Does Anyone Know Of A Good Well Rounded Vitamin/mineral Supplement That Is Gluten-Free?

I like Solgar vitamins myself. I mostly get individual vitamins or 1 / 2 combos, like D and calcium. I have some Pioneer brand multi Vits but am not taking those much. Read the thread linked below to see why. They have a lot of Vitamin A in them and that may not be a good thing for celiacs.

Good info... thanks for the post. I'll have to check the Members Mark, but I don't think the Vitamin A was high in those. :)

Kirkland brand by Costco!

Absolutely the cheapest, highest quality you can buy for a "regular" line of vitamins. Unless you want to spend 3-5x more for basically the same ingredients.

They have different varieties and are Gluten free.

I use Garden of Life Vitamin Code liquid.

I'm recently diagnosed and still have absorption issues and a liquid multi is easier for me.

It tastes rather nasty by itself, but I mix it with my other liquid supplements and a bit of juice and that makes it ok.

I also tested positive to casein, eggs, soy, yeast and had to change most of my supplements

From their website:

I get my vitamins from Puritan's Pride. They're very good about labeling when their products are gluten-free whether directly on the bottle or online. And they have a really great deal where you buy 2, get one free.

Actually that's a typical CYA statement and true for many products we use all the time. So I'll continue to take my Centrum Silver. I know we take chances buying a lot of things and this is just one of them...we each have to make that decision every day.

Hey Sylvia, I just had a thought. I read your post about your antibodies being higher than you had hoped. Maybe the Centrum taken daily is your culprit!? :blink::o

I have no clue. I don't know what's normal for antibody levels for someone my age who's been gluten-free for 9 months. Actually one year today!!!

I'm super sensitive to gluten. Tried Centrum Advance New Formula yesterday after pharmacist looked up msds sheet and said they should be fine, had worst case of glutening since going gluten free four months ago. They don't specify where their starches are derived from. This is in Australia.

Have tried the Swisse multi labelled "gluten free" a month ago and had a milder case of glutening, nowhere near as bad as Centrum though. Nevertheless not worth taking them for me.

Just ordered the GNC Women's to give them a go... Spending a lot on multi's so I'm hoping this one is ok :) of course I could be reacting to something else. Definitely need magnesium as I get muscle cramping/spasms fairly frequently now. I just wonder what else I might be low in, so keep searching for a multi rather than individual vitamins at the moment.

Here are some of the vitamins I take. And my nails are looking fabulous! :)

GNC Ultra Women's Active Multi vitamin

Vitafusion Gummy Vitamins - Vitamin C 250 (Target has this brand or you could buy them on-line)

Vitafusion Gummy Vitamins - Calcium 500 with vitamin D 1,000

I just wanted to add that after taking the GNC Womens vitamins for a month I got really sick. So sick that my doctor's thought I had lymphoma and I had to had a lymph node removed for a biopsy. I had to completely stop all of them and start from scratch. The GNC vitamins were the newest vitamins I started to take, but I really suspect it was the Vitafusion vitamins, but I'm not 100% sure. I was taking them for months and then all the sudden they changed the label, but I called and they told me there weren't any changes in the product, so I really trusted this company. As soon as I figured out it was the vitamins, I stopped them and started to get better.

Please be careful with any vitamin even if it says it's gluten free. I had to learn the hard way.

I recently started Kirkman Labs multi vitamin just 8 days ago. Even though I eat healthy I'm still low on some of my vitamins. So far I haven't had any reactions to them and I'm super sensitive. Plus I do keep a food diary.

I, probably like most of you, feel a huge difference when I don't take a daily multivitamin. I feel draggy, run down, no energy, etc. Its REALLY apparent if I forget to take it (which probably is because all my levels are low, but Dr didn't feel the need to run those tests other than Vitamin D)... Anyway, long story short... Centrum is a no go for gluten-free. So, I'm trying to find an equivalent supplement in gluten-free form. Anyone have suggestions for me? THANKS so much in advance!

I've been using Pioneer brand multi vitamins for myself & my son. They are reasonably priced at iHerb online. Pioneer actually has a celiac cleanse formula now too. I bought it, but havent been brave enough to try it yet.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I am honestly not sure. Initially I was purchasing my RO water via a refill station at the same store for the past several years. My employer (at the time) also has an RO water filtration system. Thus while drinking water and coffee at home or work, I was consuming RO water. I just so happened to switch to a gallon of sealed store bought distilled water...

      Oat &gluten free eczEMA MOISTURIZER

      If you’re avoiding both gluten and oats, you’re right — a lot of “eczema” or “moisturizer with oat” products use oat-based ingredients (like colloidal oatmeal) that can be questionable for people with celiac or oat sensitivity unless the oats are certified gluten-free and tolerated. For truly gluten-free and oat-free moisturizers many people with sensitiv...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I wonder what in RO water would cause major issues with your stomach? That seems strange, unless there is an issue with the system itself, like an installation issue, lack of changing the filter for a long time, etc.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Known1 · Posted

      I am honestly not sure.  Initially I was purchasing my RO water via a refill station at the same store for the past several years.  My employer (at the time) also has an RO water filtration system.  Thus while drinking water and coffee at home or work, I was consuming RO water.  I just so happened to switch to a gallon of sealed store bought distilled water at home and instantly felt better.  I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but it is true.  My initial thought was the RO water refill station must have been contaminated, possibly from some sort of cleaning agent. Later I bought completely sealed RO water from a different store.  Again, my stomach started making crazy noises and I felt off.  It took a few days to get through all of the RO water I bought.  I thought it was distilled or spring, but after reading the label a bit closer...nope it was RO water.  Again, as soon as I stopped drinking it my stomach settled and I felt SO much better. I cannot say what it is about RO water that does not agree with me, but there are threads on Reddit and elsewhere on the Internet with plenty of people reporting GI related issues from RO water.  I linked to one in my original post within this thread.  While doing more research, I have discovered that RO water filtration systems should not be used with copper plumbing.  Per Google AI Overview:  Reverse Osmosis (RO) water should not pass through or be stored in copper plumbing because the purified, low-TDS water is highly aggressive and causes corrosion, pitting, and pinhole leaks in copper pipes. RO water leaches copper, resulting in a metallic taste and potential health risks like copper poisoning. Always use polyethylene (plastic) tubing for RO systems. The more I learn about RO water, the more I plan to steer clear.  If it is well know to damage and leach copper...well I'll just leave it at that.

      If you’re avoiding both gluten and oats, you’re right — a lot of “eczema” or “moisturizer with oat” products use oat-based ingredients (like colloidal oatmeal) that can be questionable for people with celiac or oat sensitivity unless the oats are certified gluten-free and tolerated. For truly gluten-free and oat-free moisturizers many people with sensitive skin use and recommend: Vanicream Moisturizing Cream — no fragrance, dyes, lanolin, or oats CeraVe Moisturizing Cream or Lotion — gentle, oat-free, widely tolerated Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream — rich but oat-free La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+ — good for eczema-prone skin and oat-free Aveeno Sensitivity Free (not Aveeno with oatmeal) — check the label carefully Always check ingredients for things like Avena sativa / oat extract, and if you’re extremely sensitive, call the manufacturer to confirm there’s no cross-contamination with oats or gluten. Patch test any new product on a small area first. Plenty of people with eczema and gluten/oat intolerance have found these work well without triggering reactions.
