Had horrible pain in mornings last 10-11 days, inch left of belly button. Think it might possibly be my late night protein bar snack, changed brands but gonna take tonight off see if makes a difference. Thinking maybe just so pasty/fiber like that hard to digest. Anyone notice pain like this from reg. protein bar eating? |

Mannitol in the protein bar screws my stomach up.

By protein bar, you mean you sucked a long fat cock and swallowed, right?

Saw on ID the other day that California had a string of cyanide poisonings in protein bars. I guess they havent caught the fucker doing this. You're not from California are you? Huntington Beach area IIRC...I'd have to get on their website. Same thing happened years ago - Some weirdo poisoned excedrin tabs. http://www.nytimes.com/1986/06/18/us/cyanide-death-halts-the-sale-of-excedrin-capsules.html |

Just switched back to CLIF builders, don't see Mannitol on the ingredients, but is it a safe bet some of the weird sugars/alcohols etc could be doing it to me and not drinking enough water at night? IE, they kinda do sit in the intestines too long if not enough water intake before bed? I drink tons of water more than most people but maybe not enough at night IDK. I only do Chex/Gluton free in morning, so not sure if a gluten thing possibly I worry about like all cheaper protein bars being SOY, but still seems to be best later night snack. Maybe need to go back to apple and peanut butter but they are damn convenient. So likelihood my stomach issues could be the bars is high? |

not constipation, thanks I'm a regular once a dayer, sometimes two, Usually an hour after waking up, after I ate cereal and had coffee though I am needing too as soon as I wake to help get rid of discomfort. 1st one dark today, second one a bit later greenish. Now that we have talked about my poop.................... I knot it's OG, but I am concerned been so long, and have other medical issues to worry about. I'll prob go to Dr. tomorrow, but the SAT guy is not that impressive. |

So if you start eating 1-2 protein bars a day, it's very possible the sugar alcohol and perhaps just hard blobby consistency of dryness is hard to digest, can give stomach pain then? Who else had stomach pain from protein bars? Before I really have to worry ulcer or other crap, would like to figure out likelihood it could be this. |

I don't see Sugar Alcohol listed on these CLIFF bars (ok just found another part of rapper it says they do not contain it), but think they may have been on the ones I was taking last week or so Triple threat Energy bars or something, can't remember but common brand I tried because on sale. I've seen other bars I had problems with say Contains Sugar Alchohol so they have to on the label if they do correct? Or can it be in all the names of other crap? |

Cut out bars all together if you can but yes the sugar alchohol (malitol) is a usual culprit. Also the binders can give you issues. Do you have problems from whey protein shakes?

Dan, I eat on average 1 or 2 Cliff bars daily. I've never had a problem with stomach ache or constipation eating them. I don't think Cliff bars are all that great for you, but they sure fill me up around lunch time. They've solely responsible for keeping me from buying lunch on most days. I love those things - Crunch Peanut Butter ftw - Followed by Chocolate Chip Coconut! |

Mihow - The CLIF brand is as natural as they come Yet are still taxed by the "junk food tax" in my state. How fucking ridiculous.
Fucking organic clif bars are junk food taxed, yet one can buy velveta shells / cheese and pay no sales tax. Ridiulous fucking law makers ! |

never really done protein shakes, Have eliminated about 80% of gluten from diet, chex only cereal, buy no bread, only bread is Subway or or burger like 2-3 times per week. I'm going to think that the other bars had the sugar alcs that is why switched brands back to Cliff, what I usually buy. Now I think I had two cliffs yesterday and still horrible pain this morning, feel crappy all day, haven't even had lunch yet. I'll do apple tonight instead, then go back to cliffs see if problem gets better be4 freaking out. I mean it has been really bad pain. I used to have pains same spot really bad in middle school I remember, having to force myself to burp for like 20 minutes on toilet often as kid....so am a bit worried of other stomach issues. They told me I had ulcer, IBS, and acid reflux like at 18. Then ulcer test for anti-body negative. borderline low blood sugar too. BUT, turns out I have Lupus and other AI so can all be attributed to that as well. I already take 2 Zantacs 75 mg per day, but one of my Drs. had me atleast stop the Nevoxl/Prilosec I was briefly one, worried I didn't have enough acid to break down food etc. Just want to make sure I dont have ulcer or something more serious going on. Thanks Also, read a bit on Leaky Gut, any experts on that? |
