Ingredients with B vitamins

I've been gluten free over a year.  Most wheat flours have added vitamins like the various B vitamins.  Since I'm no longer using wheat in my recipes, I feel like I'm not getting enough of the B vitamins anymore.  I'm currently supplementing with a multivitamin or a B+ vitamin and I feel better when I take them.  However, I was wondering if there were ingredients or foods that are high in B vitamins that one could add to a diet or to recipes.  I am trying to get liver once a week and also trying to eat nori which is a source for B12 (although research isn't sure how bioavailable it is).  Any other suggestions appreciated.  Thank you.

meat (especially liver), seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, legumes, leafy greens, seeds.

I could not get enough iodine from nori.  I use Liquid Iodine or Nascent Iodine to get daily 500 mcg to 1500 mcg a day. RDA in US is 150 - 1150 mcg a day.  In Japan it is 150 - 3000 mcg a day.  Improves muscle tone, skin, hair nails, siow wound healing (including gut), mental acuity.

Fermented pickles contain several B vitamins, including:

  • Thiamin (B1): Contributes to healthy cardiovascular and nervous systems
  • Riboflavin (B2): Plays a role in energy production
  • Niacin (B3): Helps stabilize and lower cholesterol levels

Folic acid: Helps produce and maintain new cells, and prevent DNA changes that can lead to cancer 

Pantothenic Acid (B5) Top 10 Vitamin B5 Foods

Choline (formerly B4) liver, eggs, beef

The foods containing vitamin B12 are primarily animal meat, fish, eggs, and dairy.

The B vitamins from food have no upper limit.

Liver is one of the healthiest foods to eat notwithstanding cholesterol and fat. Liver also has higher amounts of vitamin A and copper so to avoid getting caught up in that I eat 1/2 ounce per day.

I can usually only eat it as chopped liver, but the commercial ones all have wheat added.  Wish I could, but it creeps me.  Cod Liver Oil works.

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      Hi CathiJean, Wipe those tears my friend.  Finding out that you have celiac just gave you the cheat code on how to start feeling better!  It may feel like a loss right now, but honestly within 6 months you will start feeling better.  Within a year you will look back and wonder how in the world did I survive feeling like that for what feels like a lifetime?  You mentioned 15 years, that's about how long I have been really ill as well.  I had told every doctor I saw that I kept getting sick, infections, hair loss, joint pain, etc. and nobody would listen to me until I turned 45.  I went in for a colonoscopy and the doc says how often do you have bowel movements and I said usually between 10-15 times a day.  Suddenly I had someone actually listen to me and the testing began.  What I can tell you is use this forum, talk to peers, read everything you can about how to gluten-free your kitchen, encourage your family to participate in your journey (trust me they love you enough to make the effort), how to order food in restaurants, and how to avoid cross contamination.  Accept that you will make mistakes and allow yourself grace as you implement your new normal and have a clear understanding that going gluten free will begin healing your body in ways that you will not even begin to understand until you actually do it.  So, have faith that the nutrient deficiencies that you are probably experiencing right now can be corrected and you are on a bright path to feeling SO much better.  Think about how incredible your mom journey is about to become as you begin to feel better!!  Your kids are going to be amazed at your energy levels, ability to play and go do stuff...you are leveling up knowing that you have Celiac.  Knowing gives you power my friend, harness it and have gratitude that it was discovered...even if the docs missed it - you know now and keep moving forward.  You got this!!

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      If you have been eating the gluten equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for say, 4 weeks, I think a repeat blood test would be valid.

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      it did include Total Immunoglobin A which was 135, and said to be in normal range. when i did the blood test in January I would say I was on a "light' gluten diet, but def not gluten free.  I didn't have any clue about the celiac thing then.  Since then I have been eating a tonne of gluten for the purpose of the endoscopy....so I'm debating just getting my blood test redone right away to see if it has changed so I'm not waiting another month...

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      Welcome to the forum, @englishbunny! Did your celiac panel include a test for "Total IGA"? That is a test for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, other IGA test resultls will likely be falsely low. Were you by any chance already practicing a reduced gluten free diet when the blood draw was done?

      I'm upset & confused and really need help finding a new gastro who specializes in celiac in California.  Also will welcome any insights on my results. I tested with an isolated positive for deamidated IGA a few months ago (it was 124.3, all other values on celiac panel <1.0), I also have low ferritin and Hashimotos. Mild gastro symptoms which don't seem to get significantly worse with gluten but I can't really tell... my main issues being extreme fatigue and joint pain. The celiac panel was done by my endocrinologist to try and get to the bottom of my fatigue and I was shocked to have a positive result. Just got negative biposy result from endoscopy. Doctor only took two biopsies from small intestine (from an area that appeared red), and both are normal. Problem is his Physician's Assistant can't give me an answer whether I have celiac or not, or what possible reason I might have for having positive antibodies if I don't have it. She wants me to retest bloods in a month and says in the meantime to either "eat gluten or not, it's up to you, but your bloodwork won't be accurate if you don't" I asked if it could be I have early stage celiac so the damage is patchy and missed by only having two samples taken, and she said doctor would've seen damaged areas when performing endoscopy (?) and that it's a good sign if my whole intestine isn't damaged all over, so even if there is spotty damage I am fine.  This doesn't exactly seem satisfactory, and seems to be contrary to so much of the reading and research I have done. I haven't seen the doctor except at my endoscopy, and he was pretty arrogant and didn't take much time to talk. I can't see him or even talk to him for another month. I'm really confused about what I should do. I don't want to just "wait and see" if I have celiac and do real damage in the meantime. Because I know celiac is more that just 'not eating bread' and if I am going to make such a huge lifestyle adjustment I need an actual diagnosis. So in summary I want to find another doctor in CA, preferably Los Angeles but I don't care at this stage if they can do telehealth! I just need some real answers from someone who doesn't talk in riddles. So recommendations would be highly welcomed. I have Blue Shield CA insurance, loads of gastros in LA don’t take insurance at all 😣
