For shopping there is a fairly good health food store, directly next to the Outer Banks Bread Company in Kitty Hawk. Farm Fresh has gluten free foods, but not in a specific section. You should be able to find breads, pasta and cereals.

High Cotton, at mile post one, has super ribs, brisket and BBQ chicken and are knowledgeable about gluten free service. Just let them know. Ask for Will Thorp. But, most restaurants have fresh seafood and can cook it to your liking and most are happy to accommodate special requests.

Lone Cedar Restaurant (on the causeway toward Manteo) had the best scallops and a dedicated fryer for fries. Also, they serve the best cold plate I have ever eaten, with fresh seafood. There is an Outback in Nags Head.

Ordering in a restaurant at the beach should not be a problem, but I would suggest you go during non busy times, or call a head, late afternoon and talk to the manager.

It's beautiful there. Hope you have a great time.

I'm going to be visiting Corolla in Sept for a wedding and don't want to lug all my gluten-free food, if I don't have to. Are there places in or near Corolla that serve gluten-free or a grocery store that sells gluten-free?

Hey! I just arrived at OBX last night! I'm so glad to have had this post come back around. Most of my family is on the gluten free diet, so this information will come in handy. Thanks!

I don't get up to the northern end of the beach often, but I know there is a large Food Lion Grocery Store in Duck and Corolla. Food Lion has an extensive gluten free section in Duck, Corolla and in Southern Shores. Finding the staples should not be problem.

The beach is at it's best in September and October. Enjoy.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      By Baz · Posted

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      By DayaInTheSun · Posted

      I had shortness of breath so much so I went to a lung doctor. I told him I get short of breath wirh certain foods, he said “Food doesn’t affect hour breathing.” I told him maybe it was an allergy  he cut me off then said “Food allergies don’t cause shortness of breathe.” I beg to differ as soon as I figured out what foods were causing my shortness of breath it went away. I also never saw him again as he was rude, condescending? And refuse to listen to me kept dismissing my problems as “you’re young.” I cut out Soy, dairy, sesame, eggs, and of course gluten. I stopped being short of breath, going on a two years now. No thanks to the doctor I saw. Figured it out on my own.

      Pathology results - coeliac positive?

      By trents · Posted

      I would suggest you ask your doctor to order a "total IGA" test to check for IGA deficiency.
