I need a suppliment. Doc suggested Brewers Yeast, I checked it is not an option for celiacs. He is reluctant to give injections. I check food sources and because of other dietary limitation that won't be enough. Can we take pills? I don't do well with pills. Are ther capsules?

I take B6 2 times a day. My urologist put me on it to help me kidneys. I just take the Sun Valley brand or whatever it is at Walmart. They are tiny pills. They have a little taste to them, but if you swallow them quick, you can't even taste it.

If you have a hard time taking pills you can put them in applesauce then take them. You hardly know they are in there. You can crush them first if you like but that will change the taste of the applesauce. Most of the time I put mine in whole. Pudding will also work. Something that you don't chew before you swallow. Good Luck.

Liquid vitmins are another option, and bonus is your body will assimilate them better and you will actually absorb all the vitmins before they have to take the time to "break down" in your digestive tract. So if you are taking them for theraputic reasons that might be the way to go. Some vitamins don't break down at all and then it's a waste of time and $$

good luck B)

Nutritional yeast (slightly different than brewer's yeast) might be an option for you. Red Star is a popular brand.

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.

      Will definitely keep you posted. We live in Japan and will fly to Australia for the endoscopy end of April so until then, for the next ten weeks, we will just start adding gluten daily. 2 slices of white bread a day is what the guidelines seem to say.    But I welcome advice from members here who have done successful gluten challenges. I know they are not always successful.    I have also read I should monitor his growth. Is that really a concern for 10 weeks of gluten consumption? He is growing and has always followed his curve but he’s no basketball player at 20-25th centile.

      @melthebell, keep us posted. We are learning more and more about gluten disorders as time goes on. One of the things that has become apparent to me is that gluten disorders don't always like to fit into the neat little pigeon hole symptomatic and diagnostic paradigms we have created for them. There seems to be a lot more atypical stuff going on than we once realized.
