Protein: Gluten Free And Dairy Free And Soy Free?

I started a weight training program recently, and I'm trying to find a post-workout protein source (bars, powders, shakes) that doesn't have gluten, dairy, or soy in it. Other than keeping beef jerky in the car, what are my options? My preference is a bar, but I'll take any suggestions.

There are some nut based bars but overall you are unlikely to find too much on this front.

Hard boiled eggs, but you should keep them cold. A jar of peanut butter/sunflower seed butter and a spoon. The tiny cans/packets of tuna?

All of the powdered things I've tried have been awful beyond belief, and I don't even know which are gluten-free.

I ended up choosing one of the Nutiva Hemp products. The guy at whole foods said he thought it tasted the best. Most of the hemp and rice proteins just don't have as much protein per serving. I think the one I got has 11 grams. That's about half or one third of what some of the other powders have per serving.

So how much protein do I really need IMMEDIATELY after a work out? I can get enough protein during the day in general. I just can't get home and cook up some meat right after lifting.

If you are looking to put on lean mass, you actually need protein before AND after your work out. One of the easiest, cheapest and most convenience is the 100% all natural turkey breast from Costco. It comes in a 3 pack that tear apart for about $6.00. Each package is resealable. You can roll them up or eat the whole thing out of the package with a knife and fork! If you don't have a Costco, look to other retailers for preservative free lunch meats.

Also, almonds and walnuts are excellent sources of fiber, protein, and GOOD fat. Try to incorporate non-salted ones before and after a work out as well. Believe it or not, you NEED fat to build muscle.

Be VERY careful when purchasing beef jerky. Always read the ingredient statement as many of them contain soy sauce. And for hypersensitive folks like me, it's just enough to ruin a day.

Unfortunately, I found this out the hard way!

NOW Foods makes a pea protein powder. You can also make your own sunflower seed bars, etc. Ordinary garden peas are loaded with protein. How about a thermos of pea soup? Takes just minutes to make, using a blender. Lentils are a very good source of protein too, and the red ones make a good thick rich soup.

Oh yeah, I've been on this diet a while now. I know where the gluten is hiding. :)

      What should I do with these test results?

      By trents · Posted

      I would agree. The tests do not indicate you have celiac disease. So, if you are convinced that when you eliminate gluten from your diet your symptoms improve, I would conclude you have NCGS.

      By Jack Common · Posted

      My old results are: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 6.6 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.91 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) IgA Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) IgG Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 0.3 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 46.1 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal)   Then I didn't eat gluten for six months and after I started a gluten challenge. Before the challenge I did some tests as RMJ had suggested to do. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 28 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As trents suggested I ate 6 slices of wheat bread before the tests during the challenge. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.31 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 2.13 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As I can understand I don't have celiac disease.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      So it sounds like Global Foods has adopted the FDA standard for "gluten free" advertising.

      Agreed, I am disappointed in the recent GFCO findings as well and definitely don't hold them in as high of a regard as I used to. I did find on the Global Foods website after posting that their required ppm limit is 20ppm, which isn't as low as I had hoped. I'll email and report back. Thx.

      Never heard of them. They give an email address so if I were you I would contact them and ask those questions. It would be wonderful if they had tighter requirements than GFCO in the sense of more frequent batch testing and even random testing. Recent news articles on this forum from back in this summer have revealed that GFCO is letting us down.
