For Those Who Take Pioneer Nutrtitional Vitamins


Trymester

Recommended Posts

Trymester Contributor

1.) Quick question: The vitamins located in the Gluten-Mall section of this website are mostly Pioneer brand. In their ingredients they include tocopheryl, but in the Unsafe Gluten Free food list: https://www.celiac.com/articles/182/1/Unsaf...ents/Page1.html

"Tocopheryls" is listed as one of the bad things. What's up with that?

2.) I am looking at these different supplements and trying to decide which is best. I thought that A and B were the same with the obvious difference that B is chewable, but the nutritional lables on Pioneer's website show that they are actually different ingredients.

a.) Vitamin/Mineral

b.) Chewable Vitamin/Mineral

c.) 1+ Vitamin/Mineral

Which one do you use? Which one seems best for a young, thin, wannabe exercise-lover 25 year old man?

Tocopheryl can come from more than one souce. Yes wheat is one of those sources but so is soy. It can also be chemically derived in which case you will see D-tocopheryl. That is the one I look for as I can't do soy either.

Thank You for clearing that up.

I had an allergic to the iodine contrast in the CT-scan. Is it likely that the iodine provided by "Sea Vegetation" in the pioneer meds is likely to do harm to my body, at least internally? I mean, I was eating sushi in Japan with no problem, then again, I've also eaten bread and various wheat products my entire life with no problem, but I'm willing to give this gluten-intolerance thing a serious thinking through.

Iodine can be an issue for those of us that have DH. Do you have any rashes? If you do until you are fully healed you should avoid iodine in salt and other foods.

I don't have DH, but thanks to you now I at least know what it is.

I will do a little more research and then see what comes of the 1 month gluten-free diet which I will start sometime in September. I really don't believe I am gluten intolerant, but I figure that after a month on a "completely" gluten and casein free diet, and then after doing the stool sample test from Enterolabs in Nov., that I should have a pretty good idea of what's going on.

      It's so tough when you're doing everything right and still get hit with it. I'm glad you're figuring out a system that works for you—the peppermint tea and rehydration powders are smart moves. It sounds like you've really learned to listen to your body, and that's half the battle. Sticking to simple, safe food at home is the best way to build yourself back up. It's great you can take the time to rest properly. Thanks for sharing what works; it's a big help to others figuring this out too. This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's bad enough to fight for a diagnosis and manage this disease, but to have your partner use it as a weapon against you is truly devastating. What you're describing isn't just a lack of support; it's abuse, full stop. Controlling your food and money is cruel, and his pleasure in your misery is chilling. Please hear this: the kindness from that woman at the food pantry is what you deserve. It's a glimpse of the real world, where people care. You deserve to eat, to heal, and to have peace. His actions are the biggest barrier to your health right now, and you are not broken—you are surviving in an impossible situation. Don't give up on that lifeline you've found.

      Thank you.. Christina My anxiety is through the roof.  I think it was from eggs.  I really don't know because my eyes feel sore. Like I'm allergic to them.  I was defient in B12.   My heart is pounding and it won't stop.  Not sure what to do.   I don't have much support other than this forum.    Colleen

      Thanks rmj when I first rang up it was we can't do it without , but I talked to a lovely lady and she sorted it all out for me, so it pays to be persistent , I would have had to decline if I hadn't been given the water option too , so yes I'm glad too 😌

      I’m so glad they listened to your concerns!  I hope you get some answers from the MRI.
