I know you all said gummy vites, which I found but his Dr. wants a vitamin with iron since he is a little anemic. I bought Curious George made by Health Science Labs. They say they are not made with Gluten but are proccesed on equiptment that may contain traces of it. I called the company and didn have much luck comunicating with the guy. He was going to pass the note on but I never got a return call. Any ideas?

Also, has anyone checked out moon sand? It looks really neat ( kind of a playdoh ish but its sand, wont dry etc. ) I also called that company and they were supposed to call me back but I never heard from then either. There are no ingredients listed on the package... Ugh I havent had much luck calling companies... Thanx for any help you all can give..

Can't your doctor give you a perscription for a vitamin with iron? I was actually questioning this myself. I noticed through alot of posts here that a lot of the kids are on an over the counter vitamin. My kids have always been given perscriptions as well as all the other young kids that have been in my life. Could it be because where I live they do not put flouride in the water? My kids vitamins have flouride in it.

What vitamin was prescribed? I actually called her today to write a script. I figure any money I can save the better! I think she was looking into what one is safe.. Thanx for your help.

Hi, they are on Poly Viamin with flouride. I actually am going to call again tomorrow to double check they are safe. I haven't checked in a while. They were one of the safe ones listed by American celiac association.

check GNC's website. They will tell you if any product they sell is gluten-free.

I actually dont take vitamins orally, just get vitamin shots, cause those are the only that don't make me sick cause of the corn and i get iron infusions at the hospital

Oh my gosh! I saw the Moon Sand commercial today too! Disney Channel I think?

I looked it up, and the company's website still says "Coming Soon". There is a space on their website for FAQs, but it's also "coming soon". Here's the site - Open Original Shared Link

I hope it's gluten-free. It looks SO neat.

      A little about me and my celiac disease

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you...

It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

But joint pain may also be caused by other medical problems such as rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, etc. Make sure you share these concerns with your physician so that he or she can initiate testing or make referrals to specialists. As someone with celiac disease it is very important that you be consistent with the gluten free diet.
