I’ve just found out that gluten and I are no longer friends. As I’m going through my cupboards getting rid of stuff, I looked at my FINiBARs and it appears they have gluten. However, there are lots of other products out there that have wheat dextrin that are gluten free.
Does anyone know is this a case of it most likely doesn’t have any gluten, but Biotest doesn’t want to go through the hassle of declaring it gluten free? Or is this a definitely has gluten, time to give away the 3 unopened boxes you have kinda thing?
As a former grad student of Loren Cordain, I’ve been a paleo convert long before most of you even heard of the word paleo. With that said, i’ve never been able to completely give up the occasional wheat binge, it’s just too darn tasty. But if you must know, my Gliadin IgA count is through the roof, so the prudent thing to do is to become a little more militant on my anti gluten stance.
i meant nothing by it, i’m just not a fan of ppl that learn they have an intolerance but really only have it until they want that beer with there buddies.
i’m not sure if they just use the dextrin and just put the wheat warning on there for simplicity, but if its really important i’d go with the allergy warning until someone from Biotest tells you different.

thats kind of an A hole response to a pretty legit question IMO
I’m also eating pretty much a gluten free diet because my GF who I live with cant handle gluten so when we make our meals they are all gluten free… but yeah I dont think FINiBARs are gluten free?
No worries boldar, there are definitely a lot of dilholes out there in the paleo movement. I do respectfully disagree with Loren on a few points, and one of them is whether or not high volume, high intensity training changes some of the rules when it comes to the glycemic index, and clearly beer is exempt for medicinal reasons. But all the theory went out the door when I saw my Gliadin IgA count. I was hoping one of the mods would chime in and give me the official word…
