We all have a gluten intolerance. Our bodies cannot tolerate the gluten proteins found in wheat, rye, barley, and some oats or in any products derived from them. This means we must avoid many common carb sources for bodybuilders. Despite this, we will show each other and the rest of the bodybuilding world that this need not b ...

Oct 12, 2009 1:14am Welcome to brentonblack. You know, all of you, that we DO have a forum of our own here on the group page. Start a thread with a question or comment. I'm sure there would be some interest. And sign up for email notification when someone posts to the forum. That way you can keep up with the conversation.

Aug 19, 2009 11:16pm Welcome, wscreamer. I buy my protein powder at Sams Club--EAS. The chocolate is good and so's the vanilla. I don't know about other brands. Most MRPs have gluten, so stick to simple whey protein and add your own extras.

Jul 12, 2009 7:23pm Welcome our newest member--annamaywilson. I have already gotten acquainted--she's my daughter. Which brings up the subject--10% of a celiac's 1st level relatives (siblings, children, parents) are likely to also be celiac. You should encourage them to be tested.

Jun 23, 2009 11:09am I'm on tour through the central states for a couple of weeks with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I was really nervous about the eating. To lessen the problem some, I brought a lot of GF stuff with me--bread, protein powder, raisins, almonds, etc. One success has been some GF crackers that I made. They've been great. I'll post the recipe when I get back.

Jun 10, 2009 4:58pm All right! Now we can type more than 500 characters. We can start different threads of "discussion" so that we can discuss recipes in a different conversation than nutrition. We can subscribe to the forum so we get email notification when someone posts there. So dig right in and start a discussion about what interests you. Click in the forum window that is just below the window with all our pictures.
