I know there is a lot of discussion on safe supplements now but I am running out of vitamin D and also calcium and was considering changing brands

to help with my continuing problems. I have osteopenia and low vitamin d so I am not able to get the amount that I need through food only. Any

suggestions? Thanks!

Hi Renaye,

 

I've had a lot of luck with Kirkman Labs for multi vitamins and Calcium and I am very sensitive. They have no gluten in their facility.

 

Also, you can ask your doctor to order a 50,000 vitamin D capsule that you take once a month. It has helped me a lot and my vitamin D levels are normal. I added the link of the brand that I take and it is gluten free. :)

Five years ago I did have osteopenia, but now my last bone density scan was normal. I'm only 44 years old, but thankfully the gluten free diet and supplements have helped me so much.. I hope this helps!

Shopko Naturals. Shopko is a discount department store here in the midwest. Last time I checked they didn't sell vitamins and supplements online but I just checked again and now they do! I don't see the grape seed extract there, but lots of other stuff. Here's the link: Open Original Shared Link

 

There are other brands here but the Shopko Naturals have no gluten, soy, corn, yeast, sugar, dairy, preservatives, artificial color or flavor. And they are very inexpensive! I don't have to buy online because there is a Shopko about half a mile from my house. They often have a buy one/get one sale so I stock up.

 

And I have never gotten sick from them so I'm sure they are one of those companies whose gluten-free claims are valid.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?
