Cherry and Apple...I had to stop buying them because I would just gobble them up like they were candies!

I like all the ones I've tried, but I had the Banana Cookie for the first time the other day--it was fantastic!

Cherry pie was the best one out of all the ones I tried. But then again I never tried the banana cookie. <_<

I think all of the flavors taste great, but they make me sick too. So no more Lara Bars for me :(

Hi

i was thinking of buying a box of them. do you think they have gluten in them that made you sick or something else in them?

thanks

I liked most of them, but I ate them so much I got quite tired of them!!! The only one I didn't care for at all was the one with ginger in it... icky poo

:lol: Nini--I really liked the ginger ones!! And the banana cookie ones--but I found I react to them--but it's the dried fruit, not gluten. From a gluten standpoint, they are safe.

Hi jesscarmel,

Like Patti, I react to the dried fruit and the nuts in them. They are free of gluten so buy away a box :)

I had heard people rave and rave and rave about this cherry pie lara bar. I bought one. I don't get all the hype. I didn't think it had much flavor and I wasn't that impressed. Not to mention they are SO small! I would buy it if there wasn't anything else around, but it isn't something that I would keep on hand.

I like the apple lara bars.

I don't eat them for flavor, I eat them because they are gluten free and give me some energy (and fiber)

I haven't tried these flavors yet but I saw there are now Chocolate Coffe, Chocolate Mint and a third (can't remember that one) - they are ecalled Maya, but they are Lara Bars. The Chocolate Coffee one (in front of me as we speak) has: Organic Dates, Organic Hazelnuts, Organic Walnuts, Organic Cocoa, Organic Cacao Nibs, and Organic Coffee in it. I'd rip it open but I just had some Snappea Crisps and my stomach is unhappy - it looks like they have corn oil in them now and I don't tolerate corn... :( I'll let you know how this is when I try it!

I LOVE the Maya bars!!!!! My daughter, Chloe, who you occasionally see on this board, hates them. She tried the chocolate mint. She LOVES Lara bars though. At least I won't have to worry about the Maya bars disappearing until my gluten-free 18 year old gets back over here next week.

The Mayan Chocolate one is really good, I like the flavor combination of the chocolate and cinnamon.

My mom and dad love the cherry pie larabars. I like the apple pie ones better.

I just realized I didn't know what in the world I was talking about :lol:

I couldn't remember the name of the flavor of Lara Bar that has chocolate and cinnamon in it, I thought it was "Mayan" Chocolate so I thought that is what you were referring to Carla. I was at the store today and gave it another look, the flavor is called Cocoa Mole, or something like that, this is the one I love.

I saw the Maya chocolate bars there too, they are new to my store.

Are cocao nibs, in the Maya Bars, the same, or similar, to coffee beans? I'm confused about this.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
