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.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
