Apologies for the delay. The following is a summary of the products
recommended for travelling celiac athletes who also have to pay
attention to doping regulations:
1. Always check your banned substances handbook from your sport
2. PR Bars: have 40-30-30 balance of protein, carb and fat
3. Call the folks at stokes http://www.stokesrx.com ....
They easily whipped up a nice batch of GF alka seltzer cold
plus, and I had it in my paws in 3 days.
4. Try pure Guaifenisen (the main ingredient in cough medications, but without
the sugar and artificial ingredients). It is a mucous thinner for which you
may need a script, but I got it on the web without a script.
5. homeopathic remedies?
6. I love the antihistamine effect from Red Apple Herbs #40, the one
with the black lid. No grogginess and no side effects. Goes to work in
about 20 minutes, but only lasts for a couple hours. And make sure
she's completely off dairy, as dairy compromises an immune system to the
point of reacting to allergens.
7. I like the gf GeniSoy soy protein bars, apple spice yogurt coated
ones. If the travel isn't over 24 hours, I bake some red potatoes and
wrap them in tin foil with some seasoning, then refrigerate and keep
them in a small cooler. I bring those taters hiking as they are a
great source of energy. Also, packets of E-Mergen-C are a good source
of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes. Just add to about a pint of
water and drink over a long period, maybe an hour or so.
8. Have you tried small cans of shoestring potatoes with pop-top lids.
or Cans of powered bean soup?
