Vitamins

I'm slowly starting to feel better, but I'm still lacking energy! I know that taking B12/Folic Acid will help... should I take a full B-complex or just those two?

And if anyone has gluten-free brand recommendations, especially for some of the liquid vitamins, that would be great. Thanks!

Jamison vitamins will indicate if they are gluten free right on the label.

gummy vites (gummy vitamin bears made by l'il critters) are gluten-free- says it right on the label! and they taste just like candy...they come in multi v and vit c/echinacea LOVE THEM! :)

Nature Made labels their products as gluten free if they are. They have a wide variety of vitamins and are easy to find.

You should definitely try an entire B-complex for energy and immune boost.

I personally think that Klaire Labs has the best vitamins/supplements, www.klairelabs.com They can be purchased at Family Pharmacy of Sarasota online at Open Original Shared Link

Here are some others:

Freeda Vitamins www.freedavitamins.com

Douglas Labs www.douglaslabs.com

Country Life www.countrylife.com

Natrol (has liquid vitamins) www.natrol.com

I use Centrum, vit. B6 and calcium lactate. I also take a digestive enzyme at each meal.

Hi,

I take a B complex liquid vitamin made by GNC. They also put right on the label if their products are gluten free or not. I recently started using it and I noticed right away an increase in my energy.

someone correct me if I am wrong..but I thought that best method of taking B12 is sublingual. My husband uses Trivita brand (mail order) and they say their product is gluten-free.

jerseyangel Proficient

It was my understanding that sublingual was the best way to absorb vit. B12. I have been thinking about trying Trivita and called the 800 # and the person I got on the phone couldn't tell me if it was gluten-free or not. She said she"didn't see any wheat ingred. on her list of ingred." but couldn't guarantee it. Did the label state that it is gluten-free or did you have better luck than I did with a rep.? Thanks.

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
