Jay Robb's Egg White Protein Powder

Has anyone tried Jay Robb's Egg White Protein Powder? How does it taste? What flavor? If not, can you recommend another gluten-free/Dairy Free protein powder that tastes good? I saw mention of a rice protein powder and a hemp protein powder, but I'd like to know if anyone likes the way they taste before buying. Thanks.

I have tried the egg white Jay Robb powders in Vanilla and Chocolate. The vanilla smells just like cake batter! I preferred the chocolate, but found his whey powder to have a better taste and consistency. Adding a banana helps pump up the volume. I would rate them ''Acceptable'' but not Yummmmmy!

Sometimes for breakfast I mix a scoop of the chocolate powder with rice milk (I just shake it up in a nalgene bottle). I think it tastes really good actually. :)

I use the vanilla every day. Since I can't do dairy or soy it's great that this product is available. I usually mix mine with cran-raspberry juice, sometimes with rice milk added in for calcium. I also do the same and add Citrucel for fiber much of the time.

It's also great mixed into a smoothie with some variety of ice cream type stuff.

carolbond.com, a health food store in TX with mail order, their customer service is awesome, they have called me when I've ordered both the egg white and whey powders just to make sure I knew that I had done that...very attentive.

Hey, so it says on the website that it may be processed on equipment that also processes wheat. Has anyone had any problems with Jay Robb's Egg White Protein Powder in vanilla or chocolate?

I have tried the strawberry and it is good.

I use the Whey Protein from Jay Robb. It's awesome. I mix it with a little milk and ice, I use the chocolate and will sometimes add a banana or peanut butter to the mixture. Great breakfast. It's not dairy free though, I was trying to find one coming from the Muscle Milk (that one is, but has wheat in it) prior to Celiac Dx. :( I can eat small amounts of dairy now....

I don't use the Egg one because of the processing statement. The Whey one that I bought (unless it's recently changed) isn't processed on the same lines as wheat.

Hope that helps!

I used to use Jay Robbs egg white protein and loved it until I found out I was allergic to eggs. But they now have a rice protein with no soy lethicin,no dairy or casien and no eggs....so it was perfect for me. The rice protien definetly takes some getting used to. But every kind of rice protien I have tried tasts kind of gritty or chalky......it's just kind of the way it is. But the whey protein or egg protein is yummy and it depends on what you blend it with I would alway do the vanilla flavor egg protien with frozen starwberries or blueberries and vanilla almond breeze or fruit flavored crystal light and it was like a little treat for me everyday. It was kind of a marshmallow taste. Now since I can't have soy,almonds or eggs or casien I have to stick to the Jay Robbs rice protien and it's okay....the flavor is right on and good it is just the constinancy of it...and that comes from the rice......I guess it's pretty standard with rice protien.

      There is no scientific evidence to suggest that hydrated silica or its relative, silicon dioxide, triggers a celiac-specific immune response or causes intestinal damage in individuals with the condition. The concern you likely encountered online is a common misconception. Here’s the key distinction: the protein in gluten (gliadin) is what causes the autoimmune reaction in celiac disease. Hydrated silica and silicon dioxide are minerals, chemically inert compounds of silicon and oxygen, and are completely unrelated to gluten proteins. They are widely used as abrasives in toothpaste and anti-caking agents in food powders because they are stable and non-reactive. While any individual can have a unique sensitivity to any substance, there is no mechanism by which these silica compounds would mimic gluten or exacerbate celiac disease. Your diligence in using a certified gluten-free toothpaste is the correct and most important step, as it eliminates the risk of cross-contamination with wheat-derived ingredients like starch. Based on current scientific understanding, the hydrated silica in your toothpaste is not an issue for your celiac management.

      There is no single "best" probiotic brand universally recommended for celiac disease. The goal of a probiotic in this context is to help support the gut microbiome, which can be disrupted by the damage caused by gluten exposure. The most important factor is not the brand name, but ensuring the product is certified gluten-free, as some probiotics use wheat-derived starches or are produced in facilities that handle gluten, posing a cross-contamination risk. Furthermore, the specific strains of bacteria can matter; some research suggests strains like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium may be beneficial, but individual responses vary greatly. Because the supplement industry is not tightly regulated, choosing a reputable brand that undergoes third-party testing for purity and potency is key.

      What you are describing, while terrifying and severe, is an experience that others in the celiac community have reported during a powerful reaction. The systemic inflammation triggered by gluten exposure in someone with celiac disease can absolutely extend far beyond the digestive tract, creating a cascade of symptoms that feel like your entire body is in revolt. The severe pain, neuropathy, muscle and jaw tension, and intense anxiety and confusion are all potential manifestations of this body-wide inflammatory and autoimmune response. It's a well-documented phenomenon that a celiac attack can provoke a significant neurological and psychological component, including "brain fog," disorientation, and panic-level anxiety. While your first step should always be to meticulously re-check all foods, medications, and even cross-contamination sources, it's also possible that a previously safe product has changed its formula or that you encountered a hidden source.

      The substance you're likely thinking of is "mannitol," which is a sugar alcohol, and it is indeed used as a sweetener in some "sugar-free" products. However, for an MRI, the drink is almost certainly "Mannite," which is a brand name for a laxative preparation used to cleanse the bowel before the scan. Its primary purpose is not to sweeten but to create a clear image by distending the bowel and stimulating a bowel movement. While the names sound similar, the function and formulation are very different from a small-quantity sweetener. That said, your concern is valid and should be addressed with your healthcare team. The most important step you can take is to call the MRI department or your referring doctor directly. Explain your specific reaction to sweeteners in detail—mentioning the throat and ear sensations is crucial as it could indicate a more significant sensitivity. They can confirm the exact drink they use, check its full ingredient list for you, and determine if an alternative prep is available or if pre-medication is recommended to ensure your safety and comfort during the procedure.
