Vitamin Deficiencies

Looking for some recommendations for my Celiac daughter, age 12 who now is deficient in Vitamin D (not a surprise in MN) as well as low in folate. What is a good supplemental source of folate and how much per day, in addition to folate rich foods?

As far as supplements go, do you have a Costco store near you? They carry a D3 supplement (D3 is the most easily assimilated form) and a Super B-Complex by "Nature Made" and a sub-lingual B12 by "Nature's Bounty" that are all gluten free and reasonabley priced. It clearly states on the bottles that they are gluten free. Most if not all of Costco's Signature line and Nature Made vitamins and suplements are gluten free and state so on the bottle.

Oranges are the best natural source of folate, I believe.

Leafy greens are the best source of folic acid - can you get her to eat salads, spinach, and so on?

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
