Gluten Free Vitamins

Brands? I know that Nature-made makes gluten free ones - but not ALL of them are. I looked at 20 labels last night by them and found only 4 that came right out and said "gluten free" on them.

Any others?

I'm currenlty taking a product that claims to be gluten free (Green's First), but I've had the D after taking it...I stopped it when going gluten free b/c I'm assuming that if it gives me D that it's not really gluten free. It is a "whole food" greens drink that has a lot of goodies in it.

I also need an iron supplement - preferrable liquid that wouldnt taste too horrible.

and a sublingual Bcomplex.

Vitamin C is okay b/c the naturemade on is gluten free....

ANYONE...help?

I take a multi by Open Original Shared Link, that is guaranteed to be hypoallergenic. It is called 'Super New Thera, hypoallergenic capsules'. It says right on the label that they are casein and gluten free. But in smaller print it says that it does not contain casein, gluten, soy, wheat, corn, milk, sucrose, artificial flavor, flavorings, preservatives or yeast.

I know that they also don't contain salicylates, because I asked. If I can take those, anybody can. :ph34r:

I've been taking All-One Rice Base Powdered Multi-Vitamin for 7 years. I spoke with the company prior to purchasing it to be sure that it really was a gluten - dairy free product. I can't speak to the other mixes that they sell -- but I've not had any problems with the Rice Base product. Of course, if you are also dairy free, you may have to supplement the calcium as there is not enough in a single dose. All-One also has a powdered calcium-magnesium product, which I haven't tried yet.

I mix the Rice Base recommended dose with a half cup of Almond Breeze vanilla almond milk. I don't like the taste of vitamins so I mix it with the smaller quantity of liquid and drink it fast. I can take it on an empty stomach and it doesn't make me sick. Other multi-vitamins I've tried always caused some kind of unpleasant reaction.

Their products are very expensive. I purchase mine through a local food co-op for substantially less than the local retailer.

Here's the All-One website for more information: Open Original Shared Link

Take care,

I take GNC!!! Regular, at the local mall, no big deal, no shipping, and they are gluten free (says all of this clearly on the label), "No Artificial Color, No Artificial Flavors, No Preservatives, Sodium Free, No Wheat, No Gluten, No Dairy, Yeast Free" is exactly what it reads. Lame Advertisement I take the prenatal, since I hope to be pregnant soon. Love them. I also take their sublingual B12 (I have pernicious anemia), also gluten-free, also cheap.

Source Naturals list gluten-free for many of their products, as well as a whole bunch of other things they DON'T contain.

GNC???? REALLY!!!!??????

WOW, thanks. There's one at my mall!!!!

I found another company "Nature's Bounty", they're sending me a list, but they say that most of their items are gluten free and that they clearly label either way. I can get them at CVS.

THANKS!!!

Walgreens is gluten-free (at least I know their women's multi is and I'm 99.9% sure all their other ones are, too, but as usual, you should check just to be sure).

Yeah, check them out, and you can return anything within 30 days if you don't like it. So if they give you an upset stomach or something, then just take them back. Some people have a hard time with vitamins while their gut is healing. I really like how "local" they are. I don't have to go out of town! Plus, I know that they are backed by a HUGE company. Hope that helps, and you find some that you like!

Really? How did you convince them to send you a list? I asked for a list when I called them this morning about the absorbable calcium plus D and they said the there is no list available and they can only look up items by the item number on the bottle. By the way, they said that supplement is gluten free but it doesn't say anything on the bottle.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
