Advice On Gluten Free And Safe Suplements Needed


hex

Recommended Posts

hex Newbie

Hey,

I have been gluten free now for a few weeks things are going well apart from being very under weight and a feeling of not having the strength to do anything.

So this is why I decided to get into shape (I used to be very athletic as a child). I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of gluten and dairy free protein powders/bars and towards supplements that are safe for someone on a gluten and dairy free diet.

Thanks in advance,

Hex

My supplements all say gluten, dairy, soy free on the label, nothing special, picked them up at the Rite Aid. As for protein powder and bars......aren't these all made from wheat protein?

I think I would just try eating steak and fries! And a big fruit smoothie with almond milk. :P Yum

Which specific supplements are you interested in?

As far as protein powders, as I mentioned in another thread I have never had any issues with Beverly International or American Whey brands. Bars-Oatmega 3 are the only ones that seem to have a decent ingredient and nutritional profile.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I am curious: What was your initial level at? How many daily IUs were you taking via supplements and for how long? What did your level drop to? How many daily IUs are you taking now via supplements? Regards, Known1

      Ive been dealing with skin issues and been told it was staph because I was employed as a bus driver during that horrid time that im still actively healing from currently years later. Biopsies they don't want to say its inconclusive they say.Their creams don't work.I do notice Yarrow Pom from Doterra works but of course thats expensive.Prayers

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @MoniqueCham! Celiac disease damages the villous lining of the small bowel but, as far as I know, doesn't affect the underlying smooth muscle tissue of the bowel.

      I am monitored for this value of Vit D.  I kept going down so the Vit D had to be increased.

      I was diagnosed with celiac disease 40 years ago and lymphocytic colitis 20 years ago along with refractory celiac disease affecting mid jejunum to mid ileum (diagnosed using a capsule endoscopy). My antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were normal on a strict gluten free diet. Both the lymphocytic colitis and the refractory celiac disease responded well to entocort. I have a number of autoimmune conditions including systemic granuloma annulaire (a skin condition) which was treated with methotrexate. I was on a low dose of methotrexate (15 mg once a week with folic acid every day when not taking methotrexate). In 5 months my sigmoid colon ruptured. Pathology reports show that I had significant necrosis of my sigmoid bowel due to no known cause and a large hole in the bowel. My surgeons felt that the methotrexate may have caused the damage and rupture to my bowel (1 in a million chance). My question is has anyone experienced similar issues with methotrexate given that the integrity of our intestines may be compromised in celiac disease?
