Boost nutritional drink has a fiber orientated supplement. I believe that all boost are gluten-free except chocolate malt.

Perrigo Labs makes a gluten-free "Metamucil" type. It is sold under store brands at Kroger, Sam's, Walmart, and some Targets. The bottle will have a logo near the expiration date that looks like a rectangle with rounded edges and a comma hanging off the right side.

Citrucel caplets, tablets, mix and sugar free mix are all gluten-free as well. Beverly

I LOVE Citrucel Clear Mix. It is gluten-free, says so right on the label, mixes with juice, and produces a wonderful effect. Try it!

Nature's Sunshine psyllium products are also gluten free.

Were you specifically looking for a chewable tablet?

We are - no chewables appear to be gluten-free. Let me know too if you all know of one....

My husband says that the fiber choice tablets are gluten free, but I have not called the company.

I've tried them all because I have constant D.... they all seem to work fairly well however Citrucil is a sort of fiber that does not ferment in your gut so there is no gas associated with it, there is with Metamucil. Also citrucil has a chocolate flavor that you mix with milk (if you can do lactose) and its really good.

For me it too a good week of monkeying with how much to take but I take 2 doses a day and I'm good.

I really like the effects of psyllium husks.

I make protein pancakes in the morning:

1 scoop protein powder

8 egg whites

1 tbsp ground flax seed

1/2 cup psyllium husks

Mind you, you have to ensure that you are drinking a lot of water! I started eating these every day and now I have 3+ nice bowel movements a day. It feels so good!

Where do you get psyllium husks that are not already flavored?

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?
    • Francis M
      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
