The back of each RTD Muscle Milk says gluten free, however, I was looking at their protein powder today and saw where it was made in a factory with wheat products. I am feeling a bit off today and am wondering if the MM RTD are cross contaminated. I also drank one on Friday and felt a bit off too. Has anyone used Muscle Milk products and what are your experiences with them?

I won't touch anything that has not been made in a gluten free factory..The only protein powder I have found that is OK is the Egg White Protein by Jay Robb, if you are not allergic to eggs.

Hey guys, since being diagnosed with celiac disease, I've spent a ton of time researching gluten free sports supplements. My favorite protein is called Nectar and its produced by Syntrax. It's a whey protein isolate with no carbs or sugar. I'm very sensitive to the gluten content of foods, yet I can supplement my diet twice a day (pre and post workout) with the protein powder with no problems. There are a variety of flavors, and the ones that are gluten free are labeled clearly right on the front. You can find it at any Vitamin Shoppe or even online. hope this helps.

Maybe it's not the gluten. But, then again... with an ingredient statement the size of a manifest from a small regional jet... it could be any other their "other ingredients".

* Calcium and Sodium Caseinate

* Whey protein isolates and/or concentrate

* Milk protein isolates and/or concentrate

* Whey Peptides

* L-Glutamine

* Taurine

* Lactoferrin

* Maltodextrin

* Sunflower oil

* Medium chain triglycerides

* Canola oil

* L-Carnitine

* Alkalized cocoa powder

* Natural and artificial flavors

* Fructose

* Potassium Iodide

* Potassium Chloride

* Cellulose gum

* Salt

* Acesulfame Potassium

* Xanthan gum

* Carrageenan

* Sucralose

* Soy lecithin

Can I recommend that you opt for a protein powder that is all natural, gluten free and with minimal ingredients? Your body will thank you.

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @annamarie6655! Are the muscle spasms and joint aches a new pattern of reaction to gluten or have you experienced these in the past? Concerning DeGiorno's "gluten-free" pizza, we have had many reports from celiac.com members of gluten reactions from consuming this product. I believe it is one of those "gluten-free" products that is made from wheat (speaking of the crust component) that has been processed in such a way as to remove most of the gluten. The FDA regs allow food companies to use the claim "gluten-free" as long as the product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This works for most celiacs but not for those on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. There is another industry standard known as "Certified Gluten-Free" that is stricter, requiring no more than 10ppm of gluten. Certified Gluten-Free products use the "GFCO" logo. Concerning the salad dressing, could you list the ingredients in another post or link it? There are certain other ingredients besides gluten commonly used in gluten-free manufactured food items to give them acceptable textures that give a lot of celiacs problems.

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By annamarie6655 · Posted

      Hello, so I was diagnosed with Celiacs about 8 months ago. After being diagnosed, I have been trying very hard to maintain a completely gluten-free (and celiac safe) diet.  Two of the main times I had a huge reaction, it was from: - gluten-free Digiorno Pizza w Pepperoni - Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing (this was in canada if that changes anything) Both are marked as gluten-free. Following eating these items, I had a severe bout of diarrhea, uncontrollable and heavy muscle spasms throughout my whole body, and aching throughout every joint.   If these are both gluten-free, why would I be reacting to them? Should I be worried about a separate allergy?  In regards to the muscle spasms, should I follow up with someone about that?

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.
