I am interested in the Shakeology product, but am scared of the wheatgrass etc. Does anyone use this product with success or with reactions? I am very curious.

thanks,

Meghan

There was a post on this product a few months ago. If it has wheatgrass in it, it is not safe. Don't buy their claims that it's gluten free. I'll see if I can find the post for you.

I tried it (it says it is gluten free). I had immediate reaction worse than accidently eating something confirmed to have wheat in it. Steer clear...

I too keeled over upon trying this product.

Wheatgrass is theoretically gluten-free. I won't touch the stuff.

Exactly! If I could be sure all I got was just the grass part...maybe. But its too easy for some of it to start making seeds & they get included.

Fortunately, I think I can live, and not be too diasppointed, without wheat grass.

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
