Has anyone visited Dublin and South East Ireland lately? Are there gluten-free foods generally available and labeled as such? Are restaurants receptive to requests for gluten-free? Any restaurant recommendations?? Thanks.

I've never been there, but I did a little research and found these. It seems to be pretty common over there so you shouldn't have much of a problem.

a lot of places in ireland are super celiac friendly (or coeliac as they spell it out there). it's easy when you go food shopping cos foods are labeled "suitable for coeliacs"

check out Fitzers, Temple Bar, Dublin - they actually have food suitable/adaptable for coeliacs on the regular menu !! they have awesome buffalo wings !

most restaurants i went to had gluten-free bread and one had gluten-free pasta

How did your trip go? I'm thinking about going in March and it was good to hear that it is so celiac friendly. I'm going to check out the links. My only concern is that in Europe, from what I understand, the standard for gluten-free is less than 200 parts per million. I know that i react to much, much less than that (30 ppm) so I'm a little worried. Any feedback greatly aprecitaed! Thanks, Beverly

PS What else is there to drink in pubs besides beer? I know I'm going to walk into a pub and JONES for a beer!

      Worsening oral health with celiac

      By trents · Posted

      The form of the magnesium is important. Go for one that has high absorbability. Most of us opt for magnesium glycinate. Mag citrate is also good. Don't settle for the oxide forms. They aren't absorbed well and tend to have a laxative effect 'cause they just draw water into the colon a' la Milk of Magnesia. Costco is a good place to shop for things like that. Also, good bone and dental health involves vitamin D. Are you taking a dedicated D3 supplement? Have you had your D levels checked? In many ways, vitamin D is turning out to be a master vitamin of human metabolism and celiacs are often low on this one. What was the numerical score on your IGA along with the reference range? I can probably tell you whether it was TTG-IGA by the magnitude of the score. The only other likely option besides TTG-IGA would be Total IGA which usually has scores that range in the hundreds.  I do think it important for you to get a follow-up endoscopy/biopsy to check for healing of the villi. If that isn't happening like it should, you still are not absorbing nutrients well and that could easily explain your dental issues.

      It doesn’t specify if it’s TTG I’m not sure how to tell for that. That would be so sad. We never eat out I try to be so strict. Yes many dental products have gluten! I only use ones that don’t on myself.    No follow up procedure has been done for healing. That is something I will ask about. Thank you for the suggestion.    I don’t take any Magnesium. What would be a good supplement?

      Is that TTG-IGA that is slightly elevated? That could indicate you are still getting some gluten in your diet. That should be within normal range I would think if you were truly gluten free. As a dental professional have you looked into the issue of gluten in the products they use in your profession? There are threads on this forum and also articles I think dealing with that issue. Have you had a follow-up endoscopy to check for healing of the small bowel villi? Also, are you taking any magnesium supplements for bone and dental health? Very important. It works together with calcium.

      I’ve had GI issues since I was a baby! They never did any testing and always said diet issues and constipation. Things got a lot worse when I hit 25, eventually got a diagnosis and I am currently 29. Yes, just recently saw my GI doctor in January and things looked pretty good. Very slightly elevated IgA but IgG was good. My ionized calcium is elevated too. I also have hashimotos but my TSH was good.

      Do you have any sense of how long before your diagnosis the onset of your celiac disease may have been? For most of us, there are years that pass between the onset and finally getting a diagnosis and by that time damage has already been done to body systems. May we ask your age? Also, have you had any follow-up testing since diagnosis to check for celiac antibody levels or healing of the villi?
