Good Gluten Free Vitamins?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a good gluten free vitamin? I just started taking "Megafood Vitamins" & they told me they do test for gluten & they are gluten free. But I'm learning just because it's says gluten free doesn't always mean it's gluten free... B)

Has anyone tried them or had any reactions to them?

Thanks!

I highly recommend Kirkman Labs. www.kirkmanlabs.com They have a number of not only gluten-free, but allergen-free supplements of different kinds. They are good to work with also.

Rainbow light brand. The entire family takes the active teen. They really help with both my teens acne--could really tell over Christmas vaca when they didn't take them.

Be careful, though, not all of their vitamins are gluten-free.

I take NatureMade, the label states gluten free and I have never had problems with them.

I take the Ultra Mega Womens from GNC and they are labeled gluten free, dairy free etc. However they are expensive, and my doctor says that they are really more vitamins than necessary for a normal person. I am looking to switch to something cheaper.

if you have Celiac disease you're not a "normal person" though are you? ;) The malabsorption issues with celiac or even gluten intolerance would suggest a higher dose multi-vitimin IMO.

I too take the GNC Women's Ultra Mega without iodine and without iron. ($18.99 for 90 tabs in the US I think is fairly reasonable. They don't have the iodine free version in Canada for some reason.) I also take calcium, magnesium, Vit D, Vit C and fish oil omega 3s. Those I usually buy what's on sale as long as it is gluten free. I got 2 HUGE bottles of calcium tablets on BOGO a couple of weeks ago. I won't need to buy calcium again until Fall I think!

Thanks everyone for all your great recommendations!

I was taking Finest Natural vitamins by Walgreen's & a Sam's Club - Member's Mark multi vitamin. I just stopped them two weeks ago & started the Megafood vitamins. I have to say my stomach feels better, but I wonder if I'm still getting gluten somewhere. I just got my IgA Ab blood work done last week & it's 61. I don't eat out at all & I'm so careful of what I'm eating. The only thing I could think of are the Walgreen vitamins even though they say gluten free. I'm just stumped! :(

If any one else has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks!

      Still testing positive after being gluten free for one year ?!!

      By Shireen32 · Posted

      Hi , since being gluten free I am still having bad stomach problems . Such as constant gas in my stomach 24/7 ,burning, constant bubbling noises coming from my stomach and gurgling sounds that never stop .Pain under the left side of my rib cage when ever I eat and just always there’s pain there  .  My symptoms have not improved at all since being gluten free.  Could this be refractory coeliac disease ?? How is that even diagnosed or confirmed  ?  I had tests recently and this is what they say :Endomysial abs (IgA) -Positive  TTG abs (IgA)U/ml : My result is : 0.9 U/ml The Range:0 - 10 U/ml What does this mean pls ??? How can I still test positive for Endomysial abs when I am gluten free and am very careful about cross contamination? Do I even have coeliac disease I’m convinced some other digestive disorder is causing these symptoms .   I also have not had a endoscopy and now the gastroenterologist calls me after one year ( I’m from the uk and have free healthcare which has been such a nightmare with all this and never help me  )  so as I am gluten free the gastroenterologist advised me to start eating gluten again to be referred for a biopsy .. Is a biopsy even worth me doing ? The only proof I have is when I was eating gluten I could never get my ferretin , vitamin d and folate levels up . And since being gluten free these have gone up a little bit  . But that doesn’t always mean coeliac as I know gluten stops absorption in even normal people  . Pls can anyone shed some light it’s much needed ! And share some advice or answer my questions above . I have no idea with this whole coeliac stuff and am very much struggling .Much Appreciated .

      Vitamin D deficiency.  Not enough Omega Threes. Another autoimmune disease like arthritis, maybe.

      @RMJ it makes sense as it’s something I’ve experienced more than once. Currently 24 weeks and baby is doing well! Will be seeking more medical advice today
