GLUTEN FREE VITAMINS


SLG

Recommended Posts

I was wondering what gluten-free vitamin I you guys would recommend for my 9 year old. I currently give him lil critters gummy vitamins but suddenly he claims he doesn't like them. He doesn't mind swallowing pills however I am not sure which gluten-free multi-vitamin would be best? My concern is that most vitamin capsules are huge and I am not sure if he would be able to swallow them. Please help. Thank you!

Liquid Sublingual so no pills, you just measure out and add it to beverage of choice. I use the Stress & Energy and Neurological support 1 tbsp each 3 times a day. Perhaps half that for kids. OR get the childrens multi. You can find them on Luckyvitamin.com and amazon. I get them at the cheapest and watch both sources. Liquid forms are much easier absorbed also.

Does he need vitamins?  Has his doctor run a vitamin and mineral panel?  Mine did.   I take no vitamins.  None.  Except for the first few months, I took an iron supplement after my Celiac Disease diagnosis.  My anemia resolved within months.  It was either that or some blood transfusions which I declined.    I do make sure to eat a healthy diet as does my family who also does not take vitamins.

I buy Nature's Way Alive! chewables, but I actually find it makes my older celiac daughter irritable, the other one has no side effects.  The I have looked high and low for gluten-free allergy friendly vitamins. I can't take anything other than sublingual because it stresses my liver out more. Be careful of that. The longer you have been undiagnosed the more it's going to stress out your body. I was also severely anemic--and the only way I got my iron back up was through red meat.

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
