I need gluten-free and hyposugar freindly food for a very long road trip. If conditions are good the first leg of the trip is 14 hours of driving (stoping 3 to 4 times for gas). I was thinking maybe a "trail mix" of gluten-free ceral, rasins and peanuts? What other suggestions? We dont stop for much of anything and it will be an overnight drive will the toddle-monster sleeps.

Vincent,

I am hypo also, and we just drove 8 hours for vacation. I brought a LG. can of peanuts and a cannister of raisins and just mixed a handful from each (actually more peanuts than raisins) and ate that every 2 hours. Another thing that is good is seeds. If you buy them, beware of added MSG though. The ones I had on the road (sunflower) didn't have that, but many brands do.

Gluten free gorp is good: peanuts, m&m's (oh shush, it's not THAT much sugar in the grand scheme ;) ), gluten-free cereal of choice, raisins or crasins, sunflower seeds, almonds, soynuts (if you swing that way).

If you have a little cooler, I'm a fan of string cheese and gogurt. Lunchmeat roll-ups might be good too, with meat and cheese held together by a toothpick.

gluten-free pretzels, or rice cakes and peanut butter.

Fruits and veggies, dried fruits.

Beef jerky, if you weren't so averse to it ;)

PACK COKES JUST IN CASE!!!

Have a good trip! :)

Great ideas all!

Peanutbutter/rice cakes or the Celery idea would be tough to manage while driving though. :(

Sounds yummy... but I dont have m&m's so maybe some mini marshmellows? I have them! Seeds... Im not a fan of... last I checked I was not a birdie! :lol: SO what I bascily have is peanuts, rasins and mini-marshmellows LOL

f you have a little cooler, I'm a fan of string cheese and gogurt. Lunchmeat roll-ups might be good too, with meat and cheese held together by a toothpick.

Cooler? Do ppl still use those anachic things? We have a fridge :):lol: Googurt? I thought hat was pretty sugary, so I never looked at it. Guess I should!

Stringcheese is good idea too.

Not seen Bumblebars anywhere around here yet so dunno anything about them...

PACK COKES JUST IN CASE!!!

Hah! I've totally done it! If you can handle having skippy, they have a nifty squeeze tube that's good for travelling. Not the best PB in the world, but it does the job.

Sounds good to me! :) I think I've actually had that combo! Almonds are good, too...

Lucky! That's 75 bucks my husband hasn't agreed to part with yet <_<

Gogurt is kind of sugary, but it has protein in it too. Just don't eat it mid crash.

Oh, make sure you keep your levels as stable as you can. I find that when I'm up all night or don't get much sleep, my blood sugar is really wacky the whole next day and I'm ravenous!

I don't know much about sugar issues, but for me fresh fruit travels well apples, pears, bananas, etc.

If you can have nuts, get some planters peanuts or other nuts.

Potato chips don't always travel well, but they fill you up.

POPCORN!! Pop some up before you leave and put it in a big bag. If nothing else, it is a good filler. Have it with or without butter and salt.

Lastly, again sugar may be an issue, but what about making "rice krispy treats". I use fruity or cocoa pebbles instead of rice krisipies....

What kind of proportions on the rasins/peanuts/marshmellows/gluten-free ceral mix? 1/4 each maybe?

Well, since you have a refrigerator (I'm still archaic and have to use the old cooler ;) ) how about some Hormel Turkey Pepperonni. Says gluten-free right on the bag! I used to snack on these all the time. Low in fat, high in protein and deliciously spicey. If you're not worried about the fat, got for the original. I just never liked all that grease. This and string cheese used to me my favs. avoiding corn and dairy right now, so off limits :(

Tell your wife that I hope y'all have a great trip. I haven't e-mailed her in a while. Let us know how it goes!!!

Could it be that you feel "junky" because YOU STAID UP DRIVING ALL NIGHT? :P Glad y'all made it safely. Enjoy the rest of the trip.

At anytime I could find, I would try to find a local store wherever you are and find some fresh fruit or veggies. Anything is better than nothing solid. Hope you feel better and actually find something filling (I know the feeling :wacko: )

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Is this celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person.  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months.  Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl.  Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover.  It will hit your Lympatic system and spread  through the body and effect your nevous system as well. Most times when I get glutened it is from a prescription med that wasn't checked close enough.  the Pharmacuticals change vendors all the time.
