I am really hoping that someone can help me. I am a newley diagnosed Celiac, and I am going crazy trying to find a gluten free multi. Some say gluten free, yet they contain either barley grass like the womens ultra mega. or hydrolyzed vegetable protein like sisu. I just bought two vitamins. one was USANA, I have them sitting on my counter, and have not taken them. I read some reviews about them and some people say they are so potent that they get side effects. I also bought New Chapter EveryWoman, have been taking them for a couple of days now. They give me extreme energy. Just want to know if everyone out there knows for sure if they are safe. I contacted them and they said they are naturally gluten free. I am just a little nervous as there are alot of natural organic ingredients that i am unaware of.

please someone help me!!!!!

I take Nature Made Multi Complete.

You don't have to order special ultraexpensive vitamins you can take ones that you can get at your local pharmacy or grocery store. I take Nature Made, County Life, Now and Wegmans brand. If your doctor hasn't already have your vitamin and mineral levels checked to see what you need to supplement.

I take New Chapter Organics Woman's One Daily. It is food-based and is the only vitamin I've tried that my body really absorbs. Unfortunately, the New Chapter prenatal vitamin contains oats even though it claims to be "naturally gluten free."

Thank you all for getting back to me. I take the everywoman. 3 daily. I must say that the energy is unbelievable. I stopped taking my iron supplements because I feel so much energy. I was just afraid that there was something in there that could potentially make me sick. I went over the ingredients and they seemend okay. I called the company and they said that the oats are uncontaminated. not sure if I would even risk trying it.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
