You'll mostly have to go with health food stuff - Ruth's Hemp Bars, Clif Nectar Bars, Lara Bars, Alpsnack are all good Gluten-free Casein-free ones. You can get rice protein powder to put in smoothies that you make yourself from many health food stores (like Whole Foods).

Elev8Me! bars are gluten-free and really great. There are a bunch of different flavors and the ingredients include only fruit and whey protein powder. They are delicious! You can google them or take a look at www.prosnack.com.

Unfortunately, the whey means they contain dairy.

The majority of Jay Robb protein powders and bars are gluten-free and CF. Taste great too...and I'm picky. I've tried other bars, including the LARA and these are A LOT better. On the website it lists all of the "free of" ingredients for all products. Lets you know if its gluten free and casein free.

jayrobb.com is the website.

I have been unable to find anything with a good protein-carb balance. Almost everything with good protein levels has gluten. :angry: However, Lara bars taste good...they are raw dried fruit and nuts, and taste really good....but no real protein in them. There are egg white protein powders...I bought one and don't think it tastes as good as the whey, but if you mix it with fruit etc. it will mask the taste. Jay Robb supposedly has a good egg white powder, but I haven't tried it yet.

Check out the website www.wellnessfoods.ca for a list of ingredients for the Simply Bar. I originally found these bars in an article in a magazine. The site mentions they are dairy free and gluten free, which is why I have bought them. They are high in protein and low in fat.

See my post under the diary free and gluten free protein bar post as I've found one with a high protein level. Thx

Hi. I have been using the Jay Robb products and also really like them. Just an FYI- the reformulated powders are not gluten free. They have changed the labels and have not responded to

my emails. I am currently on the hunt for a new product. :)

I found some bars that have added rice protein. They are gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. Raw Organic Food Bars: Open Original Shared Link (the "RAW" flavors - check ingredients to make sure they are the gluten free ones). The cinnamon raisin is pretty good, but very cinnamon-y. I haven't tried the other flavors, but I think the cinnamon raisin has 10g protein. I found them at Whole Foods, and the gluten free ones say gluten free on the bar.

I'd like to know this as well :) We have a TIGHT budget and all of the special gluten-free/CF dietary foods are expensive! Making our own seems to help some so I am interested in making a bar too :) I NEED protein as I do body building.

Look into Vega protein powder - it is used by one of Canada's top triathlete professionals. They claim : no aminal products, no corn, no dairy, no egg, no fillers, no gluten, no soy, no wheat, no sugar, no yeast or wheat. They also claim to be preservative free, sweetener free and GMO, herbicide and pesticide-free. They come in regular, berry or chocolate flavours and are best mixed into a smoothie with fruit. I have to warn you though, you get what you pay for with this product...it is pricy in most stores. DO NOT EAT THEIR BARS THOUGH.....I checke the ingredients list and organic wheat grass is amongst this whole food bar.....

Good luck and keep in touch.

Hammer Products and PureFit Bars have been a HUGE blessing to my training! They have served me well over the past year. :D

I also am a huge fan of purefit bars. thankfully they sell them at one of the local grocery stores here, and it's cheaper than on the website, so every month or so, i head over there and stock up on 'em :)

      Stomach pains etc 2 weeks after start of gluten-free diet

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      JuggaloDad,  A gluten-free diet is a cut and dry fix for some, but it's more complicated for many of us including me.  I suffered from an infant to age 56,  It took almost 10 years for me to zero in on non-gluten foods that caused me GI issues/pain.  Zeroing in on the non-gluten items wasn't as easy as it was for hidden gluten for me.  Dairy, coffee and onions was the easiest, but corn, nuts, strawberries and bananas were the hardest.  I finally did the Everywell test that matches foods with one's blood type.  The test showed I could tolerate cheddar and mozzarella cheese as well as certain nuts.  The test did show the positives and negatives of quite a few other foods as to how they matched my blood type.

      Stomach pains etc 2 weeks after start of gluten-free diet

      By JuggaloDad · Posted

      My daughter has only been eating gluten free for maybe 2weeks and she is still complaining about her stomach pains and I'm under the impression that that is probably long term sign effects that her body is dealing with.... She went months before the diagnosis and well if she is still doin the eating disorder things then I'm sure that is only prolonging recovery on her guts.... She is very withdrawn with This entire process so I can only go off what I see and am aware of.... She at first refused all gluten free food and is now only eating gluten free but not 3 meals at day or anything... dietary doctor said for he to eat in like snack portions ,which she does but i would like to see her eat more but I'm ok with he atleast tryin.....I know it's a lot on her....but Im hoping maybe within a month she will stop experiencing the pains in stomach ( as long as she isn't sneaking gluten) and she will see the positive side of it all....., I'm also hoping that once we get a diet situated that her depression and etc balances out...... She is anti medication ( which is weird knowing she was self medicating with THC ) , so I'm hoping the nutrition and diet balancing will improve some of her mental pain as well .... I know that at 16 alot of factors come into play but I just want my daughter healthy and successful and this Celiac is nothing to try to overlook... ..

      You could try CBD for her instead of THC, although I don't think it enhances the appetite the way THC does.  With anorexia appetine is everything.  CBD also attaches to the opiod receptors, without the psychotropic effect so it may help with the withdrawal from gluten. There are lots of vitamin and mineral deficiencies caused by Celiac Disease the the doctors are often not aware of.  Vitamin D, Thiamine (B1). Also B2, B3, B5, choline and Iodine are very common and it takes larger doses at first to replenish than the minimum RDA.  Deficiency in these slows the healing process because they process glucose for energy and iodine is essential for replacing old and defective cells.  Especially when dealing with anorexia.  As her small intestine heals she will begin to absorb most of the other 20 essential vitamins and minerals will be fullfilled though diet.

      Gluten in Escitalopram??

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Hello @Farmerswife As @trents said talk to your doctor about changing to a different drug.  I I was given a prescription for Zanax, took one dose and could not sit down for four hours.  Twitching all over, and my eyes felt like they were propped open with toothpicks.  Perhaps the old standard, often refered to as "mother's little helper" Valium would help. Celiac Disease causes deficiency of vitamim D.  Low vitamin D causes depression.  Starting at 1,000 IU a day I increased every few days until at 10,000 IU after 3 days it hit me "This is sunshine in a bottle" and I haven't been depressed since.  That ended a depression that had lasted from when I was 39 until 63 years old.  It was like an unending SAD Seasonal Affective Disorder. Another mineral deficiency that helped me was low dose, 5 mg, Lithium Orotate.  It reduced the anxiety that it had to get done now.  Most of our lithium comes in our drinking water.  With everyone drinking filtered or bottled water, we become deficient.  I think it may explain the explosion of mass shootings.  Between low vitamin D and low lithium intake, we are in a mental meltdown.

      Gluten in Escitalopram??

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Farmerswife! You are correct. Cornstarch should not contain gluten unless there is an issue with "cross contamination" with wheat/barley/rye in the processing. Even then, I can't imagine there being enough gluten in those pills/caplets/capsules to cause a reaction. Is this med in pill form, caplet form or capsule form? If capsule, it is possible that the capsule itself is made from wheat.  Another possibility is that your are "cross reacting" to the cornstarch. Maize is a fairly common cross reactor in the celiac community. But even so, there would likely be little maize (the protein component of corn) in the starch. Still another possibility, and the most likely one I'm thinking, is that you are experiencing a side effect of the med itself. It is an SSRI. Have you tried other SSRIs. SSRI's listed side effects include nausea and diarrhea. However, Escitalopram has the reputation of having less of a tendency than other SSRIs to produce these side effects. But you never know. Every individual is different. Have you tried other SSRIs?
