      calcium malabsorption that does not resolve with supplementation

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      What is considered "Normal" Vitamin D can range from 30 to 100 ng/ml.  Celiac people are better off with levels between 73 and 100 ng/ml.  Is yours in that range? What form of Thiamine was in your B vitamins?  If it was thiamine mononitrate, which is not well absorbed nor biologically active, you would do well to take another form, like Benfotiamine.  In Thiamine Deficiency Disorders, higher doses of thiamine not normally seen in B Complex supplements are needed to overcome the deficiency.   Benfotiamine can get into cells much easier, bypassing the thiamine/Folate transporters on the surface of cells in the body.  If there's thiamine deficiency, the transporters shut down, and Thiamine as well as Folate cannot get into the cells.  Taking Benfotiamine allows the thiamine to get into cells a different way, piercing through the lipid membrane of cells.  Once sufficient thiamine enters the cells, the transporters can become active again.  High doses of Thiamine are required to do this though.  High doses begin at a minimum of 300 to 500 mg/ day, three times a day.

      I have already tried thiamine supplementation with a supplement containing group B vitamins and therefore B1 with calcium cane changes nothing. No alcohol, I eat a normal amount of carbohydrates, my potassium, magnesium, sodium, total calcium levels are normal but not ionized calcium which is the active form of calcium in the body my vit d level is normal including the active form of vit d (calcitriol)

      Magnesium is stored in your bones, just like calcium.  When you need more magnesium, the body can pull it out of the bones, so low blood magnesium levels might not be reflected.  Thiamine and magnesium work together... a deficiency in either one can affect how the other functions. Thiamine is needed to regulate calcium ions.   "Because the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of calcium ion storage, Thiamine Deficiency and oxidative stress can cause dysregulation intracellular calcium homeostasis and may induce ER stress." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10568373/ Alkaline phosphatase levels increase in Thiamine deficient states.  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/168690/ Thiamine is water soluble and nontoxic even in high doses.  There is no harm in trying it for several days and looking for improvement.   How is your potassium level?  Potassium, calcium and magnesium work together to maintain a balance.   What is your Vitamin D level?  Are you taking D2 or D3? What are you eating?  How much of your diet is carbohydrates?  Are you taking any prescription medications?  Other supplements?  Drink alcohol?

      24 year old son newly diagnosed with Celiac

      Welcome to the forum, @SusanB123! Celiac disease has a genetic base but the genes need some stress trigger to be "turned on" to result in active celiac disease. Almost 40% of the population has one or more of the genes that are associated with celiac disease but only about 1% ever develop active celiac disease because the genes aren't turned on. The stress trigger is the mysterious part but it can be an illness, emotional/psychological trauma, environmental toxins, antibiotics or a lot of things. We don't know much about this part. Perhaps your son's appendicitis was the trigger in this instance. The onset of celiac disease can happen at any stage of life. Gluten can be found in more than just food. It can be found in oral hygiene products, pills and medications, vitamins and supplements. Studies show the biggest threat to the gluten free diet is eating out. You have no control over cross contamination in eatery kitchens. Their gluten free menu items may be cooked right along with gluten containing foods in the same water, on the same grill, sliced and served with the same utensils. I will embed an article that might be helpful to you and your son in avoiding hidden sources of gluten. But having said that, is he still consuming oats and dairy? Their proteins are similar in structure to gluten and many celiacs "cross react" to these foods like they do gluten.
