Protein powders

Which protein powders are ok for a celiac person? I know that whey powder and whey isolate are both naturally gluten-free and would therefore be ok. But, many are produced in the same environment / may contain traces...

Do you drink those shakes even though they may contain traces?

I use ON Gold Standaad Chocolate flavor100% Whey sold by Costco and Bob's Red Mill Soy Protein Isolate without any issues. They are both adverstised to be gluten-free. Of course, the problem with any question like this is how sensitive to trace amounts of gluten is the individual? We know now that the FDA 20 ppm standard for gluten free labeling is not not strict enough for some people. And then there is the issue with intolerances to dairy and soy and other common non gluten food groups due to damaged villi and dysfunctional immune systems that is the experience of many celiacs. So your question may not have a simple answer.

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
