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.

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
