try: Cream of Rice, Cheese and Good Thins (rice crackers), scrambled eggs and gluten free toast. Do you need Calcium supplement?  Calcium from supplements can cause hypercalcemia, a condition that can lead to serious health complications.  Vitamin D increases calcium absorption.  Monitor 25)(OH)D vitamin D plasma and  parathyroid hormone (PTH).

      The forms that vitamin and mineral supplements come in can be important. Bioavailability (i.e., how well they are absorbed) is often sacrificed for the sake of cost and shelf life. The vitamin or mineral you are targeting is always chemically combined with other elements to make them into a dispensable form (such as a powder, liquid or a pill) and to give them some chemical stability for shelf life.
