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 practically live on kind, think, and larabars. I have never had a reaction to 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.

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!
    • Scott Adams
      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying it once. It's fortified with Calcium and Iron. https://www.warburtonsglutenfree.com/warbs_products/white-loaf/ The only other gluten-free bread that I've come across that is fortified is Schar with Iodized salt, nothing else.
