What is a Gluten Free diet?
A gluten-free diet excludes all foods containing gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, and their derivatives. It's essential for people with celiac disease, gluten intolerance, or wheat allergy, as consuming gluten can trigger inflammation and digestive issues. Common gluten-containing foods include bread, pasta, cereals, and baked goods, though many gluten-free alternatives now exist using rice, corn, or almond flour. Beyond medical necessity, some people choose a gluten-free lifestyle for perceived health benefits, though experts emphasize the importance of maintaining a balanced diet rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals when eliminating gluten-containing grains.

Not the best taste, but it’s good enough to enjoy. Plus it’s dairy free- gluten free which makes me a happy person.
Expensive, good Ingredients, Taste Iffy
I first tried this Vanilla flavored Owyn drink. While I greatly appreciate the ingredients for my current diet, I also expected the taste to be a bit sweeter, especially for the higher price point. I have since tried Chocolate & “Cookies + Creamless” flavors of Owyn, but even adding organic stevia to the latter flavor did not cancel out the seeming underlying bitterness of the drink. I might try the Vanilla flavor again though!

Taste really good, no issues
These taste like they should be horrible for you but actually are really low calorie and sugar. They say they are low fodmap and did some research and even the new ones are, but they didn't want to pay for certification anymore. Been really sick lately and this is the only go to drink I can use for sustaining me without a huge issue of IBS flare ups.

My saving grace
I suffer from Viceral Hypersensitivity and this is my go to for protein/calories. It does have an odd playdoh type taste. But I have learned to like it.
