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.

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
