Default Good-Bye Protein Shakes

:( So I was diagnosed with a little thing called ciliac disease. It's something that effect your system of absorbing nurtients that you eat. The only way to "cure" this is to quit eating wheat, oats, barley, gluten, etc, and protein shakes happen to fit under this catagory. So if I can do this without cheating and still manage to eat 180 grams of protein, I will gain some seriouse weight fast and grow anther few inches.

I'm still pissed about the fact that eating/drinking protein can't be as convient as it did before and now I gotta really watch what I eat.

That sucks man, definately makes getting in the required amount of protein alot harder. There are however alot of people who only get their protein from solid foods (red meats, poultry, fish, etc) and still can get in huge amounts of protein. I was reading of one guy on another board who takes in 600 grams a day from only solid foods (rediculous huh?), so it is possible.

Can you just not have whey protein or is it protein shakes in general? There are other options like egg protein powders and so forth.

As much as I can't stand them, there are soy protein products out there too. Is it only whey or casein based stuff?
You can always make tuna shakes....ugh.

Beef Jerky is good and loaded with protein. You won't want to eat more than 1 oz of the stuff because of the salt, but is good for an occasional snack. You
can get 180 grams, but your diet is going to be a little borring.

Let's see if I can pull out 180 grams in one day out of the top of my head.

Breakfast
2 Eggs ------------------12g
2 Slices Swiss Cheese----16g
1/4 cup Refried Beans----8g

Snack
1/2 cup Salmon Salad----12g

Lunch
3oz Chicken Breast-------28g
1/2 cup Hummus---------15g
1/2 Backed Beans--------6g

Snack
1 oz Beef Jerky----------10g
1/4 cup Peanuts---------8g
2 Beef Hot Dogs---------12g

Dinner
3 oz London Broil--------32g
Garden Salad------------0g

Snack
1/2 cup Cottage Cheese--15g
on bed of lettuce
1 Fish Filet---------------9g

Total 183g

I am about 100% sure that protein shakes are thrown out the window. Someone reccommended taking amino acid pills. As for the eating routine, I do not have access to most of thoes foods that you listed nor have the time to make it. However, I did get some good ideas from some of the foods you listed. I will just mix n match

I'm really sorry to hear that, Eddie. It's gonna mean some major lifestyle changes, for sure. Here is a link to try if you don't already have it:

http://www.celiac.org

Don't count your chickens before they hatch, though. If you have a definite diagnosis of Celiac specifically, then the culprit is gluten. Gluten is a plant-based protein made by certain grains like some of those you mentioned. Celiac sufferers have to adhere to a gluten free diet.

Whey protein, in and of itself, shouldn't be a problem. Who told you it was? Also, egg protein, etc. Gluten, however, is added to a great many products, and may be present (as a thickener, for instance) in some protein powders. Soy protein powders a very likely to contain gluten. TVP, (textured vegetable protein, i.e. soy, is probably out, too).

Unless you have other allergies then you just have to find products that are gluten free. Labels can be inprecise, so contact manufacturers.

Again, I'm a little confused as to why all protein shakes would be out. However, don't take my word on all of this. I'm not a doctor, after all. This is just based on the info I have available to me.

All the best.
