Slim Fast

OK, I am not trying to find a weight loss shake. While I could stand to lose weight, I'm just trying to find something quick in case I get stuck somewhere and I get hypoglycemic and can't get a meal.

I tried the Boost high protein, but it made me REALLY sick. :ph34r: Too much milk protein at once, I think, or drinking it fast was a bad idea. Either way I'm not drinking it again.

I'm looking for more of a soy base if I can find one. Yes, I know soy may be bad for me, but it's not an everyday thing, and eliminating soy is not a priority for me right now.

Slim fast won't guarantee any of their products as gluten-free, but does anyone drink them without problems?

I really need a shelf stable meal-replacement shake.

Thanks! :)

Aren't some of the carnation instant breakfast things ok? I know some of them come in cans. You would have to call and check on the gluten-free status, but it's worth a shot.

I also saw some "Healthy Mom" shakes in the baby aisle that were labeled gluten-free... you don't have to be a mom to drink them, they are just extra energy type shakes, helpful for any woman...

I drink Slim Fast Rich Chocolate Royale Optima shakes with no problem. I buy the 30-pack at Sam's Club. I need something to grab on the run when I have to work opening at the store, and this takes care of the hunger until I can get a meal. It doesn't give me the "sugar shakes" like candy bars do.

Hope this helps! Not sure if that would be too much milk or not......they list the ingredients on the site.

I think the Carnation Instant Breakfast rich chocolate is gluten free. Not the milk chocolate one. They're pretty good, too.

      Dealing with gas an stomach pain.

      HI @Kwinkle I am not sure where you are posting from, but here in the UK it is most definitely gluten free.  I think you ought to try contacting the manufacturers or distributors locally to see what they say.  Cristiana https://www.boots.com/gaviscon-peppermint-liquid-relief-oral-suspension-300ml-10023763#:~:text=or during pregnancy.-,This product is sugar free and gluten free.,are pregnant or breast feeding.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Lotte18 · Posted

      Hi Matt,  So sorry you're having to suffer all this.  I'm just chiming in on your dairy question because the answers are often far from what we or our doctors assume.  For example, I thought I could go back to having dairy once my intestinal villi healed.  I was fine for about 8 months.  And then I wasn't.  Started having weird issues with maintaining my balance while walking.  Even my PCP who has celiac didn't relate it to dairy.  Had to have a second endoscopy with enzyme testing.  Sure enough my pancreas no longer produces enough Lactase to process lactose.  My GI just brushed it off as, "common for people with celiac."    I'd never seen or heard that before.  I should have pressed him on it.  Common for celiacs who are women?  Common for celiacs of a certain age group?  But I was so surprised I didn't say anything.  Maybe Scott has more information on celiac and pancreatic function.  At least I'm back to walking upright!

      Hi Christina, i’m interested in this gaviscon Dimension but when I look it up on Amazon, I don’t see that it says it’s gluten-free?   Thank you Sorry, not dimension - it was supposed to say ‘that you mentioned’. Duh 🙄

      Hi Deanne! Thanks for support but mu other EGD show normal VA (but some of the samples were not readable) but overall normal egd so after 1 year there is normal villi. I am glad that You solved our problem. Kind regards, matt
