I take the hypoallergenic multi vitamins from Open Original Shared Link. If you aren't sure you can tolerate them, then order their trial size before you get the big containers. That way you can make sure you do well with them, before spending a lot of money.

I take Yummi Bears Multi-Vitamins. They are the only vitamin I have found that doesn't make me nauseas. They are free of yeast, wheat, milk, egg, soy, and gluten. They are expensive, but for me they're worth it.

My naturalpathic doctor suggested me to take IntorMax which is organic and glutten free. I get it from her so I am not sure where else to get it from. But I think it does wonders. When I first went to her I was so low on several nutrient and enziyms (sp?) that is what she wanted me on if it was ok with me. At my 4 month check all my vitamins and what not were all in the normal range. It has 415 things in it, it's a liquid and not bad tasting either, peach flavor.

That sounds really nice. But only if you aren't intolerant to salicylates, it would make me very ill. I am just throwing that out as a precaution, not to say that this isn't a great vitamin. I would love a liquid vitamin, as I don't do well taking pills. So, unless you can't tolerate herbs and juices, this one sounds like a good choice.

Hi Kathleen,

I have always had a very hard time taking vitamins. They all make me sick to my stomach - I think it was the B but what's a multi without the B vitamins? After much research, I decided to try Rainbow Light Women's One Multivitamin. It says right on the front label "gentle on the stomach" and it is!! It is gluten free and I only need to take one so I really like that part. I take it with my lunch which is the only meal that can be called a meal for me every day. The vitamin also contains the digestive enzymes protease, amylase, lipase and cellulase which I think helps my lunch digest and that's good too.

You can get them online from Lame Advertisement.com for about $12.00 (?) for a 90 day supply. Very good price for a quality multi-vitamin. And I can tell that I am taking a vitamin!! That's a first for me.

Good Luck and let us know what you do finally decide on and how it works for you.

I take the Multi-Vitamins (Nature's Resource?) from Costco. The one I have now is the Plus 50 (years old!) and has no iron. Iron constipates me.

I also take Vitamin Shoppe Multi's. Many of Vitamin Shoppe products (their own brand) say free from all kinds of things like yeast, gluten, wheat, dairy, soy, starch etc.

I haven't had a CC problem with eith of those brands.

\Franceen, if you look at what is listed on VS brand as free of, gluten is NOT THERE. My anibodies just got elevated after I switched to several VS supplements. Will change and see whether they were the source of trouble.

I found Nature Made For Her with calcium & iron at BJ's wholesale club. 220 tablets for $14.99 and it says gluten free right on the label! I take them before bed so they don't bother my stomach.

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Help me out here. Lauren Dam gluten-free beer from Spain is listed as gluten free. Yet its made from Barley Malt. I thought barley and any form had gluten. Anybody have any more information about it?

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
