Ingredients with B vitamins


lmemsm

I've been gluten free over a year.  Most wheat flours have added vitamins like the various B vitamins.  Since I'm no longer using wheat in my recipes, I feel like I'm not getting enough of the B vitamins anymore.  I'm currently supplementing with a multivitamin or a B+ vitamin and I feel better when I take them.  However, I was wondering if there were ingredients or foods that are high in B vitamins that one could add to a diet or to recipes.  I am trying to get liver once a week and also trying to eat nori which is a source for B12 (although research isn't sure how bioavailable it is).  Any other suggestions appreciated.  Thank you.

If you’re baking, the King Arthur gliten free flours are enriched with some B vitamins

meat (especially liver), seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, legumes, leafy greens, seeds.

I could not get enough iodine from nori.  I use Liquid Iodine or Nascent Iodine to get daily 500 mcg to 1500 mcg a day. RDA in US is 150 - 1150 mcg a day.  In Japan it is 150 - 3000 mcg a day.  Improves muscle tone, skin, hair nails, siow wound healing (including gut), mental acuity.

Fermented pickles contain several B vitamins, including:

  • Thiamin (B1): Contributes to healthy cardiovascular and nervous systems
  • Riboflavin (B2): Plays a role in energy production
  • Niacin (B3): Helps stabilize and lower cholesterol levels

Folic acid: Helps produce and maintain new cells, and prevent DNA changes that can lead to cancer

Choline (formerly B4) liver, eggs, beef

The foods containing vitamin B12 are primarily animal meat, fish, eggs, and dairy.

The B vitamins from food have no upper limit.

Liver is one of the healthiest foods to eat notwithstanding cholesterol and fat. Liver also has higher amounts of vitamin A and copper so to avoid getting caught up in that I eat 1/2 ounce per day.

I can usually only eat it as chopped liver, but the commercial ones all have wheat added.  Wish I could, but it creeps me.  Cod Liver Oil works.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
