I'll be going to a conference this summer and staying near the convention center in downtown Minneapolis. Any suggestions for places to eat? I've found the local celiac support chapter's website and found a 3 year old list here: Open Original Shared Link but would like some updated info. Can anyone help? I"ll be driving, so I'll be able to bring things with me, but as you all know, going out is a challenge! Thanks!

There are so many good options in the area, especially if you have a car. First of all, Pizza Luce will be just a mile and a half from you and they have an amazing gluten free menu. They used to serve gluten-free only Tues and Wed but recently expanded to every day. They are at 119 N 4th St.

Brasa is another excellent choice. It is about 2 miles from the convention center at 600 E Hennepin.

If you want to drive into Uptown, Chiang Mai Thai is in Calhoun Square. It's at 3001 Hennepin Ave S

The Wedge Co-op is also in Uptown, on Lyndale Av. It is a very large store and they even have gluten-free bakery counter selections.

Fogo de Chao is a Brazilian Steakhouse at 645 Hennepin Av. I haven't been there yet but I understand a large portion of the menu is gluten free. It is on the expensive side but people I have talked to really seem to enjoy it.

There is a Jimmy Johns in the area, I often get an Unwhich. They deliver which is nice. There is also Chipotle and Noodles & Co. which are both gluten-free friendly.

This is what I can think of within a few miles. If you want more options in the suburbs, let me know!

Thanks much for the info! I won't have access to a car, but these give me a great place to start. I have a feeling I'll be at chipotle a lot that week. :)

      Gluten free vitamins

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      @llisa, back then when you tried magnesium and it upset your tummy, I'm guessing you were using the most common form of magnesium found on store shelves, namely, magnesium oxide. It has a reputation for having a laxative effect. It is not very well absorbed and so draws a lot of water into the colon, just like the laxative known as milk of magnesia. I'm guessing if you would switch to the "glycinate" form of magnesium you would not have this problem. Magnesium glycinate is absorbed much better. If you can't find magnesium glycinate at your local stores, you can order gluten free brands of it off of Amazon.

      I've tried magnesium before. Twice in 2 years. It really upset my stomach. And that was before this celiac disease diagnosis. (Finally, after 2 years of trying to find out what was wrong with me.) I have no idea how sensitive I am. When my stomach was upset, I'd go to my comfort foods: cream of wheat, cheese and crackers, scrambled eggs and toast...so, making myself worse by trying to feel better.  Just got results of biopsy yesterday, so today is first day of trying no gluten and reading that it can be hiding in vitamins and meds. So, I welcome ALL advice and personal experiences. No advice is too basic. I know nothing. Thank you!

      Have you considered also supplementing with magnesium and zinc? We usually recommend these two as well. D3, Calcium and Magnesium all important for bone and nerve health.
