Wheat Cat Litter


GFHeather

Recommended Posts

GFHeather Newbie

I was diagnosed and started my gluten-free diet in July 2003 and get my blood retested in November. I'm one of those more silent-celiac sufferers because I don't have overt gastric symptoms (although I do have Osteopenia even though I'm not in menopause) -- so I wouldn't know if I'd accidentally ingested some gluten.

My sister's household uses wheat cat litter for their cats. The cats come around you when you're visiting and they climb on the furniture and jump on the dining table etc.

Does anyone have any information on the dangers of wheat cat litter and Celiacs? It's dusty in the room where they keep the litter box and I wonder how much of that dust is throughout the house and even on my sister and her family's clothes. I assume if there's dust, there's also some dust in the air that gets breathed in.

I'd hate to stop visiting her at her house, but I need to beat this Celiac.

Thanks for any info. or experiance anyone has with this!

      I am not taking anything except for the multivitamins that I purchased from the supermarket.

      The critic acid and sodium citrate is corn unfortunately and they don’t have to label corn because it’s not part of the top 9 allergen and not mandatory 😭

      Yaya, from the JAMA study you refer to: "Taking 60,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity." No one on this forum is recommending  taking anywhere near that amount. We're talking about 5-10,000IU daily.

      "Doses higher than the RDA are sometimes used to treat medical problems such as vitamin D deficiency, but these are given only under the care of a doctor for a specified time frame. Blood levels should be monitored while someone is taking high doses of vitamin D." Quoted from the Healthline article @Yaya linked above...
