GLUTEN FREE VITAMINS


SLG

Recommended Posts

SLG Newbie

I was wondering what gluten-free vitamin I you guys would recommend for my 9 year old. I currently give him lil critters gummy vitamins but suddenly he claims he doesn't like them. He doesn't mind swallowing pills however I am not sure which gluten-free multi-vitamin would be best? My concern is that most vitamin capsules are huge and I am not sure if he would be able to swallow them. Please help. Thank you!

Liquid Sublingual so no pills, you just measure out and add it to beverage of choice. I use the Stress & Energy and Neurological support 1 tbsp each 3 times a day. Perhaps half that for kids. OR get the childrens multi. You can find them on Luckyvitamin.com and amazon. I get them at the cheapest and watch both sources. Liquid forms are much easier absorbed also.

Does he need vitamins?  Has his doctor run a vitamin and mineral panel?  Mine did.   I take no vitamins.  None.  Except for the first few months, I took an iron supplement after my Celiac Disease diagnosis.  My anemia resolved within months.  It was either that or some blood transfusions which I declined.    I do make sure to eat a healthy diet as does my family who also does not take vitamins.

I buy Nature's Way Alive! chewables, but I actually find it makes my older celiac daughter irritable, the other one has no side effects.  The I have looked high and low for gluten-free allergy friendly vitamins. I can't take anything other than sublingual because it stresses my liver out more. Be careful of that. The longer you have been undiagnosed the more it's going to stress out your body. I was also severely anemic--and the only way I got my iron back up was through red meat.

      @RMJ@Scott Adams@knitty kitty, Thank you for all of your responses, tips, and suggestions. I'm very grateful that this website exists. It makes me feel a lot less alone in my celiac journey!  The endocrinologist had me do a neck ultrasound just to be safe. Thankfully, thyroid and lymph nodes came back normal. knitty kitty, my Vitamin D is on the higher end of normal, but I will definitely consider the dentist route next time I have my checkup if I'm still noticing issues. Thank you! Scott, thanks for suggesting the ENT. I may consider seeing one if things don't resolve on their own. I am thankfully feeling a bit better now, so hopefully, this is just some sort of residual celiac inflammation like you mentioned, Scott. After all of the numerous tests and clinical visits I've had all year, I'm going to give my body (and wallet) a break for a few months to rest and heal without the stress of doctor appts/labwork and whatnot. Perhaps the health anxiety is also contributing to some of my symptoms.  Thank you once again for sharing your stories.

      Using a pressure cooker will break down Lectins.  Long cooking times as in using a crock pot will also reduce Lectin content.   However, having tried both, going lectin free for a few weeks is like a vacation for my digestive system.  I do hope you give the AIP diet a try.  I understand that changing ones diet takes a lot of mental readjustment which is difficult, but it's really worth the effort for long-term health.   P.S.  Once your digestive tract is healed up, you should be able to add beans and rice back into your diet gradually.

      Depending on which source you research sprouting or fermentation can reduce lectins. I sprout rice, buckwheat and quinoa. However, I admit that gas and intestinal inflammation still plague me after 5 1/2 mo gluten-free. I have been resisting but I may try the aip diet at some point.

      Hi @jadeceoliacuk I am a UK based coeliac and I have used a private nutritionist a few times. She is very highly qualified and having just googled her details, she is listed on this website (see link).  For that reason, I think you could trust the listings here as I am quite sure she would not want to associate with this website unless it was a professional, trustworthy resource. https://www.nutritionist-resource.org.uk/ I hope this helps.
