"Not being able to eat salads is due to your osteoporosis, not gluten, correct?" Not being able to eat salads is because of the endometriosis being on my intestines. To my knowledge, osteoporosis is not affected by food.
I am fearful of eating out, but have done it. I have my trusted restaurants that I know serve gluten free food or have a good choice of foods (like cafeterias or buffets, where I can pick and choose). A lot of 'mystery foods' that made me sick when I was younger and did not know about gluten has now been solved--gluten, and I did not know or even heard of it back then.
Traveling is difficult, and I've learned to bring my own-especially snacks. I've also have learned to research restaurants, although one sandwich shop advertised as selling gluten free (I thought they had their own Gluten free bread), but when I got there, they did not have anything that was gluten free. needless to say, I was upset and went elsewhere.
