Which Multi Vitamin Is gluten-free?

I am just less than a month gluten-free after positive BW and scope/biopsies. I am looking for a multivitamin that is for sure Gluten free and am having troubles finding one! I know brands are different between US and Canada, so just to let you know I am in Canada. I found one that said Wheat Free but not Gluten free, so I don't feel comfortable with that. Others just don't say anything! The ingredients look ok, but I don't know what half of the stuff is, and I can't find one that says clearly Gluten Free. Jamieson Brand has many single vitamins and supplements that are labeled as Gluten Free but I couldn't find a multi vitamin.

What do you take?

go to London drugs and tell them what you need. The London drugs in b.c. Where I am have always been super helpful, even called manufacturers

Ive been looking for a multivitamin in Canada too. I found this.. Open Original Shared Link it has Wheat Grass and Barley Grass but I read Pure wheat grass and barley grass (just the grass, with absolutely no seeds) do not contain gluten. Im pretty new at all of this too so I dont know about all the other stuff in it.

EDIT: I emailed NOW Foods and they confirmed that these are not gluten free.

I take One-A-Day.

I believe the Canadian version actually says gluten-free (it's been awhile since I did my homework on it, though.)

When I called the company they said that while all the ingredients were gluten-free, they couldn't promise that there was no CC of the ingredients before they got to them. Pretty much, they don't do gluten testing.

I took it as a legal CYA statement and I've taken them without problem.

If you have Wal-Greens stores there, some of their brand of multi-vitamins are labeled as gluten-free.

I read so many reviews with people saying One-A-Day makes you nauseous about half hour after you take them.

I used to take Costco's brand "Kirkland", it's actually a pretty complete formula and very cost effecitve - even says gluten free on the bottle.

Right now my naturopath has me on something stronger, a powder form multivitamin called AOR Essential Mix, Blackberry Flavour. This should be available in any vitamin or good health food store. When I went on it I called the company and they confirmed its gluten-free. I'm not gonna lie, it tastes pretty bad. I'm seriously thinking about going back to the Kirkland vitamins.

I'll agree with this, but I don't think it's celiac-related.

I've found that just about any large rough-type (I don't know a better way to describe the outside of it) vitamin I take makes me nauseous right after I take it. Eating something small with it definitely helps.

This has always been the case for me, though, for every type I can remember. Pre-natals like this years ago made me feel the same way.

I switched to gummy vitamins (several brands are labeled gluten-free) because most standard vitamins also made me nauseated afterwards - not glutened, and I don't suspect any gluten cc at all, just nauseated - perhaps something about the coating and my system. It has worked well because I also take omega 3 gummy vitamins which taste bad but if I chew the multi vitamins at the same time as the omega 3 vitamins they are tolerable.

      @Joe R Thanks for clarifying! That's what I've heard, too, about Italy, but I've never been, sad face. Almost no one on these boards would recommend the approach of your GI doc, and would instead stick with yours. (Maybe if a "glutening" causes so many discomforts and inconveniences that it just overwhelms your life, and you have nothing else to do...maybe.) But, generally in the clinical setting, coming off prednisone requires a taper, as suddenly quitting can cause problems. Anyway, good for you!

      Immunologist Referral if IgA Deficient

      By Joe R · Posted

      I am 58 years old and was diagnosed two years ago with Celiac Disease based on an EGD showing lymphocytic infiltrates and blunted villi in my duodenum. Lab work shows a severe IgA deficiency. Is it worthwhile to consult with an immunologist regarding the IgA deficiency?  I don’t seem to have any chronic sinus issues or infections but feel like I should get more information regarding the consequences of not having IgA from an expert. I live in Atlanta and surprisingly I have yet to find an immunologist that specializes in this area. Does anyone have a suggestion as to who I con consult with?  I’m sure that telemedicine consults can easily be accomplished these days if I can’t find a local expert.

      I was diagnosed in 1994 with celiac disease by Kaiser with biopsy and was told to stay away from wheat and I'll be just fine.I have and Im not.Had my first baby in 94 and my tolerance level was horrible.Having a celiac episode we all know how its horrible with the vomiting and digestive issues. Never googled because internet wasn't around.Still pushing through that's my normal.In 2001 was busy with my sick baby that went through the ringer with severe chronic Neutropenia it was horrible times he out grew it now almost 24 years old this month. In 2007 still digestive issues had blood drawn and have many food allergies.  told my primary im celiac ( i had primary Dr 25 YEARS up til May 2025.My savior was tramadel thats what my doctor gave me and thats what ive been on up til 2023 stopped when i got covid for the 3rd time to give my body a break. Been through  every test.Gi Dr as well who said I wasn't. celiac in 2024 Ive been glutenfree for 30 years at the time now 31 years. Im going to Standford this year and had breath test and sibo which is positive. I have ulcers on my body and I asked how when it was diagnosed as staph 4 years ago, not wanting to admit its from my dismissed celiac condition. Currently dealing with that.My last job was a bus driver last day of work was in March 2023. I was released from my job because of being out so long dealing with health issues. Disability is not helping at all, no income stressed.Currently doing more test and will be going under again next month with new GI doctor at Standford. Depressed because Im literally falling apart and it seems as if menopause is activating it more.Not eating what im not supposed too,always feeling full, tired, eye sensitivity to sunlight, constant bumps in back of my throat, pain down my left leg. Going through more test.Why is it so hard to get help or is it because I was dismissed all these decades?Should I take legal action?Im Currently not doing well which is keeping me from holding a job and im getting older.I can't push through anymore.Im very much into natural supplements that help but im still declining with one thing after another. What miracle will help so I can get back in the production line to make money.

      That was the suggestion from my GI doc but I never book the medicine and maintained a strict gluten free diet. Actually, Italy is much more sensitive to gluten free diets than the US, I found.

      @Joe R are you saying that while traveling in Italy as a person with Celiac disease, you are eating gluten-containing foods and taking prednisone to dampen down the flares? Plumbago
