Hi, I was wondering if any of you know if GNC total lean products are gluten free? I called their toll free number and someone told me they were in fact, gluten free, but I was wondering if anyone has had any bad reactions to the GNC Total Lean products?

Hello elilovesjay! I made my daughter some granola bars the other day and I added a scoop of the GNC Total Lean 25 French Vanilla protein powder. They came out great and she didn't get sick. She was diagosed Celiac in October and is very sensitive to gluten of any kind. I read the package and it looked safe to me so I went ahead and tried it. We all liked the granola bars, they were yummy!

      I think I’ve got it ?

      Chrissyjo, here is an article outlining the various blood tests that can be used to check for celiac disease: Many physicians will only order the ttg-iga test. It is the single best blood test tool for celiac diseae and relatively inexpensive. However, it is not a good choice if a person is IGA deficient and many physicians neglect to check for that...

      I’ll have to ask my doc, I thought there was only one type of test. No Yep I will. They told me too before the test anyway

      Too early for diagnosis?

      The Immunoglobulin A is aka "total IGA" and it is not deficient at 90. Tissue Transglutaminase AB, IGA, aka "ttg-iga" is the most popular celiac antibody test run as it is inexpensive and combines excellent sensitivity with very good specificity. It is typically the first blood test tool out of the physician's diagnostic bag and the best single one in...

      Too early for diagnosis?

      I just realized we had labs from another place as well. Not sure if any of these is the "total IGA" you mentioned: Jan 2023 - TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA was 17.5 (15 considered high) Jan 2023 - Immunoglobulin A was 90 (range is 22-140)

      It's funny you say that because as I was typing about my potential issues with gluten, I thought "wait. Why haven't I gotten tested." Honestly, it comes down to money and time. We have been pouring tens of thousands into her care (We don't have traditional medical insurance). And I have been off gluten for so long and have such quick and noticeable reactions...

Tissue Transglutaminase AB, IGA, aka "ttg-iga" is the most popular celiac antibody test run as it is inexpensive and combines excellent sensitivity with very good specificity. It is typically the first blood test tool out of the physician's diagnostic bag and the best single one in the absence of IGA deficiency. When it is positive, there is only about a 5% chance that it would be due to something besides celiac disease.

We have been pouring tens of thousands into her care (We don't have traditional medical insurance). And I have been off gluten for so long and have such quick and noticeable reactions when I do consume it, that I really don't want to have to eat it again! But, you have me thinking perhaps I should.  Thanks for the information cross contamination. That is very helpful!  Thank you!
