So far only 2 flavors are gluten free... according to the web. Mountain blast and Grape. Other info claims they are all gltuten free. I had 2 of these drinks on friday and got a splitting migraine. Started drinking mixed berry powerade last night with gluten free dinner and got a headache, so i stopped. Finished it off later that evening(denial thing) and got a worse headache, woke up with migraine.

Anyone else have reactions to Powerade.

This is why I don't drink powerade or soda either. I drink plain water, water with fresh lemon juice - which is good and good for you, unsweetened green tea (an acquired taste), and sometimes coffee.

By the way, the more sugar you consume, the more your body will want. If you want to get away from craving sugary drinks, start cutting out 95% of the refined sugar in your diet and you'll notice that you won't even think about powerade anymore. This will also help with weightloss and probably fatigue as well. Just about the whole world is hooked on sugar, unaware that it isn't good for them. I read somewhere that it depletes your nutrients in order for the body to process it or something like that. I know I feel better without it, and I find it much easier to control what I eat.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
