need help with making a choice on protein shakes to help with militiary physical fitness test. im currentley 21 and looking into the militiary once i finish college and becoming an officer. im pretty athletic i bounce around from about 170-175 pounds. i run about 3 miles a day so i burn off a lot of calories need help retaining muscle while getting rid of fat. any advice? im working on running 3 miles in under 21 minutes. my goal is 12 pull ups and 56 sit ups. i feel like i get burnt out of energy fast due to the wheat intolerance. any advice on supplements would be great. thank you!

It is not nuts at all. It is tough to eat gluten free even in the regular world and in the field or a war zone it would be a risk not only to the celiac but to the whole platoon if the celiac was to be glutened. Not only would the D be a problem but also celiac can effect every system in the body including the brain. My DS was an undiagnosed celiac when he joined the Army. The effects of the disease which came on full force due to the stress of boot camp and specialized training combined with the high gluten diet that those folks are fed were horrible. Not only was he in pain he also had severe neuro issues that to put it mildly made him more than a bit unstable.

they let vegan's in the militiary and make special meals for them. why should having a wheat intolerance be any different? i think this is a huge issue since celiacs disease is growing.

Perhaps it is because if a vegan accidentally ingests something not on the diet, their immune system does not react making them physically ill.

      Have Tru Joy Sweets Choco Chews been discontinued??

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets...

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values. Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup. I use them as a gluten free substitute...

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
