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.

Lori

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.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
