Sparkly Soul Headbands-Truly Non Slip Headbands, and pretty too!
I have a teeny little peanut head. Up until now, this has meant that no headband, even “non slip” ones, fit me properly. Then my FitFluential friends introduced me to Sparkly Soul. The heavens opened up, and angels started singing. Well, almost. Sparkly Soul is so awesome, that for the month of February they’re offering [...]
Generation UCAN-Innovation in Gluten Free Sports Supplements Review-Part 2
In my previous post I rambled a little bit about Generation UCAN, both the product and the company. This post will discuss a bit more in depth about athletes and reactive hypoglycemia, and my personal experiences with reactive hypoglycemia and with UCAN products so far. The next post will be after I have had a [...]
WARNING!! Some Flavors of Muscle Gauge Protein Powder MAY Contain Gluten
I have not yet received confirmation from the company themselves, but as this has been an issue that I have been trying to get a straight answer on since 12/28/11, and today is 1/11/12, I felt it time to alert you all. Previously, (10/6/2010) I had written a review of Muscle Gauge Nutrition protein powder. [...]
Gluten Free Protein Powder Review-Gaspari’s New Myofusion Probiotic
Gaspari Nutrition has been a very gluten free friendly company to deal with in the sports supplement industry. And for that, I extend a huge thank you to the company in general and all the associates I have had contact with. I first corresponded with Gaspari regarding their gluten free products back in September 2009. [...]
Gluten Free Protein Powder Review-NeoCell Whey Isolate Collagen Sport
I was very, very skeptical when I first read about this product. After trying it, reading more, and reading some more, my skepticism is still there, but has been suspended a bit. Quite a bit. To explain, let’s talk about protein. My go-to source for all information protein related is Lyle McDonald. He has a [...]
Gluten Free Protein and Energy Bar Reviews-Quest Bar Update and Rise Bars
Thankfully, those of use with celiac disease and gluten intolerance are now seeing more players in the gluten free energy/protein bar game. It’s always nice to have options. I do think that I will have to create a page dedicated to gluten free protein bars, just as I have a page for gluten free protein [...]
Stooping to Bribery for a Good Cause-LiveLong for LiveStrong. And, Road ID. Keep a Celiac Safe, Will Ya?
Yes, I am going to offer a bribe. I admit it. It’s for a good cause, though. If you read my previous post, you know that I am participating in a charity bicycle event on October 2nd. This will be just 12 short weeks after undergoing my last knee surgery, and I’m just tickled and [...]
Gluten Free Protein Bar Review-VixiBars
What would happen if a Larabar and a container of whey protein powder had a baby? I have to admit I’ve pondered this question. I know, I’m weird. I’m OK with it. I’ve also had that combination more than once when I’ve been stuck without a “real food” meal. Both of these items are shelf [...]
When Life Hands You Lemons, Make…Gluten Free Chocolate Zucchini Muffins?!?!?
Yes, indeed. As I mentioned in my last post, things have been quite hectic in the household with health related issues, and then I had surgery on both knees last Friday. The surgery was to remove “loose bodies” (loose pieces of ick floating around that were getting stuck in painful spots) and assess the condition [...]
PureFit Gluten and Dairy Free Nutrition Bars Review
“No Wheat, No Gluten, No Dairy” Such is the tagline for PureFit Nutrition Bars. I was contacted by Robb Dorf, owner and creator of the Pure Fit line, to take a look at the bars and give them a taste. Robb graciously provided samples of the bars for this review. First, a bit about what [...]
