Pure encapsulations anyone?

[Raquel2021]

Hi,

Has anyone here try pure encapsulations vitamins? They say they are gluten free but took a B12 and felt like I had been glutenned?  Felt like there was a fire in me.

i stopped taking pure encapsulations vitamins besides their zinc the only b12 i have had luck with was the Jarrows lozenge b12 I would reccomend a lozenge over a b12 capsule anyway its much more effective especially with our guts cheers friend hope you feel better soon

Thank you.  Just curious did you also get a reaction from pure encapsulations? Did you feel sick? They say they are gluten free.  I don't understand.  This whole celiac issue is so consuming. I am so tired of it.

What is the difference with the one you now take?

not much of a difference other than its a lozenge that dissolves under the tongue the pure encapsulations products i've bought from amazon from third party sellers have made me feel sick but ones i've ordered directly from them i havent had a problem the only thing i take from them now is zinc just because i havent gotten a new one yet it would be good to contact the company and ask them about their gluten cross contamination prevention measures

Thanks I got mine from Amazon.  I wonder if is fake then. I have called so many companies in the past 2 years. They are often have not clue about gluten.  If they say is gluten free it might still not be. Just my experience.  The only way to know is to see if it makes you sick. The only valuable information I have learned have been here on the internet forums from other celiacs.

I looked up the ingredients. The Pure Encapsulation b12 capsules contain

Hypoallergenic plant fiber (microcrystalline cellulose), Methylcobalamin and Vegetarian capsule (hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose).

Glad is not just me. Let me know how it goes. I have wasted so much money on vitamins.  Thanks for the reply. Any brands you recommend? For b12?
