Welcome to the Downshiftology community Jennifer! Always trust your instincts – especially when it comes to things that are potentially labeled as “GF”.

Literally, “listen to your gut” instincts too! I ordered a personal GF pizza in a hip Portland OR restaurant and noticed the delicious chewy crust. Uhh oh! I asked my waiter if he was sure this was GF and he looked at it and ran back to the kitchen. Nope, I had just downed half a pizza (it was so good) that was wheat. My GF reaction takes 2 weeks, in the form of itchy hives on my body, that can last a month from that one mistake :(
By the way, thank you for all your amazing help and guidance on this journey. I only discovered your Youtube videos a week ago!

Hi Lisa,

Your link to the activated charcoal went to a mascara link in amazon… Can you update the link or send me the link to the activated charcoal you use?

Thank you!

In reply to Annie. Yes, it can definitely be a little nerve-wracking sometimes. But the adventures and memories are definitely worth it! Glad I could inspire you to be bold and venture out again. :) x

Amen, brother. Getting glutened is terrible. We get so cavalier because we want to be normal and LIVE life. Nothing like a gluten attack to smack you down for awhile. I applaud you. I’ve become slightly chicken and cook for myself. The pretentious gluten free people have made jokes of the serious Celiac people who truly need to be be gluten free that even serious chefs get weary of gluten free requests.
You do make me want to venture out and be bold again.

In reply to Lisa Bryan | Downshiftology. Also, if you just do a Google search for "downshiftology" and "bali" other articles will show.

In reply to BL.

Yes! I wrote a whole Bali Travel Guide: https://downshiftology.com/gluten-free-bali/ You’ll fall in love with Ubud and the coastal areas are wonderful. I’m jealous! Definitely rent a villa (some are quite cheap) and make sure to ask for a discount if you’re staying in the same spot for several weeks (I talk about this in my ebook). Unfortunately I don’t have a general search function, just one for recipes, but that will be fixed in a few months once my website is redesigned. So happy for you and your Bali adventures! :) x

I know this is an old post – but do you outline any places you stayed in Bali? I’m gluten-free so your guide is great. I just got glutened at home and know this feeling! I am looking first to go to Ubud for yoga, healthy eating and relaxation but also want to head to the coast etc. Not in my early 20s for partying but want to explore a bit. I know you can rent a lot of places but will be there for a few weeks so can’t do luxury every day! If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks for the GF food guide! (do you also have a search function on your website – I can’t find on your blog).

[…] delicious (with no granola). Just don’t order a bun-less burger, as that’s what glutened me. For 100% meat burgers, visit The Butcher Social Habit (in Canggu) or The Butcher’s […]
