Kind Bars

I bought a few of these last week for the first time...and love them! The macadamia and apricot is really good, and I got them on sale for $1 each at Sprouts, so I was thrilled.

But, here is my question. I am starting to feel like a freak who reacts to the most miniscule amount of gluten. Last night, I had a few heart palpatations, which I only get if I've been glutened. Today, I'm feeling really cruddy, going through what I ate, yada yada yada. I don't want it to be these bars, they are so good, and actually kept me full for a few hours, I love them! But they are the only new thing in my diet.......has anyone else had a problem? Thought I would just ask, thanks :rolleyes:

I called the company about these bars when Starbucks began substituting them for the orange cake. The man there told me that they are made on the same equipment as oats but there's no cross contact with wheat, barley or rye.

Might you be reacting to the oats? I didn't try them as I'm positive I would.

Thanks, now I'm not feeling like such a freak :D I do react to oats, even if they are gluten free. Darn oats....they are really good bars too. Oh well, I'm sure my neighbor will like them!

I react badly to even gluten free oats. I eat the kind bars all the time and have hadno problems with them.

I love the Mango macadamia. Delicious and no reactions here.

I love the Kind bars and am very sensitive (oats are a no no, even the gluten free ones). I've never had a problem with them as long as they were the gluten free ones. Some of them are not gluten free.

Who knows then...I'm weird. I'll try them again at a later time, they are really good and a great staple to have on hand. Thanks.

I am very sensitive and react to oats, and I do react to Kind bars, but not too badly.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      But for someone with Barrett's like @Charlie1946, long term PPI therapy might be necessary.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      Aaaackkk!!! Stop with the Omeprazole! It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!! Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that has been shown...

      Aaaackkk!!!  Stop with the Omeprazole!  It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!!   Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes.   Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that has been shown to cause continuing villi damage to the small intestines!        Factors associated with villus atrophy in    symptomatic coeliac disease patients on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28220520/ Proton Pump inhibitors reduce digestive enzymes which results in poorly digested food.  If the food is not broken down by the digestive enzymes, then the nutrients cannot be released from the food and cannot be absorbed by the villi.  Damaged villi cannot absorb nutrients from food.  PPIs block Thiamine B1 transporters, so that thiamine cannot be absorbed.  PPIs reduce the production of the intrinsic factor required for Cobalamine B12 absorption.  The absorption of other vitamins and minerals are affected as well.    The Effects of Proton Pump Inhibitors in Acid Hypersecretion-Induced Vitamin B12 Deficiency: A Systematic Review (2022) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36545170/ Proton Pump Inhibitors like Omeprazole should be used only on a short term basis, like two weeks.  Continued use can cause nutritional deficiencies because PPIs prevent the absorption of vitamins and minerals.      Profound Hypomagnesemia Due to Proton Pump Inhibitor Use-Associated Wernicke’s Encephalopathy: A Case Report on Excitotoxicity https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12618944/    Proton pump inhibitors and risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency: evidence and clinical implications https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4110863/ Vitamin and mineral deficiencies contribute to health problems like Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Chronic Renal Failure and Osteoporosis.    Association between dietary intakes of B vitamins and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in postmenopausal women: a cross-sectional study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10621796/    The association between proton pump inhibitors and hyperparathyroidism: a potential mechanism for increased fracture-results of a large observational cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37530847/ Regular Proton-Pump Inhibitor Intake is Associated with Deterioration of Peripheral Bone Mineral Density, Microarchitecture, and Strength in Older Patients as Assessed by High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT) https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12546302/ Vitamins and minerals are essential to our health and can prevent disease.
