Vitamins And Supplements

[newceliac]

It seems there are so many different supplements and vitamins on the market. I would like to take supplements that are good for us with celiac disease, however it is quite mind boggling when you go to that section of the store because there are so many.

I would like to know which supplements that you think are most important to aid in the healing and overall continued well being of our health.

Also, has anyone taken any of the Andrew Lessman vitamins or supplements?

Thanking you in advance for your help.

I take Rainbow Light Healthy Family Multivitamin powder. Since it is a powder it is more easily absorbed and I can tell the difference in the way I feel. Some places that carry the brand but not that specific product will order it free of additional charge.

Do you know if it is dairy free - the casin? I know that it doesn't have lactose. Is there a toll free number on the package to see if it is CF too?

This is what worked for me. My Dr. had tried a number of things which didn't seem to have results but then gave me these two items which took away my chest/stomach pain.

I now take VSL #3. The description says "The living shield, A medical food for the dietary management of irritable bowel syndrome or ulcerative colitis. 225 billion live lactic acid bacteria per serving. "

I also take Metagenics Glutagentics which says "Powerful Gastrointestinal Lining Support". It contains L-Glutamine, Deglycrrhizinized Licorice Root, Aloe Leaf Extract.

I haven't had luck with multivitamins but I've stopped experimenting so there is probably something that works for me I just don't know it.

I was not diagnosed with either irritable bowel syndrome or ulcerative colitis but My Dr. wanted to get the good bacteria back in balance in my system. I wasn't sure if you were asking for thing that worked or just for multivitamin suggestions so thought I'd throw my $.02 in.

Best,

Michelle
