My Vitamins..

Label says:

People's Choice

Natural Vitamins

Daily Multiple with Iron

Ingredients: (besides the vitamins) Dicalcium Phosphate, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Stearic Acid, Magnesium Stearate, Paba, Hydroxyproyl Methylcellulose, Polyethylene Glycol, FD&C Yellow #5, FD&C Yellow #6, and Titanium Dioxide.

It says it has no ADDED: sugar, yeast, soy, corn, wheat, dairy, gluten, egg, fragrance, artificial flavors and preservatives.

That doesn't neccarily mean it's gluten-free though right?

AND is vitamin E safe? I saw a thread about it possibly containing wheat germ oil...I was confused and didn't understand it. Can someone explain that?

Thanks

I buy vitamins that say that and I think they are gluten free. What would be the point of them saying they don't add gluten if they weren't gluten free? Maybe the company is just trying to be careful about saying gluten-free because of CC issues. It might be the same as companies saying food is "made with gluten free ingredients". Many companies are afraid of saying gluten free.

I talked to my mom about the Vitamin E/wheat germ oil thing and she said that if Vitamin E is from wheat germ oil, it will probably say on the label. She sells vitamins (she is a chiropractor) so she reads a lot of vitamin labels. A lot of people look for wheat germ oil specifically, so the company would probably want to advertise that. I'm not saying that you can be 100% that Vitamin E is gluten free if it doesn't say from wheat germ oil on the container, but it will probably say where the vitamin E is from. I am going to ask her to ask the company she orders from next time she calls them. HTH

:huh: What brand? I couldn't find "People's Choice" anywhere (well, not anywhere - amazon and drugstore.com and google :P ) So is that the brand name, or something different? The ingredients certainly look gluten-free.

You can get E that specifically says gluten-free if you're worried about cc.

I use Nature Made. From their Vit E label -

"No Artificial Colors

No Artificial Flavors

No Preservatives

No Chemical Solvents, Yeast, Starch or Gluten.

Vitamin E softgels made to USP and Nature Made's guaranteed purity and potency standards."

" Polyethylene Glycol"? You call that natural? Good lord. You should take Twin Lab. They are made for highly sensitive and allergic people so there's mostly rice base in them. All the ones I asked them about were gluten free. I took the Daily Ones and they changed the formula and now they have citrus in them!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! :angry: I take the Allergy Multiples by them.

I have called three times to different companies of manufactured vit and got an answer within minutes.

Go shopping, write down the 1-800 # and call. It takes minutes.

Not many of us can read the looooong words that they put in vit's, but it does not take long to find out. :)

Been around for over a year and I'm still learning. :)

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      Hi, I bought Naked Nutrition Creatine. It lists itself as gluten free but is not certified. (It used to be, but they dropped it in the past year or two apparently.) I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing...

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated. So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly. I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm...

I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing test results as ppm, so I'm not sure what <0.025MCG means. Can it be converted to ppm easily? I want to confirm that it is safe to use.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
