Nutritional Dietary Supplement?


Catherine11

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a nutritional shake or meal replacement product that can be added to kale and fruit shakes.  Most that I have found have wheat grass or other products that cause reactions. I am currently on the elimination diet and don't seem to be getting enough nutrients so rather than a vitamin form I was hoping to find a real food supplement.  Any ideas? Thank you - Catherine

I have a friend that has Celiac and uses one sometimes, let me ask her and get back to you. I think a lot of the basic protein shakes are gluten-free. My boys have EAS whey protein and it looks gluten-free.

I've been looking too and haven't been able to find one. I'm still drinking my Ensure complete everyday in the meantime

My friend says she has two - one she likes better than the other. But she isn't sure of the exact names and she keeps them at work. So she will let me know tomorrow.

At the top of this thread is " follow" and you might want to do that to get notices. Also, click on yourself then profile then notifications.

If she and I forget - someone pm me tomorrow afternoon to remind me.

I use a protein product that can be used for juicing, shakes or just added to milk or water.  It's Sunwarrier Protein and is in powder form.  It is Gluten Free, Vegan, non-GMO and Hypo-Allergenic.  It is 83% raw protein.

Thank you for the responses.  I've found one at Whole Foods called "Phood" and will give it a try as well as look for Sunwarrier.  The list of no's for me right now are long - no wheat, rye, barley, etc, no dairy, no corn, and on and on.  It making this process a bit difficult but worth it if I can settle my symptoms down.  Thank you again and keep the ideas coming. :-)

I haven't heard back from my friend. When I do, I'll post it here and you can see if you can use it.

My boys like Vega brand in their smoothies. I prefer just to add hemp and avocado to my green smoothies (spinach, kiwi, celery, carrots, cucumber) to give them that extra filling power

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
