I am wondering if I am reacting to probiotics? I have tried two recently that are supposed to be gluten-free.  As you know, I have been having very bad reactions the last week or two and I just restarted taking probiotics as well. Do you have any thoughts on that? Please let me know what you think. Are there some safe foods with probiotic in them besides dairy? Is there a fool proof way to take probiotics? What do you all take and where do you get it?

There was a study done recently that showed a bunch of probiotics labeled "gluten free" aren't actually.

I drink Kombucha tea, which is both delicious and full of probiotics, with no issue. It is gluten free AND dairy free.

You can always choose a certified gluten-free probiotic.

Kimchi is another food that is gluten and dairy free and has probiotics. There is also sauerkraut. Or miso soup.

I have used a probiotic that claims to be gluten-free. Please suggest one and where to get it. Thanks for the food suggestions. Not sure what they all are and where to get them. But I'll look it up.

I have used Bio-K which is certified gluten-free and  long before my celiac disease diagnosis.  Prio to my dx, I used it after a course of antibiotics per my doctor.   It comes in milk, rice or a soy base.  It does need refrigeration and it is not cheap.   I bought some when I was glutened badly this past July.  

Country life also has certified gluten-free vitamins, enzymes and probiotics.  I took their enzymes too after my July glutening.  Everything hurt to digest!  The enzymes helped (at the very least they provide me with mental comfort!).

I just ordered one on Amazon.com called Daily Pro Blend 12B from a company called Open Doors Nutrition which is totally vegetarian and has no gluten or soy or dairy.   I will get it tomorrow - I had some probiotics that I ordered several months ago before I realized I had this celiac  and soy problem. I don't remember what was in them and they didn't agree with me so I tossed them.  If these don't agree with me, I'll get my money back from Amazon so is isn't a waste.

Update:  I've been taking these probiotics for the past few days, and am so happy with them.  I feel so much better and have had no negative effect from them at all.  I am so sensitive to soy and gluten and these really agree with me.

How do you know they are returnable on Amizon?

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
