Hi all... kinda new here... I've gotten so much good info here on these boards so I thought I'd try to make a contribution or two... anyway... getting enough protein to support my muscles is not just vital to my own workouts and health but to my personal fitness training biz... when I first went wf, gluten-free, df I panicked because all my favorite protein and nutritional shakes were found to containin some sort of wheat, gluten or dairy derivative... anyway... I was so happy when I found the absolutely, most righteous shake I have ever tasted... I mean... throw some ice in with it in a blender... and it is the creamiest, yummiest "milk" shake ever!!! In fact... I even like this stuff waaaaay better than my former products... it tastes like you're eating something sinful... that it's hard to believe it's good for you... anyway... you can find the shakes here... either in whey or in egg whites: Open Original Shared Link or at amazon .com... he also has some bars and other products... the ingredients are simple and natural... and it appears that most of his products (except for the peanut bar) are wheat and gluten free... and for those of you sensitive to dairy and egg... he also has a nutritional shake and energy nuggets made from sweet potatoes...

Keep the tips coming! This is a great place to share information. The gluten-free diet is a hard at first, but this board really helps. I almost always find an answer to my questions by searching old posts. You find out pretty quickly that you're not alone.

Take care!

I use the Jay Robb egg white protein shakes, but not the strawberry one. It has stevia in it and I had a BAD reaction to that. I like the chocolate and the plain. But I don't use a blender. I did the first few times, but I found that it whipped up too much air into a froth and that was causing too much trapped air in my stomach. It was very uncomfortable. Instead I put however much liquid I want into a container that holds about twice the amount that I plan to drink, then put in the scoop of powder and about 4 ice cubes and shake until it is well mixed. I have found the egg protein mixes very smooth and very few clumps (if any at all). I like it mixed with Blue Diamond Almond Breeze (Chocolate or Vanilla) and it makes for a smoother creamy "milk" shake.

Welcome, Robina!

Just the sort of tip I've been waiting for. I'm gluten-free, DF and soy free too. The egg white option looks great, do you have a favorite flavor? I'm working towards my black belt test and it seems I can never get enough protein in for the tough workouts! Thanks for the tip about Amazon, I love ordering from them.

Welcome to the boards, they are truly worth their weight in gold for the info and support you can get here!

I love all their flavors... but being a chocolate fanatic... I've gotta go with the chocolate as being the best :-)

I signed up for the annual membership at Jayrobb.com when I placed my order... I was going to order from Amazon as I do for just about everything else... but then I thought about how often I drink protein shakes (twice per day - one upon rising and one post workout) so I figured I'd be better off in the long run paying the $24 for the membership and then buying my products direct from the company for the 10% per order discount...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
