I read some posts on here that people were having reactions to vitamin E?

Why? I did some googling but couldn't find anything.

I just purchased a vitamin E oil thats amazing.

It has safflower oil, grapeseed oil, and vitamin E.

I havent had any negative reactions to it, in fact its really been helping with the fine

lines under my eyes.

Should I not be using it?

A lot of vitamin E is derived from wheat germ oil. Many brands are derived from soy. You might want to find out where the vitamin E in your brand is coming from.

If it isn't wheat germ oil, then you are okay. If soy, it depends if you are intolerant to soy.

A few people here couldn't get really well, and eventually found out that their vitamins had vitamin E from wheat germ oil. When they switched brands, or stopped taking the vitamins, they got better.

But not everybody will react to it, only people who are the most sensitive to gluten.

Hmm. It doesn't say if its derived from soy or wheat. Its a product from the dollar store,

I don't even know if the company is in existence anymore as I googled the name and nothing came up but some other unrelated company. I guess I'll continue to use it and see what happens.

Thanks!

I would avoid it.  I am careful about anything that goes on my hands, lips and face that could be accidentally ingested.    Setting off a celiac flare up would probably impact healing from surgery.  Ask your doctor for a substitute.  From my quick research vitamin e does not prevent scarring.

I use Vintage Tradition Tallow Balm.  Tallow Balm does help heal scars.

      Joint swelling when ill even on gluten-free diet

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Spacepanther, I found these articles about the connection between Celiac and joint pain. Musculoskeletal Complications of Celiac Disease: A Case-Based Review https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10201087/ And   Intestinal microbiome composition and its relation to joint pain and inflammation https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6814863/ And The gut microbiome-joint connection: implications in osteoarthritis https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6903327/ Sounds like it's time to change the diet to change the microbiome.

      Still testing positive after being gluten free for one year ?!!

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Shireen32,  Take some deep breaths.  Your labs are fine!  Your tTg IgA is so low!  Well done!  Your endomysial IgA is fine.  There's not a level on the endomysial test.  It's just "yes or no" for if you have celiac disease.   No, it's too early to call it refractory. What are you eating?  Please tell us more than meat and veg. Do you consume dairy? Do you consume processed gluten free foods?   Are you taking any prescription medications, herbal supplements, vitamins and minerals?

      Joint swelling when ill even on gluten-free diet

      By Spacepanther · Posted

      thank you knitty kitty I don't have a vitamin deficiency and I supplement omegas.  Are there other more mild symptoms that co-occur with your joint pain as well @Moodiefoodie? I am suspicious my own joint pain could be related to another autoimmune issue. I am wondering if it is Crohn's or something similar because I've continued to experience some issues despite having normal celiac antibody levels. What have you considered?

      Yes, it could be. Anti histamines help with the symptoms but I don't really like to take them long term.
