Protein powders

Which protein powders are ok for a celiac person? I know that whey powder and whey isolate are both naturally gluten-free and would therefore be ok. But, many are produced in the same environment / may contain traces...

Do you drink those shakes even though they may contain traces?

I use ON Gold Standaad Chocolate flavor100% Whey sold by Costco and Bob's Red Mill Soy Protein Isolate without any issues. They are both adverstised to be gluten-free. Of course, the problem with any question like this is how sensitive to trace amounts of gluten is the individual? We know now that the FDA 20 ppm standard for gluten free labeling is not not strict enough for some people. And then there is the issue with intolerances to dairy and soy and other common non gluten food groups due to damaged villi and dysfunctional immune systems that is the experience of many celiacs. So your question may not have a simple answer.

      My 5 months of Struggle

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Art Maltman! Ask your physician to order serum antibody tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. That's the place to start but you shouldn't be on a gluten free diet some weeks before the blood draw. You certainly have some symptoms that are characteristic of celiac disease and you have a first degree relative that has celiac disease. So, I think this would be an appropriate request to bring to your physician. Here is an article outlining the various serum antibody tests that can be ordered when checking for celiac disease:   The physician may not be open to ordering a full panel but push for at least these two: total IGA and tTG-IGA. By the way, absence of gut pain is very common in the celiac population. We call them "silent" celiacs as they have no or very minor symptoms. There are over 200 symptoms and spinoff health issues that have become associated with celiac disease and the range of symptoms and effects produced by the disease in different individuals various tremendously.

      About 5 Months ago I got a little bit sick and since then I have been having trouble focusing, rembering, thinking thought through, having pressure on my head and even just talking to friends normaly has become a challange. I also have been having yellowish poops. My father was has celiac but I am not sure if thats what is causeing my problems becasue I dont have any abdomnial pain like him. i have also tried going gluten free for a week with no results, but maybe i just need to try for longer. I have gone to doctors but they haven't had really any ideas as to whats wrong with me they just say it could be anything and try this drug maybe it will work. I really am tired of feeling terrible all the time and if any one knows if these symptoms are common to celiac or has any other ideas whats wrong with me please let me know.
