I just started taking probiotics and wanted to know what brands everyone uses. I have DuraFlora...it says it is gluten/dairy/soy free so Im trusting that it is. Is there usually much risk with CC for things like this?

Also my stomach seems to be a bit irritated and its only been 20 mins since taking them. Is this a sign of a possible glutening or is it common to have an upset stomach when taking probiotics?(especially since this is my first time?)

Just thought I'd let you know that Bio-K+ is also gluten/dairy/soy free.

I have no idea concerning the stomach irritation - sorry. But Bio-K+ can help to restore the disrupted intestinal microflora and reduce inflammation of people suffering from celiac disease. Also, it can produce enzymes that will detoxify the gluten.

Hope this helps...

I take Nature's Bounty Chewable Probiotic Acidophilus With Bifidum. I've tried a couple others but this one seems to work the best for me. Label says NO: artificial color, flavor or sweetener, preservatives, milk, lactose, soy, gluten, wheat yeast or fish. Also sodium free. Oh, and I like the taste (strawberry flavor)!

PB8 Vegetarian also works well for me. What exactly do you mean when you say 'irritated' ?

We make fermented foods and also use gutpro. They have a shared facility but test below 5 ppm. They have a new product now with absolutely no fillers.

As for irritation... How much did you take? I've found if your gut is out of whack probiotics can be a shock. Die off of the bad guys happens too fast, releasing toxins. Try taking 1/8 of the recommended dose once you feel better, and increase from there if it feels ok.

I use Culturelle upon the advice of my GI doc. (I was using Custom Probiotics with success). He thought the additional strain of lacto GG was useful and it is backed by studies at Tufts University.

Probiotics should cause you no harm whatsoever, but you can start slowly and work your way up as the previous poster suggests--if your tum feels a bit wonky.

I'm taking Threelac and Bio-Kult. Threelac has been good for me and I'll probably get a box of Fivelac next.

      Ibuprofen

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding

      Oh my goodness medication causing pain !!!!

      By Colleen H · Posted

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Juliane · Posted

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…
