If You Need To Gain Weight

One of my concerns other than feeling better, was the weight I was losing from malnutrition. All my friends thought I had an eating disorder, going from 130 to 102lbs. My dietician said the best thing I can do is drink juice all day long. I really enjoy "white cran strawberry" and I have a sensitive stomach. Apple and grape are good, but I don't like grapes too much.

Drink the juice if you need to maintain or gain weight!

I just had surgery and my doctor has me on Ensure to help with nutrition and to help me maintain weight and not lose anymore. They are gluten free and don't taste too bad. I really like the butter pecan. Good luck.

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
