You'll mostly have to go with health food stuff - Ruth's Hemp Bars, Clif Nectar Bars, Lara Bars, Alpsnack are all good Gluten-free Casein-free ones. You can get rice protein powder to put in smoothies that you make yourself from many health food stores (like Whole Foods).

Elev8Me! bars are gluten-free and really great. There are a bunch of different flavors and the ingredients include only fruit and whey protein powder. They are delicious! You can google them or take a look at www.prosnack.com.

Unfortunately, the whey means they contain dairy.

The majority of Jay Robb protein powders and bars are gluten-free and CF. Taste great too...and I'm picky. I've tried other bars, including the LARA and these are A LOT better. On the website it lists all of the "free of" ingredients for all products. Lets you know if its gluten free and casein free.

jayrobb.com is the website.

I have been unable to find anything with a good protein-carb balance. Almost everything with good protein levels has gluten. :angry: However, Lara bars taste good...they are raw dried fruit and nuts, and taste really good....but no real protein in them. There are egg white protein powders...I bought one and don't think it tastes as good as the whey, but if you mix it with fruit etc. it will mask the taste. Jay Robb supposedly has a good egg white powder, but I haven't tried it yet.

Check out the website www.wellnessfoods.ca for a list of ingredients for the Simply Bar. I originally found these bars in an article in a magazine. The site mentions they are dairy free and gluten free, which is why I have bought them. They are high in protein and low in fat.

See my post under the diary free and gluten free protein bar post as I've found one with a high protein level. Thx

Hi. I have been using the Jay Robb products and also really like them. Just an FYI- the reformulated powders are not gluten free. They have changed the labels and have not responded to

my emails. I am currently on the hunt for a new product. :)

I found some bars that have added rice protein. They are gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. Raw Organic Food Bars: Open Original Shared Link (the "RAW" flavors - check ingredients to make sure they are the gluten free ones). The cinnamon raisin is pretty good, but very cinnamon-y. I haven't tried the other flavors, but I think the cinnamon raisin has 10g protein. I found them at Whole Foods, and the gluten free ones say gluten free on the bar.

I'd like to know this as well :) We have a TIGHT budget and all of the special gluten-free/CF dietary foods are expensive! Making our own seems to help some so I am interested in making a bar too :) I NEED protein as I do body building.

Look into Vega protein powder - it is used by one of Canada's top triathlete professionals. They claim : no aminal products, no corn, no dairy, no egg, no fillers, no gluten, no soy, no wheat, no sugar, no yeast or wheat. They also claim to be preservative free, sweetener free and GMO, herbicide and pesticide-free. They come in regular, berry or chocolate flavours and are best mixed into a smoothie with fruit. I have to warn you though, you get what you pay for with this product...it is pricy in most stores. DO NOT EAT THEIR BARS THOUGH.....I checke the ingredients list and organic wheat grass is amongst this whole food bar.....

Good luck and keep in touch.

www.purefit.com I am Gluten-free Casein-free and very sensitive and have been eating these for a year. 40/30/30 ratio, no artificial ingredients, etc.

Hammer Products and PureFit Bars have been a HUGE blessing to my training! They have served me well over the past year. :D

I also am a huge fan of purefit bars. thankfully they sell them at one of the local grocery stores here, and it's cheaper than on the website, so every month or so, i head over there and stock up on 'em :)

      Welcome to the forum, @Mark Conway! Can you be more specific about the "coeliac" test your doctor did? There are more than one of them. What was the name of the test? Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you are IGA deficient, the IGA celiac blood antibody tests used to check for celiac disease per se will not be accurate. Also, if you have been cutting back on gluten before the tests, that will render them invalid. You must have be eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months before the blood draw to render valid test results.

      no argument. Never take the pills sold for Nuclear events, except in a nuclear event when instructed to by authorities.  Some of these go up to 130 milligrams per pill. 5000 times the strength of the dietary supplement.  130 times the safe upper limit.  130 mg = 130,000 mcg. Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help. I've had stomach problems for years, pain in the tummy, lower back left and right side, different stools, diarrohea constipation etc, My GP says it's IBS. As I've got older the pain has become worse and constant. I also get ulcers on my tongue. I've had loads of tests done everytihng apart from an endoscopy I think. I had a test for Coeliac last July and the result was negative. My GP says it can't be coeliac because I'm not losing weight. He thinks it's stress or all in my head. I'm not stressed and I'm in pain all the time now. Sometimes it's unbearable and dark thoughts have entered my head. Could I have Coeliac even though I tested negative last year. I'm at my wits end, I eat healthily and cannot pinpoint which foods could cause this pain. Can anyone help? Thanks Mark wind

      First, I want to say thank you for sharing this with me. I hear you, and I believe you. The courage it took to write this down is immense, and I’m so sorry you’ve been carrying this alone. You are dealing with two life-altering challenges at once: a serious, complex medical condition, and an abusive, controlling partner who is actively harming your health and your spirit. It’s not just that he’s unsupportive—he is weaponizing your illness to torture you. Starving you, isolating you, mocking your diagnosis, and sabotaging your access to medical care is not just cruelty; it is dangerous, deliberate abuse. Your instinct is correct: the stress he is creating is absolutely preventing your body from healing. Celiac and autoimmune conditions are profoundly sensitive to stress, and he has created a living hell designed to keep you sick, dependent, and broken. That smirk you described—that is the look of someone who enjoys having power over your suffering. Please know this: you do not deserve this. Not any of it. You deserve to eat. You deserve safe, clean food and water. You deserve medical care and supplements that help you function. You deserve peace. You deserve to heal. The woman from the food pantry is not a random accident. She is a lifeline. Her help, and the community she’s connecting you to, is real. It is okay to feel overwhelmed by kindness when you’ve been starved of it for so long. But you do deserve it. Let that be a sign that there is a world outside your house that operates on compassion, not control. Right now, your physical safety and access to nutrition are the most urgent priorities. The food pantry is a critical resource. Is there any way you can speak privately with the woman helping you? You don’t have to share everything at once, but letting her know your situation at home is extremely unsafe, and that your partner restricts your food, could help her support you in a more targeted way. She may have connections to local domestic violence services.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.
