Glucosamine And Vitamins

I am still waiting for my blood test results but was wondering if  Glucosamine and vitamins and hemp protein  could effect the results.

Not to my knowledge but maybe someone else has some other thoughts.

Blood tests for celiac? I don't see how. Not eating gluten would effect them.

Could taking vitamins affect any nutrient testing if it was a full blood count? As in, cover up a deficiency? For what it's worth I wouldn't imagine that they would affect the actual coeliac tests.

You wouldn't have a deficiency if the vitamin pill  was being absorbed.  So, in  a way, it would cover up a deficiency.  That is how it would work for anyone - Celiac or not.  For example, If I take multi-vitamins and my iron, D, etc are good, I would probably keep taking the vitamin because things are good.  And I want them to stay good.  With Celiac, if you are taking the vitamins and you are still low - that is a good indicator to the doctor that something is going on. A smart doc would then want to test for things like Celiac, that could explain why you are still deficient despite eating vitamin pills, fortified cereal, etc.   I wouldn't stop taking the vitamins just to see how low you can go and how tired you can feel.

 

 No matter how badly damaged your intestines are, there are still little parts that can absorb the vitamins.  You would want to make sure you have the iron, D, etc available for that small part to "eat".

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?
    • Francis M
      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
