My husband takes DDS. I don't know where it is available or its price compared to others, but it was recommended to us by a dietician and he's had great results with it.

I take Enzymatic acidophilus pearls. A thing of 30 is like 12 bucks at GNC. It comes in a blue box. They're cheap and quite effective.

Im sorry what is DDS? Thanks for your help. My 12 year old daughter apparently needs to be on a probiotic daily, Her Doctor gave us some samples of Align. Went to but them and they are somewhat expensive also she has to take iron everyday and her insurance will not cover it. New at all this vitamins and minerals, trying to figure it all out. Trying not to spend much money with this economy the way it is. Thanks for ya's input.

My daughter uses "Rexall Naturals" Ultimate Probitotic Formula from Walmart. Comes in a Purple bottle. We checked with the manufacturer and it is Gluten Free. She is extremely sensitive and has been taking it for over a year without problems.

Sorry for the late response. DDS is just the name of the probiotics. Not a very exciting name...

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
