Fabulous Protein Bar!

I got a sample in the mail today of a new protein bar made by Lame Advertisement (I previously bought a magnesium supplement from them, so I suppose that's why they sent the bars). Anyhow, this bar is seriously delicious and I plan to order them. And they are: gluten/lactose/soy/casein free. I just tried the coconut almond flavor, and it was just soooo good to my poor deprived palate. Seriously delicious, really!

They also sent me a sample of a chocolate one...Ibut haven't tried it yet...will do so tomorrow and report on it.

Here's the link if you are interested...apparently they have a 2 for 1 deal going now. I HAVE NO CONNECTION TO THIS COMPANY....but I've seen discussions about protein bars and I had despaired myself of finding a good one. This has 12 g protein (not as high as I'd like), but also has Omega 3's and says they are great for the immune system and sensitive stomachs.

Meanwhile, here's the link if you are interested.

sounds good, do you know how many fat grams and calories are in one bar?

I bought some larabars the other day, looked at the fat grams when I got home and was shocked at how high they are...they went right in the trash!

Go get those Lara Bars..... the reason the fat content is high is they are whole food, good fats, not bad or synthetic. They are full of nuts (depending on which one it would be walnuts, cashews, almonds, all of which are loaded with good fats your body needs).

They have no trans fats or saturated fats, they are whole foods mashed together and they are really tasty. My daughter's favorites are Cherry Pie, Apple Pie and Ginger Snap.

Enjoy.

eb,

Click on the link that cmcm provided in his post, you will see what looks like an ingredients label. I didn't see it at first myself, but it looks like a picture (it actually is a picture) of a bunch of tiny words. Click on it and it will enlarge and it is all the nutritional info.

I tried to copy it but couldn't ('cause it's a picture file). best regards, lm

Looks like they're NOT dairy-free; the ingredients include several forms of whey protein.

I called the company the bars have 8 grams of fat and 12 grams of protien. I like the Pure bar. It to contains they same amount of fat and protien ($2.00). It's a nice special treat, say.... instead of a donut. Anbody know of a lower good fat, higher protein bar?

That doesn't sound like good advice to me unless you are SEVERELY overweight. We do need fat in our diets--but not the processed garbage that is in most prepared foods.

Looks very good. What did you use instead of wheat germ...did you just omit?

Keep in mind your fats are ok, as long as they are good fats coming from a good source. You don't want to go tooooooo low in fat.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

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

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      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 y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      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.
