specifically styrian pumpkin for zinc and brazil nuts for selenium. although gluten free very difficult to find that are certified gluten-free so cross contamination is possibility. a couple brazil nuts gives more than what is required daily. i am newly diagnosed so any suggestions in this would be appreciated.

For pumpkin seeds, this should meet your needs. I get them at Costco. Certified gluten-free.

AS to Brazil nuts, you could go for those still in the shell. That is, if you don't mind the challenge of cracking them open.

I'm interested in where to get certified gluten-free cashews, walnuts, pecans, almonds, and sunflower seeds. The vast majority of nuts and seeds at CostCo are not labeled gluten-free. I get the pumpkin seeds that trents mentioned and they are pretty good.

I had a reaction to the already-shelled brazil nuts from CostCo though, even though they are labeled gluten-free. Not sure what was going on there. Good idea on getting the ones that are still in the shell.

I get mine from Nuts.com.  If I copied the link correctly, this should take you to their certified gluten free selections:

Just received brazil nuts and they are absolutely delicious. Best ever and purchase will help preserve amazon rainforest and generate income for the local community. Why take a pill when 2 nuts more than takes care of selenium needs plus other nutrients.

Why take a pill

Food sourced is better.  But I have periods of anorexia so the pills guaranty that I have at least a sufficient baseline intake.  I as eat that nutrient reliably I stop supplementing. 

I buy Durham Deluxe Mixed Nuts at my local supermarket.  Apparently the Deluxe in the title indicates Brazil Nuts.

Over the last six months I've increased my iodine intake with drops of Liquid Iodine to 1625 mcg a day.  Since the US Tolerable Safe Upper Limit is 1100 mcg, for the purpose I am declaring myself Honorary Japanese.  Their Tolerable Safe Upper Limit for Iodine is 3000 mcg a day.  The results are insane.  Right eye vision returning, foot neurapathy improving, muscle tone and strength improving.  Overall, everything is getting better.  My quarterly bloods come up next week and my doctor told me she's testing for everything.  Should be interesting.

My vitamin D is 90 ng/ml from sun so I have stopped the 10,000 IU a day I have been taking for the past 10 years,  Another sign of healing from sufficient vitamins and minerals as part of my GFD diet.

Here's what I take most days:

  • B1 250 mg
  • B2 100 mg
  • B3 500 mg
  • B5 500 mg
  • DHEA 200 mg
  • Selenium 200  mcg
  • Vitamin C 2000 mg
  • Choline 500 mg
  • Iodine 1625 mcg

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
