The new home for the Minnesota Twins is complete with a gluten-free concession list, with very healthy options. But what about the junk, the fun and kid food? I got some answers on more GF food at Target Field that isn’t on a gluten-free list — yet, but you can eat it NOW!
You may not be interested in hearing about wheat prices — especially if you can’t have wheat and you don’t buy products with it. But the extra cost in wheat could still trickle down to you.
New research published this week looks at the association between celiac disease and women’s reproductive troubles. Previous estimates believe more than 36,000 American women are infertile because they have undiagnosed celiac disease. The details in this new study are truly interesting.
Is it bad that I’d prefer my daughter have a reaction if she eats gluten? In general, if Emma’s had gluten, I really want to “witness” it. But why? Is it that former newsie coming out in me—the nosey side? Am I just a concerned parent or worse, maybe I’m just wishing the worst on my own daughter.
Long subject line- I agree. But it sums up our conundrum we had during our trip in DC. A first for us– seeing a glaring error in our gluten-free order at a restaurant that we couldn’t stop before it was eaten.
Sometimes vacation doesn’t seem so relaxing when you have to plan every detail at each restaurant –so you can be sure you get a gluten-free meal in a city that is completely unknown to you. This vacation: Washington DC. This, and the next few posts, hopefully will help you navigate your way through DC as a family.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve worked hard to get my kid with celiac disease to eat not just gluten-free, but also healthy– but is it enough? New research out of Canada says — maybe not.
A few molecules in the gluten protein found in wheat, barley and rye could be the “troublemakers” — the ones that cause damage– to the guts of celiac patients. Now researchers hope to use this discovery to create a vaccine!
In a matter of days we’ll be off and running to Washington DC with the kids — one of which is my 11-year-old daughter, who has celiac disease. So I’ve been doing some gluten-free dining research. Hopefully this post, and subsequent comments, will help you (and me) if you’re headed out there sometime soon.
I love it when restaurants have gluten-free menus. But I hate it when things go wrong with the meal. It seems to happen more often these days to us– is it happening to you? Tell us your experience in a survey.
