Hi!

I have posted before about how I can't stay full for very long and am constantly snacking (real hunger, not just appetite). Well, I went to D'Lites Emporium last week (which I've also posted about, appears to be only in Florida) and found several gluten-free products I'd never heard of. One of them was ExtendBar, and the company also makes ExtendCrisps. They claimed to be gluten-free on the package although there was a "made in a facility which processes wheat" warning. I thought if it really worked to keep your blood sugar stabilized and keep you feeling full, then it'd be worth a shot, so I got the apple cinnamon bar and the white cheddar crisps. Both of them worked! My husband suggested trying to find them online cheaper because they were each $2, and I found the company website. They actually test these products for gluten. Here is the link to the nutrition info:

I found a special offer online and wanted to share it in case anyone's interested. It's not cheaper to order them from ExtendBar than to buy them singly at D'Lites, but it is a little cheaper than Amazon. But this coupon's the best of all! $15.99 for 15 bars and free shipping. There are other flavors, and you can opt to get 2 of each.

The apple one tasted a little soy-like to me, but it wasn't bad at all, and the crisps were grrreat! They got me through my gym workout without a single growl from my stomach!

I have no interest in this company other than being thrilled to have more gluten-free options and having found a way to stop eating for a few hours. :D

Throwing in a warning for anyone who might miss the small print at the bottom of the page, the "10gram sugar" ones are not gluten-free, just the low and no-sugar ones.

Thanks, I just ordered some to try.

Ah, good point elonwy, yes, the crunch flavors are not gluten-free, but they weren't an option as far as I could tell on the special offer.

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
