Spectracell's Micronutrient Testing For Nutritional Deficiencies

I was recently diagnosed in November 2011 with Celiac disease. I think I have had it for several years prior to diagnosis and have a lot of symptoms that could be vitamin deficiency related. I am having problems with my Doctor ordering vitamin/mineral tests. Does anyone have any input on SpectraCell's MicroNutrient Testing for Nutritional Deficiencies?

Have you googled them with the word " scam"? It appears they do non- standard tests. You would do better convincing your doc or getting a new doc. Maybe if you explained to the doc that Celiac disease causes you not to be able to digest food and vitamins, many people need to supplement. Tho as you are healing, you should be able to use the vitamins in the food or supplements you are taking.

      glutenfreedrugs.com

      By JoeBlow · Posted

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By Beverage · Posted

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      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!
