Gluten And Dairy Free Protein Shake/weight Loss Shake

I was at my local health food store looking at protein shakes, and they all have some sort of dairy/whey in them.

Do you know of any that are gluten free and DAIRY free?

We were talking about whey protein on a different thread recently and someone brought up goatein. Don't know if that would work for you or not though.

I haven't tried the Goatein yet, but may pick some up this weekend. My problem with dairy is the casein, and there are some who believe the casein in goat milk is different enough so that it might not be a problem for me. I'm going to find out I guess.

Here is the link for you to look at Open Original Shared Link

There is also a few different brands of rice protein powder. I've used a few of those, but the carb count was usually higher than I'd like personally. If you're not concerned about that part, then some health food stores have pure rice protein powders.

Oh, and I can't remember if I've ever seen any "premixed" protein drinks that fit that description...there are probably some soy kinds.

Slim Fast has a new drink out that is gluten free and lactose free...they're pretty good!

This is gluten free and casein free, to the best of my knowledge. I'm assuming you don't have issues with eggs. I use this shake for weight GAIN, not loss, but it also works for a protein shake. I am Gluten-free Casein-free and I have had some success with a combination of Rose Acre Farm dried egg whites (cage free!) mixed with Almond Breeze Chocolate (Sweetened with evaporated cane juice) Almond Milk.

1 tablespoon of the egg white powder is 50 calories and 11 grams of protein.

4oz of almond milk is 60 calories and 1 gram of protein.

If you call that a "serving" you get 110 calories per serving and 12g of protein per 4oz of shake. Not much in itself but it scales up quite nicely.

I typically will scale this up 3-5 times after a workout to get between 330-550 calories and 36-60 grams of protein. Not bad for 12-20oz of beverage which tastes really good and is easy to drink. Mixes fine in a shaker cup as well.

I've found this to be the best (and most natural) solution for me. If you can't deal with almond milk (I like it better than soy/rice) you could choose soy/rice milk instead.

You can buy the egg whites online at Rose Acre Farms website. You can buy the Almond Breeze at Trader Joe's or online at Almond Breeze's website. I have no affiliation with either.

Hope that helps!

Ah yes, I do have egg whites that I add to my smoothies...these are powdered and I found mine at Whole Foods.

I have been drinking this:

Open Original Shared Link

I called and it is completely dairy free and they said they add no gluten to the protein at all. They also said they clean the equipment before different batches, however, they cannot certify the product is gluten-free (not sure too many companies can do that anyway). It comes in chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla and is sweetened with stevia.

Sometimes I use Jay Robb's egg white protein powder and mix it with rice milk. It's pretty good :)

I use a variety of protein powders for drinks or meal replacements; I aim to keep all my powders natural and low carb with no sweeteners or artificial sweeteners (they do contain stevia, except for the hemp and rice). The following are gluten-free and CF/lactose free/soy corn nut free/ no sweeteners or fake sweeteners- not even stevia: Manitoba Harvest Organic Hemp Protein (can buy anywhere online or Whole Foods, though amazon .com has the best deal right now with the brand Nutiva), and Vegan Rice Protein (doesn't mix well but is easily available at Whole Foods).

I also have found that the Jay Robb Vanilla Egg white protein is great (arguably the best) (contains stevia). The protein is from free range natural no hormone chickens, etc. but is expensive; it only contains egg, soy lecithin, stevia, etc. It is "made in a facility" but I have never reacted to it as contaminated (see note below for exception) and I am extremely sensitive to gluten. He guarantees no dairy, sweeteners, etc on the canister and the company is excellent- a few months after I bought my first canister from the Jay Robb website, I received an email that my batch had been contaminated with whey in the factory. When I followed up and contacted the company, they were very nice, they apologized for the cross-contamination and even sent me a completely free (free shipping also) canister of the new improved formula! I am pleased with their company and highly recommend Jay Robb if you can afford it.

Since I have been addressing my gluten issue, I find I can tolerate particular whey proteins also. Biochem makes a great line of whey-based proteins, most notably Greens and Whey, which are gluten-free and lactose free- they are the highest quality whey protein I have found and the Greens N' Whey gives the green superfood added benefit the other powders do not (it does contain Stevia in the Vanilla flavor). I don't know if you can tolerate whey in any form, but if you become daring and try it out be sure to only get whey isolate processed at low temperatures from cows not treated with hormones, etc. Any whey "combination" or non-pure isolate contains lactose. I do not know about casein in the powder, you'd have to call.

I am not doing these powders justice so please feel free to check out their websites- at the very least the hemp and rice proteins are guaranteed gluten-free CF, etc. Good luck!

GNC has some pretty good Soy protein powder. THe chocolate and strawberry are gluten and dairy free but the vanilla is not. I always add some friut to the shake and it makes it a bit better. Not as good as the whey protein shakes but I do feel better drinking them instead of the dairy ones.

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      These are labeled gluten-free: https://www.amazon.com/Corn-Husks-Tamales-Authentic-Flavorful/dp/B01MDSHUTM/

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
