Target Brand Multi-vitamins

the Target brand multi-vitamin for women (similar to One-A-Days for Women) are on sale this week, making the price a lot less than the branded kind. When i was there last week i asked the pharmacist if he knew if they contained gluten and he mumbled something stupid about how the drug companies aren't including gluten in drugs anymore. i just nodded, put the vitamins back on the shelf and figured i'd ask the way-more-knowledgeable people on this board!

so, does anyone take these vitamins or know if they contain gluten? i was going to write to them but i forgot and i'm going shopping tomorrow and i don't think i'll get an answer in time.

i've always gotten sick (cold and flu like symptoms) whenever i took vitamins as a kid so i wanted to one that is inexpensive in case i react badly. now i'm wondering if the kiddie vitamins had gluten in them and i was having Celiac symptoms way back then...20 years before i was diagnosed?

just in case anyone is wondering, these vitamins DO contain gluten.

response from Target:

The product ingredient list for the Target Brand Women's Daily Vitamins does indicate that gluten is present in the item.

I am so happy to have found this out. I have been gluten free for about two months now, and feeling sooo much better. But, I have not for the life of me been able to figure out why almost every mid-afternoon I get an overwhelming wave of exhaustion, which is usually accompanied by nausea. Ding, ding! It is these darn multivitamins that I have been taking with my lunch. I'm still trying to figure this gluten free stuff out, and by looking at the ingredients I didn't think they would have contained gluten.

it's such a pain to have to contact the manufacturer for each medication! i inquired about the name brand One-A-Day for Women and they are gluten free so i take them now. no problems to speak of...

hope you're feeling better soon Becky!

I contated One-A-Day also and they told me while the vitamins themselves are gluten free, the are manufactured in a facility that also manufactures wheat products so they could not guarantee that gluten did not come in contact with the vitamins. But if you haven't had any problems, that's great. I just don't want to risk it.

Almost in tears after finding this post because I was so excited to finally find the culprit behind my gluten symptoms these past few weeks. I've been Gluten Free (or so I thought) for the past year but have started to get the symptoms back and feel pretty horrible so I've been researching everything, trying to take vitamins, anything I can do to feel normal again. Who would have thought a vitamin could make you feel so HORRIBLE. Thanks for this information---I'm truely excited to finally get some understanding about hope!!

I was just online researching OneADay Vitamins and this is on the FAQ page:

Q. How much gluten does this contain?

A. We do not add any gluten to our products. However, we cannot guarantee that all raw materials are 100% gluten-free.

(Open Original Shared Link)

I saw that for the Women's OneADay they do list Maltodextrin as an ingredient. I stay away from anything that has Maltodextrin, even things labeled gluten-free.

Walmart's generic women's multivitamins and prenatal vitamins are labeled gluten free, just as an FYI.

I thought i would post this, since this post seems to still be going...I just purchased the Target women's multi and the label specifically states that it is gluten free. Target has been offering more and more gluten free options over the last several years, so I am guessing that this is the reason for the change.

This is the second time I've had a huge wave of nausea after taking Target brand multi-vitamins. I checked the bottle and it says gluten free, but there is no doubt that within 10-15 minutes of taking these I have felt horrible. I am taking them with food, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Oddly enough, (TMI), I also get the urge to go to the bathroom at about the same time. So frustrating ... I am going to contact Target to ask again about their labeling.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
