My husband was diagnosed with celiac last week. We have been trying so hard to eliminate all gluten but this is a learning process. I've learned that some of the multivitamens are not gluten-free. Could someone please help us? He is so tired and fatigued. We can't see his GI doctor until August so we need to find something safe to take. I'm also afraid he's anemic.

Thank you for any help!

Centrum says that their mulitvit (the regular one) is gluten-free. I think they may have said all of their vits are gluten-free, but I don't remember off the top of my head, only for the regular multi since I take that one. ;-)

Nature Made Vitamins and Minerals state it clearly on the label if they are gluten free. Their multivitamin is gluten-free

Pioneer has a gluten-free chewable vitamin. You may want to take chewable because your body absorbs the vitamins/minerals better. good luck. Kim.

Nature Made has a "Plus Energy" Multi Vitamin that will help your husband. It has ginsing, not caffiene. I was always severly anemic and therefore very tired. I live on the Nature Made Multi Plus energy vitamins. It really gives me an added boost and I do not feel so exhausted all day.

I teake Custom Essentials- an affordable customized nutritional supplement. They test your metabolic function and then determine what you need in a multivitamin. The vitamins are also made of pharmaceutical grade ingredients so it is better absorbed in your system. You can contact my supplier, Kate at vitamingirl1@verizon.net or contact me and I'll give you her number. I am sure she'd be happy to answer any questions you may have. Hope this helps! -Michelle

      Eating gluten before blood test

      By trents · Posted

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is incredibly common and frustrating for many in the celiac and gluten-sensitive community, and it's especially challenging with the added layer of healthcare disparities for people of African descent. A negative endoscopy and blood panel, while the gold standard, are not infallible and can miss cases, particularly if you weren't consuming a significant amount of gluten leading up to the tests (the "gluten challenge"). Your dramatic improvement on a gluten-free diet is the most critical piece of evidence here—your body is giving you the answer the tests could not. The symptoms you're describing now, especially the dyshidrotic eczema and blister bumps, are huge red flags for a gluten-related disorder, and your GP dismissing the possibility of dermatitis herpetiformis without a biopsy is a significant oversight. Requesting a new dermatologist and specifically asking for a skin biopsy next to an active lesion (not on it) is the absolute best next step. In the meantime, documenting your symptoms with photos and a food/symptom diary will build a powerful case for yourself. While the financial burden of a gluten-free diet is very real, your health is the priority; perhaps focusing on naturally gluten-free whole foods like rice, beans, and vegetables, rather than expensive processed substitutes, could be a more sustainable path forward until you can get a definitive opinion.
