Hi Wendy,

I would call the company and ask--the 2 ingredients I bolded could be derived from wheat.

thanks I will call Monday.

I hope I didn't make a huge mistake in not thinking of this....

The safest way for me to go is to choose brands that state on the bottle whether their products as gluten free or not. I know NOW and NatureMade both will clearly say on the bottle if the product is gluten free. I believe there are a couple other brands that do, like GNC, but I tend to stick with NOW and NatureMade.

Thank you for your thoughts. I did call the company and they are gluten-free. Thank goodness. I also have switched to Nature Made for a lot of things. I also buy Sam's club ones that say Gluten Free right on the label.. So much to think about that is why I am so thankful for all of you. I read almost all the new posts. I don't reply much because I don't feel knowledgeable enough but reading is such a huge help. Thank you all!

Wendy

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      Natural remedies

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
