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!!!!!

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.

      Sorry... I accepted it!  I don't want shingles EVER again!

      I finally am seeing a GI specialist after being gluten free for over 10 years. When I turned 30 an allergy panel stated that I was allergic to wheat, barley, rye, oats, peanuts, soy, and crab/lobster. A friend who worked at a pharmacy said my results looked just like hers and that I was probably celiac or severely gluten sensitive, so I stopped eating gluten and everything else on my list. I felt better. Since November of 2024 I've been having issues that looked like thyroid, but could be EoE in combination with perimenopause and went off of dairy as well, which provided relief. While in Europe in November I decided to try eating wheat because I kept hearing rumors that I may not react to their wheat, and I didn't. I was so glad that now I'm importing it to make my own breads. My Homeopathic doctor said it was probably the glyphosates and pesticides that I am allergic too or reacting too, not the gluten. The GI wants to retest me for celiac and told me that I would need to switch back to American wheat products for the test to come out positive otherwise I may test negative since European wheat is different. This makes no sense to me. Gluten is gluten and is in the flour there as well as here. Please help, I don't want to ingest the pesticides and glyphosates for this test as I get severe migraines, bloating and joint pain when I do eat American wheat products. That is how I know I've had cross-contamination at restaurants. Does the type of wheat really matter???? I am so conflicted with this. The GI was getting irritated with me insisting that if gluten was really the issue that it would still show up regardless of where the wheat came from.

      Speaking from experience, and as someone who was taking zinc in my multivitamins at the time of my outbreak, I would not rely on zinc or other supplements to prevent a shingles outbreak. That is what the new, extremely effective, 2 shot shingles vaccine is for, and this vaccine is very effective at preventing outbreaks. In my case I've not had shingles symptoms since I had the vaccine, which was over 10 years ago.

      When you say you didn't think twice when it was offered to you, are you meaning that you dismissed it or that without hesitation you got the vaccination?

      I would note that the article linked here is putting forth a hypothesis, not presenting a scientific conclusion. And the one about zinc as a treatment for shingles is careful to say that the evidence is weak. It gets a "Source of validity" science rating of 2 out of 5.
