ARCHIVED Vsl#3 "has" Gluten In It
whattodo posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have been prescribed VSL#3 from my dietician and i noticed it says there are trace amounts of gluten in it. I just want to know how many people take VSL#3 in the states, and whether thay have any problems with it. Apparently there is no difference between the uk one and the us one other than the flavoring. I emailed the manufacturer over here in the... -

I have noticed that on my left hand side, one of my middle ribs protrudes further out than the other right. I am trying work out what could be causing this. I want to rule out problems with my stomach if possible. My stomach did tend to get bloated when eating gluten but reduced alot now i am off it. I wonder if this bloating could be pushing the rib out...

ARCHIVED Is Vsl#3 Safe
whattodo replied to whattodo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I rang the company who make VSL#3 over here and they said yes there are traces amount of gluten in VSL#3 and it is made in the exact same way as the ones in America. The difference is that the regulations regarding packaging over here are much stronger that that it america and therefore have to state even trace amounts. He also said if they have trace amounts... -

It states on mine "this product contains traces of gluten, soy, lactose and skimmed dehydrated milk. It states this on the packaging and the inset leaflet. Did you ring Actial Farmaceuticals Ltd It states it in the website aswell http://www.vsl3.co.uk/index.php?option=com...6&Itemid=29 Dont know what to do? -

Hi everyone, I have had a prescription from my doctor for some VSL#3 Probiotic food supplement. I got this to try and help with my candida and get me some good bacteria after a course of antibiotics. My question is, is it safe for celiacs to take, i read in the leaflet it has traces of gluten in it. Thanks, Jason -

Hi chris, thanks for the response. When i had the MRI scan done it was done on the nhs. The neurosurgeon i am seeing tomorrow is being done private. I dont mind things happening to me below the neck, but things above the neck i do not want to mess with. Why did the neurologist suggest that he test your cerebrospinal fluid, did he mention if it was celiac... -

My doctor didnt have a clue neither, he just said that an area in the brain is larger than it should be. Perhaps inflamed. he refered to this area as the place where the brain fluid is found and then used to...
