Welcome to the forum, @Sandi20!

By "specifically designed for celiac" do you mean gluten free or something more?

Something more. Not just gluten free, more encapsulating the nutrients celiacs need more of.

You can always just double up or triple up on whatever gluten free chewable multivitamin product you may already be using. That should cover the bases. Celiacs need the same vitamins and minerals as non celiacs, just in higher doses to compensate for less efficient absorption. Are you wanting to boost any particular vitamins or minerals? I seriously doubt you will find a vitamin product specifically designed for celiac kids. There just isn't a big enough market for such a product to provide the incentive for a company to invest in such a product line.

Thank you.  Just wanted to see if there was anything out there. Not in need of any specific vitamins or mineral. Trying to cover all my bases. 🙂.  

 By the way, what is your picture from or what does it represent? Are you an Aquarius?

Inovera offers a supplement called Forvia that they claim is formulated for better absorption for those with GI issues including Celiacs Disease. 
 

I would love to hear if anyone has tried it and thinks it might be good.

I haven't heard of them before, but a significant portion of dietary supplements are produced by a handful of large contract manufacturers. These companies have the facilities, expertise, and certifications to produce supplements at scale, making them attractive partners for brands that don’t have their own manufacturing capabilities. I doubt Forvia manufactures them directly, so it is hard to know if they are just doing clever marketing to a certain malabsorption crowd, or they actually have unique product.

Thank you for your feed back and knowledge.  Scott do you know the names of the BIG manufactures who produce most supplements?  Love to research them all and decide on their principles and manufacturing certifications who I want to spend my dollars with if they provide other non private label supplements that are good.

Some of the largest contract manufacturers in the U.S. include companies like NutraScience Labs, Capsugel (part of Lonza), and Thorne Research. These companies produce supplements for a wide range of brands, from small startups to well-known names.

      New diagnosis for 3 year old. Help!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      To me it seems like a slam dunk diagnosis, and the actual confirmation should be recovery on a gluten-free diet. If her symptoms improve on the diet, it would be final confirmation that she has celiac disease--and likely DH as well.

      Thank you for all your help! We agreed with the pediatrician that if further testing is necessary we will reintroduce. Given all the evidence I would never put her out for an endoscopy even if recommended by the GI.  So today I'm purging the kitchen and cleaning.

      The blistery rash is almost certainly dermatitis herpetiformis, a classic indicator of celaic disease and for which celiac disease is the only known cause. There really isn't much doubt that she has celiac disease given all the evidence so far.

      Thank you! Hers were much higher than 10x plus positive ema. Plus anemia, rash, low vitamin d. The GI appointment isn't till middle of April but the pediatrician said to go ahead and stop gluten as there is no question. We went ahead and she hasn't had gluten for about 36 hours. This morning her rash wasn't blistery for the first morning since it started.

      NEW - 7 year old daughter diagnosed but 'not officially' - negligence from NHS

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is shocking that you were apparently not informed about this positive celiac disease test. In the Europe the protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children!
