Never mind jsut foud this on thier site..

We do not add gluten to any of our formulas. However, we cannot guarantee that they are 100% gluten free due to potential trace amounts that could be added or used in the manufacturing process of the ingredients supplied by our vendors.

That not good. I wouldn't take these. Besides any pill form vitamin is only being absorbed about 5-10 percent. My son in on Kids Reliv. He drinks a shake in the morning and it tastes really good. If comes in Vanilla and Chocolate and you mix with milk, soy milk or any kind of milk or maybe even water and make a smoothie. If you need information on this please email me.

Never heard of Kids Reliv, for now he is back on poly vi sol which this site lists as safe. I plan to get with his peditrician about all this soon. Right now only the GI doc is aware fo the situation.

I will have to look for Kid Reliv...

Hi Vincent.

Gee, I had forgotten about PolyViSol. Our oldest son used to take that when he was a baby over 20 years ago. They grow up fast!

I've heard other people say, as Eloise did, that pill form vitamins are not as well absorbed, and I don't disbelieve it. But personally, I haven't found an affordable or readily available liquid vitamin mineral formula, so I use Centrum Chewables. They can be taken by anyone 9 years old and older. (Don't know how old your son is.)

Take care.

Babies can do Kids Reliv. Expectant mothers can do Reliv as well. My neighbor has a 1 year old that was sick from what she thought was a stomach virum had severe diarrhea and vomiting and is gluten intolerant and was loosing weight and was on the Brat diet started taking the Kids Reliv. He had already been to the hospital several times and had been through lots of tests and vomiting still hadn't stopped. This had already gone on for about a little over a month and she was desperate and talked to me about my condition and if I had any ideas as to what she could do. Kids Reliv was what I recommended and it really helped him. He got well and as soon as he took his first shake he never vomitted again. Please e-mail me if you have any questions about Reliv @emcleroy@clearworks.net.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
