Hi Daphne,

I have deficiencies as well, but also issues digesting vitamins. I’ve had the best luck with Dr. Axe. You can get them online. I also get my bone broth there. Ideally, the best source of nutrients is from a balanced diet from whole foods.  I have malabsorption so I’m using the bone broth for healing my GI. Organic super greens powder is another good source of nutrients. 

Hope that helps.

Certified to be under 20 ppm or 5ppms? Do you know does it say on the website ? I can't handle any more the 5 ppms right now I'm to sick

The certifying organization certifies to 10ppm.  That doesn’t mean all the vitamins have 10ppm, it means that is the maximum amount they might have.  They might also have 0ppm but the analytical methods can’t verify that. However, it is not the ppm but the total amount of trace gluten ingested that causes problems for us super sensitives. Vitamin pills are pretty small compared to a serving of a food, so even if a pill contained 10ppm of gluten that would be a tiny amount. It would be micrograms, not milligrams.

Naturemade has a pretty good gluten-free vitamin D pill.

Consider just taking the vitamins you know you are deficient in (B-12 and vitamin D).  That way you can have fewer ingredients to worry about.  I suggest that the B-12 be sublingual (dissolves under the tongue).  Be sure it is methylated too.  

Ask your pharmacist for help in selecting a gluten free version or the right D or B-12.  In the meantime, take in a few minutes of sunshine with a walk!  ?

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
