Perhaps it would be a good idea to ask your doctor to do a full vitamin blood panel so you can have an idea of where you are especially low. I'm not sure if you are a male or female, if female, you may need some added iron. Although, I know a couple of male Celiacs who were also low in iron, so I guess I shouldn't generalize. :rolleyes:

I'm sure it would be just fine to take them. Most of us need vitamin supplements. It's also a good idea to see if you need an extra boost that a mulivitamin may not have. Things like iron, and vitamin B12 are two that sometimes need more than what you can get in a multivitamin. I take both of those along with a multi vitamin. But you really need to get them tested first.

Hope you get it all sorted out soon, it's not fun feeling tired all the time.

I think that taking them is a good idea. I don't think you have to worry about the Centrum giving you too much of any one vitamin or mineral. It's a basic, balanced formula based on the MDR. I agree with Shirley's advice when it comes to supplimenting specific vitamins in larger amounts. For that, you may want to get blood testing to see if you are actually deficient in anything.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      suggest gluten free food

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
