Does anybody have recommendations of restaurants in Barcelona that have gluten-free options? DD (age 5) and I both have celiac. We will be staying off of the Ramblas near the Gothic Quarter.

Hi there!

My husband and I are planning to visit Barcelona next year so I have been doing a little digging. I ran across this blog that talks a little bit about gluten-free dining in Barcelona which may help a bit. :)

Hi, we were in Barcelona last year before a cruise. We were only there for one day before and one day after the cruise. Our daughter is a celiac. As it was a public holiday there were many places closed. We were very tired after a long flight from Australia so we didn't fancy walking around looking for somewhere to eat for too long. We had to resort to having dinner at The Hard Rock Cafe which is far from a Spanish experience. The reason we did that was because we knew that they had a gluten free menu and it was just easier to go there than have to try and find a celiac friendly place. She had a burger without the bun which she liked. For breakfast we had some rice cakes with peanut butter which we packed in our case and some fruit. The markets were closed or else we could have found something there probably.

If you google you will find some suggestions. Many of the suggestions were located too far form where we were staying but there are some places in Barcelona which do cater for a gluten free diet. Aparently the main department store has a food section which has gluten free goods. Again, it was closed when we were there so I can't comment on the range.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      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.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By marinke · Posted

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      @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.
