I am 7 weeks into gluten-free living but have run into multiple sensitivies and allergies including beef, casien, milk, chicken, turkey, eggs, some legumes, some fruits, some veggies and I react to sugar in any form. Since I live in a rural area, I haven't been able to locate a good doctor that will stick with me throughout this process and I am really suffering nutritionally. I am hoping that someone will be able to direct me to grain and gluten free nutritional supplements. I would appreciate any replies.

Country Life vitamins are certified gluten free by GIG. Some people love them, some say they react to them. I used to take their Vitamin B12, and did fine. I now use Jarrow Methylcobalamin B12 with no problems. Freeda also states gluten free.

Just keep in mind, any product can be stated as "gluten free" even though it still may contain 20ppm or less of gluten. Some people do just fine with that amount, some do not.

I trust Jarrow, but have never taken any of their other vitamins, only the B12.

I highly recommend Kirkman Labs. They carry not only gluten-free, but allergen-free, i.e., soy-free,egg-free, dairy-free, etc. I'm very sensitive to even c.c. and have had NO problems with their stuff. www.kirkmanlabs.com.

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
