I'm not familiar with this products.  I hope it's no too expensive.  I hate it when a generic products is marketed with a fancy name for profit to the current "issue of the day".  But, again, I'm not familiar with it.

 

Generally, I think a full multi vitamin would helpful, with a healthy dose of yogurt daily, is the way to go. ;)

The positive about these is that they have tailored them to include the stuff that is important to our needs and does so all in one pill.  You could do the same with individual vitamins but that would cost a lot more and you end up taking too many supplements.  They have incorrect information regarding health risks, though.

We are not 40 times more likely to get intestinal cancer than the general population.  Those figures are for those who go undiagnosed and are eating gluten or are not strict with their diets.  Once you follow the gluten-free diet for 5 years, our risk factors go back to those of the general population but I would argue less likely than the general population because compliant Celiacs tend to eat much healthier and have eliminated the foods that cause our gut grief.  Inflammation is knocked back down and inflammation is the root cause of many cancers.

 

I am looking for a multi-vitamin to take because individual supplements get expensive and annoying to take.  I have to look at the dosage on these.  Thanks for posting!

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
