A few weeks ago we took a one week vacation to Maui (specifically the Kaanapali Beach / Lahaina area). We had an amazing time even with the tsunami warning and not really relaxing since we had our toddler with us. Anyway we are here to talk about gluten-free food:

There were may options while dining out. Most of the restaurants are small and cook from scratch. At no point did we get that blank stare, everyone knew what gluten-free was. Some highlights included:

Penne Pasta Cafe: Small counter service place with brown rice pasta.

Maui Tacos: Take out taco stand

Hula Grill: Very nice place right on the beach

Bubba Gump: I know, it's a chain but we were exhausted from the all nighter tsunami evacuation and I just wanted some simple grilled shrimp and rice. (they have an official gluten-free menu)

Foodland super market: very extensive gluten-free section.

Almost anywhere: The Fresh Fruit, Fish, etc!

There were others but rest assured if you want a vacation in an amazing setting, eating gluten-free in Maui is no problem at all.

Oh and here I am being interview on the today show about the evacuation: Open Original Shared Link

We stayed at the westin villas time share place. Family owns. I personally don't see the value in ownership everything there is just so expensive.

My family went back this year (without us) and said they noticed even more gluten-free options. One place is called star noodle. Bring me back some pineapple! You'll have an amazing time and don't sweat the gluten-free in Maui. A very easy location to get buy.

FYI, there's also a Costco next to the airport. Very easy to stop on the way to your destination on Maui.

      Do I have celiac/Gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      One of the manifestations of celiac disease that some people experience is a rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis. It has little pustules in the center of the bumps. There is no other know cause for dermatitis herpetiformis other than celiac disease. If properly biopsied during an outbreak, dermatitis herpetiformis can be used to diagnose celiac disease. Not ever dermatologist knows how to properly biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis. But dermatitis herpetiformis is generally very itchy. Concerning the diarrhea and the sulfur burps, it certainly is possible the cause is something besides celiac disease or in addition to celiac disease. Many other health problems are known to be associated with celiac disease. I encourage you to look into MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)/histamine intolerance, SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth), H. pylori and IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). And as I said earlier, there is always the possibility/probability that you are still getting gluten in your diet in unexpected ways.

      Thank you for your reply. Yep, the doctor made a mistake there for sure, but when my other doctor called she said I would wait for the referral to doctor for the gastro it can take months, and so long she thought it would be a good idea to stay gluten free.    I am really concerned about my problems tough and I don’t know if I am eating something with gluten to upset my stomach with the sulphur burps and dihareaa. I have also taken stool samples that I am going to leave on Friday this week and that’s another thing that I am worry about, if it shows something else. I mean, if am ”gluten free” why do I have problems with the stomach still? As I understand, the problem with dihareaa and other problems is when you get gluten in you by mistake for example?    I have this rashes to, going to try to upload them here.  Here is the link to the pictures of the rashes, it’s not itchy.      https://postimg.cc/gallery/p2N8kT7

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Also, Vera Salt and Ava Jane's taste SO MUCH BETTER. Not sharp, and i need to use a lot less.

      I've recently researched a lot about salt lately. Celtics sea salts have minerals, which have been tested to include aluminum, cadmium, iron, lead, and microplastics. I used to use Redmond salt, but it tests as having aluminum, iron, and lead. I finally settled on 2 clean salts: Vera Salt, which you can only order from their web site. Also Ava Jane's which I got from Amazon. These are now the only 2 I use.

      Has anyone struggled with high blood pressure?

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had horrible reaction to lisinopril, a severe cough that kept me up all night. The cough is apparently common. I did better with irbesartan, no cough, and it controlled my BP better too.
