Just Tried My First Larabar ...

To all that mentioned Larabars before, I want to thank you.

I only found about 8 varieties (none of the ones I really wanted to try like the lemon and the lime ones) at the market today.

I bought four different ones. They had a lot of the nut and chocolate ones and I am not keen on chocolate (yeah, I know I'm a freak .. :o )

and I tend to prefer fruit to chocolate.

I bought:

Chocolate coconut chew,

Apple pie,

Tropical fruit

and

PB & J (damn, I thought I bought the cherry pie ...)

I tried the choc. coconut chew and it was very good.

Very solid. I could only eat half and then I ate the other half a few hours later.

Filling and tasty and not overly sweet either.

I am preparing for testing at the end of this month so I'll start getting them in earnest when I go off the gluten again after the tests (which I am sooooooooo looking forward to, as I all know that you can well imagine!!). Really great things. So thanks to everyone who mentioned them here. How can one feel deprived of eating choices when there such things as Aleia's almond cookies,

Larabars and Food for Life brown rice tortillas. I don't feel deprived at all :D

I love Lara Bars! I always keep a couple in my purse...my all time favorite is the Ginger Snap. I have one with a cup of tea just about every day :D

If you like the PB&J, you gotta try the Peanut Butter Cookie ;)

I like larabars allright, but I prefer Kind Bars, Boomi Bars, and my new find Ruth's Flaxpower CranNut bar. I have to fight my 9 year old over the flax bar. :rolleyes:

Does anybody know about the possibility of oat cc in Larabars? I've had to begin keeping a food journal after my celiac disease came ROARING back last year (lost 40 lbs. and have had an onset of severe osteoporosis - a recent endoscope showed flattened villa after 12 years of good scopes....alas.) I've been eating Larabars recently but had one today and noticed tummy trouble. I'm happy so many of you can enjoy them but I guess I'm going to have to strike them off my list.

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      Thanks for asking  I’m mainly looking for gluten-free staples and snacks. Any recommendations for brands or go-to items would be appreciated.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
