Advice On Gluten Free And Safe Suplements Needed

Hey,

I have been gluten free now for a few weeks things are going well apart from being very under weight and a feeling of not having the strength to do anything.

So this is why I decided to get into shape (I used to be very athletic as a child). I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of gluten and dairy free protein powders/bars and towards supplements that are safe for someone on a gluten and dairy free diet.

Thanks in advance,

Hex

My supplements all say gluten, dairy, soy free on the label, nothing special, picked them up at the Rite Aid. As for protein powder and bars......aren't these all made from wheat protein?

I think I would just try eating steak and fries! And a big fruit smoothie with almond milk. :P Yum

Which specific supplements are you interested in?

As far as protein powders, as I mentioned in another thread I have never had any issues with Beverly International or American Whey brands. Bars-Oatmega 3 are the only ones that seem to have a decent ingredient and nutritional profile.

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      By melthebell · Posted

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\

      Jersey Mike’s option: Gluten-free bread

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JamieAnn!  Glad you had a good experience at your local Jersey Mike's.  In the town I live in all we have is Subway and they stopped offering gluten free buns. So, I can't eat there anymore. Oh, more recently there has come to our town a Firehouse sub shop and, according to the Internet, they offer gluten free buns but I haven't tried them yet. For super sensitive celiacs, cross-contamination in handling at these sub shops may also be a problem.

      Jersey Mike’s option: Gluten-free bread

      By JamieAnn · Posted

      Today, in Uniontown, PA,  I ordered Jersey Mike’s Italian sub on gluten-free bread (paid extra for gluten-free) for my brother who hasn’t had a sub in yrs (neorological prob if consumes). He’s so happy! Their gluten-free bread is from a company that specializes in gluten-free products, some of which I’ve enjoyed before, so figured a sub would be good!

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.
