Hello fellow Celiacs,

If you live in NY and haven't tried Bistango on 3rd and 29th, you dont know what you're missing! I had the good fortune of finding this Italian restaurant that makes anything on the menu, gluten-free!! I haven't tasted such delicious Italian food like this since I had to go gluten-free 10 years ago. I finally found this place after living in NYC for 4 years (and LI/Queens my whole life). Even my husband who doesnt have celiac disease, loves the food (the regular food and the gluten-free food as well). I found out about this place through a great website called Celiac chicks (which Ive known about for years......probably saw this place listed on there but why I never went there sooner, I have no idea!) Anyway, this helpful website gives lots of gluten-free/celiac disease info. Plus, its a family owned business and the owner is such a nice guy (Anthony), which makes it so much easier and relaxing to eat there. I didnt feel like I had to obssess over whether the food was really gluten-free or that there'd be no CC, like I usually worry at every place I eat at.

So, I hope you try this place and enjoy it as much as I did. I'm a loyal fan. Oh, and by the way, the gluten-free desserts are out of this world!!!! They blew me away!!!!

Happy Eating! :D

If anyone can recommend a gluten-free/celiac disease friendly restaurant in NYC, please do share! (I also found Lili and Loo on Lex. and 62nd which has a gluten-free Chinese menu, also to die for/out of this world delish!!!

Celiac Chicks do have a very helpful website if you're NYC area!

Also check out Open Original Shared Link by a gluten-free (and allergic to nuts and fish, plus I think is non-dairy and if possible kosher) diner. She has a whole list of "safe" restaurants down the right-hand side, some with gluten-free menus and some who don't have a special menu but a very good at dealing with food restrictions.

Will definitely have to try Bistango soon...after I get to Gus's (which we loved in its former incarnation and before I was gluten-free)

      @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.

      We have had numbers of others on this forum report pain in that same area. Have you been checked for an H. Pylori infection? This is something very common in the celiac population.
