Aside from 24-hour Specific Carbohydrate Diet Yogurt, has anyone found a good, gluten-free pro-biotic supplement? I could use some help in finding one. Thank you for your help! :)

I use Kirkman Labs supplements. They have a nice selection of not only gluten-free but allergen-free products. They have a very nice customer service also. www.kirkmanlabs.com

I think the one I take is from Solaray. Whole Foods has a couple of dairy free probiotics, and I haven't seen many at all that contain gluten (unless they have oat fiber listed in the ingredients). Most of them say "gluten free" right on the label.

What do you like about the Solaray one?

We had four different brands in the house at the time of my diagnosis. Nothing on the label about being gluten-free, so I called each company. It surprised me when THREE of them said that the pro-biotics were not gluten free! Only one of them passed: Inflam-Away from Premier Labs.

Problem is that Inflam-Away (not InflameAway, that is a different product) is difficult to find. One online company took my order and never delivered! I can find them locally, but they are very expensive.

I'm hoping to find a good one that I can catch on sale from time to time, or order at a discount, if possible. If I order online, I also want to order from a well-established online merchant who I know and trust.

Also, the ingredients in different brands vary considerably -- I'd really like to hear from people here which ones they use and why -- decisions, decisions! :)

I really like Solaray vitamins, and I know they are gluten free. So that is probably a pretty good suggestion.

I take shelf-stable acidophilus at my local health store who also sells online. I think the price is right, the product really WORKS, and it's gluten, soy, corn, salt, yeast, and preservative free. You can find it Open Original Shared Link.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
