Yes, a nutritionist should be able to order tests for nutritional deficiencies.  Test for magnesium, Vitamin D, and iron.

Blood tests for the B vitamins are not accurate.  The best way to test for deficiencies is to take B Complex and Benfotiamine and look for improvement.

I like Life Extension, and Nature's Way.  Yes, available on Amazon.  Stay away from rice flour fillers.

Keep in mind that blood tests for nutritional deficiencies may not be valid if you are already taking vitamin supplements. That may mask deficiencies.

so just to update, Ive been watching what i eat to see what symptoms i develop. one of them is a clogged ear. I noticed a few months ago my ear would clog up every morning and had no idea why. since Ive stopped eating gluten it no longer occurs. I had instant rice two days ago (non gluten free) and developed the clogged ear shortly after eating. yesterday i had gluten free rice and for the last two days no clogged ear. weird stuff. im also noticing fats from eggs or pork make me feel sleepy, lethargic, depressed and my nervous system is masked if that makes sense. I feel like ive taken a pain killer when i eat even the smallest amount of fat. I realize iam not digesting it properly but the effects of it are crazy.

      I strongly agree with others about processed gluten free foods, like breads and pasta, being bad for us. Read the labels, full of this starch and that starch, seed oils that are inflammatory, etc. Before you were celiac, you probably wouldn't even touch something with those ingredients. I do much better with whole foods, meat, veggies, a little fruit. I made 90% myself, make extra and freeze it for future meals. Cutting out processed gluten free food and eating mostly real whoke food helped me feel much better. And definitely benfotiamine!

      Please be sure to try Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride.  The form Thiamine Mononitrate is not absorbed nor utilized well.  Benfotiamine is much more bioavailable.  Perhaps Thiamine Mononitrate was in your previous B Complex supplements, explaining why they didn't work for you.   All the B vitamins work together.  Thiamine needs the other B vitamins to make enzymes and ATP, so you will need to take them.  Taking them in individual supplements is fine.  I've done the same.  Just remember you need all eight.   Let me know how it's going for you!

      Thanks! This makes a lot of sense.

      Thanks! I am currently trying B1 out on its own. I tried many brands of B-complex and they always make me feel nauseous and tired. I think I may have to try taking each B vitamin on its own.
