Think Thin Bar -so Good

I know that people have mentioned these before - but I was at my Whole Foods stocking up on the Lara Bars (love the ginger snap) and noticed that there were some "Think Thin" bars in a bin above them. They have "gluten free" right on the wrapper. I'd never had them before so i grabbed a few! Sooooo good. I had the German Chocolate Coffee Cake. Yum. Really, really good. $1.29 per bar and a great option to tuck into your bag for a snack on the go.

Also, as mentioned above - i love the Lara Bars too. Also, $1.29 per bar - and they are gluten free, soy free, dairy free and vegan. big fan of the ginger snap.

yeah - it describes itself as a "meal alternative nutrition bar".

20g of protein - and lots of vitamin A,C,E and folate as well as some of the other good stuff too. It was definitely a pick me up when i needed a little boost the other day. I never really have high expectations with these kind of bars - but i really liked this one!

Darn!

I do enjoy the Lara Bars, especially the Ginger snap!!

Just looking to add a little variety...

I just ordered some energy bars from Gluten Solutions that have lots of seeds and dried fruits in them. I'll give you all an update when they come B)

wow, im really surprised everyone likes them so much-- i bought them on sale at whole foods one time b/c i saw they were gluten-free and i thought they were disgusting- i had to throw it out! The chocolate to me tasted like Atkins chocolate, had that "sugar alcohol" taste...then again, i guess thats what i should have expected given the name... oh well, to each his own...to me, bring on the carbs, and the flavor!! :lol: i tried the german choc cake and one other...Bars are the one thing i havent really found a perfect replacement for- i used to LOVE luna bars...clif nectar are good, as are organic food bars, and lara bars...but i havent found one that compares to my trusty luna bars yet...

My favorite Think Thin bar is the Brownie Crunch. I live off of these things.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Celiac symptoms

      By Dana0207 · Posted

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
