Are There Protein Bars Without Oats Or Gluten?

I eat gluten free because it is the easiest way to find foods that fit my oat, wheat and barley allergy. However, I am noticing more about "gluten-free oats"- which concerns me as someone who cannot eat oats either. I would like to have protein or some sort of granola bar that I can keep in my purse for social situations when I cannot eat the food that is served... but I don't know if there is any product out there that will work for me. (I was diagnosed one month ago with these allergies and will be going back to the doctor in January for the gluten blood test.)

I eat 'Think Thin' bars. They don't have wheat, rye, barley or oats. They aren't like a granola bar, but they work for me at those times I can't eat anything else. They have 20g of protein in them. I know other people on the board eat other types of bars. Good luck.

I survived on larabars when I was first diagnosed--they are gluten free and oat free...and not to horrible tasting. I like the chocolate ones.

Yup. And if you don't like the strong date flavor some of them have, try the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip. The dates are undetectable. Just a delicious peanut buttery flavor. Nom.

I eat Larabars, Pure bars, and Kind Bars. I have to keep my sugar up and that seems to do it :)

i can only tolerate the gluten-free Nugo bars... that's it... everything else kills me because of fructose.

**just double check what you're getting- because Nugo makes regular gluten bars too- only 2 of their bars are gluten free

I like the Kind bars the best. The cranberry is a nice mix of sweet and nutty.

All the Tiger's Milk Bars except for the crunch flavor were gluten-free and have no oats last time I checked their website. There are also the Nature Valley Nut Crunch bars. They are marked "gluten free" on the front of the box and contain no oats.

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant b...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that...

      Brain fog

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Thanks to those who have replied.  To Cristina, my symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell. To Trents, We didn’t do any of the construction but did visit the job site quite often.  While getting the old house ready we stirred up a lot of dust and I’m sure mold but haven’t been back there for over a month.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.
