I dont bother with creatine. Tried it but never got much in way of results. The ethyl ester gave me stomach problems so I would stick with monohydrate. Training when glutened. I would either wait until I was OK or just do a short light session. It doesnt matter if you train alternate days or consecutive days so long as you get enough recovery. If training...

Try whey isolates. They are usually lactose free.
-
Thanks for that. I will give it a try.

I think I will probably try some Muscle Gauge Nutrition whey protein isolate . It is listed as gluten free and lactose free by the manufacturer. Looks OK in the advertisements but then they always do. Open Original Shared Link Has anybody tried this brand ? Any feedback ?

Reply received this week:- "All of our products are gluten free except; EvoPro

It took about 2 months of strict gluten free eating before I started to feel good. The bodyweight and strength started to return from then on.

The only way to find out is to contact Cytosport and ask them, and hope they reply. I have just emailed them.

L-Glutamine is glutamine which is gluten free. It is the glutamine peptide, or peptide bonded glutamine, which should be avoided.
-
Yes I think that any supplements with glutamine peptide, or peptide bonded glutamine, should be avoided. I also agree with the caution with weight gainers as most of these seem to contain gluten. I have had limited success in getting replies from manufacturers. The manufactuer with the protein supposedly containing glutamine peptide and claiming it to...

I dont have a problem with glutamine, just the peptide bonded glutamine. Here are some quotes from a few articles:- "Glutamine Peptide derives from wheat gluten and therefore appears brownish in color and may have an unpleasant taste" "glutamine peptide (wheat gluten hydrolysate) in " "Peptide Bonded Glutamine 800 mg. (as hydrolized wheat gluten...

Whey protein is gluten free, but I have notice several manufacturers now include peptide bonded glutamine as an extra ingredient in their supplements which is apparently derived from hydrolysed wheat gluten. Most manufacturers with the added peptide bonded glutamine do now not claim the whey protein as gluten free but I have noticed at least one who does...

ARCHIVED Bodybuilding: Gluten Free Micronized Creatine? Please Help!
abdab replied to andrew-70's topic in Sports and Fitness
I have used creatine monohydrate without any problems. I take about an hour before food and if possible with some warm water as this helps it dissolve. I take one teaspoonful on non training days and 2 on training days. I tried creatine ethyl ester in powder form for a few weeks but it gave me stomach problems as if I had been glutened. I had a break for... -
ARCHIVED How Long Do I Have To Wait For Improvement?
abdab replied to ula1234's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I never had problems with constipation, in fact usually the opposite. But it took about 10 weeks of strict gluten free diet for me to return to 'normal'. -
Go see your Doctor and discuss with them. If you have been diagnosed then you are entitled to the prescriptions. The prepayment certificate is definitely worth it. I regularly get bread, crackers, and pasta on prescription. You can also get flour and some biscuits. Your doctor should have a list of prescribable items. If I had to buy the same amounts in...

Whey protein is dairy based. Whey protein does not contain gluten. However whey protein products often have other ingredients added so you do need to check with the manuacturer. I use Reflex Nutrtion instant whey protein which they have confirmed is gluten free. Whey protein does contain small amounts of lactose.

When I was finally diagnosed, after years of problems, my bodyweight was down to about 165 lbs. After 2 to 3 months on a strict gluten free diet my symptoms started to disappear and I could train and gain weight. I am now a lean 240 lbs. If I had not been tested and diagnosed I would still be a sick skinny guy. Tell your husband to stop being a coward...

You should not have too much of a problem in the UK. Gluten free breads, pasta, crackers etc is available in health food shops, and supermarkets such as Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury. Also lots of foods in these supermarkets are identified on the labelling as gluten free. If eating out many places will offer gluten free choices but you need to ask. There are...

That should have been LA Muscle, and I have just had an email from them stating that Komplete is also gluten-free. And they do sell in USA.

Coeliac - No sports - No way !! I was diagnosed 10 years ago. It took about 2-3 months on a strict gluten free diet before I started to feel OK. Since then I have not stopped. I am weight training 2 to 5 times per week. Walking 45mins every day. Training & competing in track & field during the summer. I am very strict on the diet. If I get any...

You dont have to take weight gain supplements to gain weight. You just need to balance your diet, get plenty of calories and get enough protein. I emailed several supplement manufacturers. Some replied some did not. I had some which were prepared to say that their protein powders were gluten free. Most of them would not commit themselves. I presently...
