Hi,

Has anyone here try pure encapsulations vitamins? They say they are gluten free but took a B12 and felt like I had been glutenned?  Felt like there was a fire in me.

i stopped taking pure encapsulations vitamins besides their zinc the only b12 i have had luck with was the Jarrows lozenge b12 I would reccomend a lozenge over a b12 capsule anyway its much more effective especially with our guts cheers friend hope you feel better soon

Thank you.  Just curious did you also get a reaction from pure encapsulations? Did you feel sick? They say they are gluten free.  I don't understand.  This whole celiac issue is so consuming. I am so tired of it.

What is the difference with the one you now take?

not much of a difference other than its a lozenge that dissolves under the tongue the pure encapsulations products i've bought from amazon from third party sellers have made me feel sick but ones i've ordered directly from them i havent had a problem the only thing i take from them now is zinc just because i havent gotten a new one yet it would be good to contact the company and ask them about their gluten cross contamination prevention measures

Thanks I got mine from Amazon.  I wonder if is fake then. I have called so many companies in the past 2 years. They are often have not clue about gluten.  If they say is gluten free it might still not be. Just my experience.  The only way to know is to see if it makes you sick. The only valuable information I have learned have been here on the internet forums from other celiacs.

I looked up the ingredients. The Pure Encapsulation b12 capsules contain

Hypoallergenic plant fiber (microcrystalline cellulose), Methylcobalamin and Vegetarian capsule (hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose).

Glad is not just me. Let me know how it goes. I have wasted so much money on vitamins.  Thanks for the reply. Any brands you recommend? For b12?

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.

      Aldi Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.
