Amazing Lectures At The Gluten Summit

At least with vit B12, it is a digestion issue, as we age, and apparently with interstinal/stomache/gallbladder issues, we don't break it out of food appropriately.

but with the supplement, on an empty stomach, our intestines can absorb tiny amounts of if.  Hence the large dose, 1000 mcg or more, for the 3 or so mcg absorbed

You can also take sublingual supplements or have shots, which would bypass the gut and solve the absorption problem.

This study shows that both sublingual and oral supplementation are effective: Open Original Shared Link

But I think if you are talking about someone just diagnosed with full blown Celiac, taking supplements orally will not be effective, if they are not absorbing well or at all.

2 problems with shots long term= they are usually cyanocabolamin (sp) rather than the methyl- variety. and they are doctor driven, ie, need a script for them, and docs can be stingy with it.  But short term, emergent, yup.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
