I wouldn't worry about the levels of vitamins in this product but I would worry a great deal about the fact that it has both barley and wheat in it. You were wise to stop taking it if you are gluten intolerant or celiac.

I stopped because I didn't know I was doing too much over the daily dose for these vitamins and minerals that are not water soluble. At the time, I didn't know I had any type of intolerance. I just knew I craved certain food and could eat it at any time of the day. I am not diagnosed but I know there is something going on. I just wonder how much my supplements could have hidden if I had malabsorption since I don't have many deficiencies. I have been taking vit D 1000 iu, vit B complex 50, vit C 1000mg, Calcium 1100mg and Magnesium 450mg for years (except for the vit D for only 1.5 year). And on the top of that, I started doing my weird cleanse with my heavy supplements and did for about a month. I never go without calcium/mag and vit B since I know their value and function on sleep, stress and muscles.

Go get yourself a book regarding what amounts of supplements/vitamins, etc you should be taking and for what. I suggest "Prescription for Nutritional Healing" by Phyllis A. Balch, CNC. I refer to it all the time.

Regarding the wheat grass, etc. I was shocked to see a powder mix (can't recall what brand) that stated "gluten free" on the front then listed wheat grass and barley grass as ingredients. I need to look further into whether those in "grass" form are free from the gluten.

....Actually I may sit here with my book and look over your list item by item and tell you what my book says.

Sorry for the late reply but until today I didn't know how to find my topics. I just realized how. Thanks for your reply. Wheat and barley grass can be gluten free because the grass doesn't contain the protein gluten. I am taking wheat grass this week to help me with candida alkalize and get some good enzymes. If they don't say gluten free it would be from contamination.

They may not contain the protein but many of us react to them. If you are diagnosed or gluten free you may find the wheat grass makes you ill. That should be the first thing you drop if you notice an increase in symptoms.

If you do a board seach using wheat grass as the term there are many posts and some may have links to info on it. It is not something advised despite it's supposed gluten free statis.

      About 5 Months ago I got a little bit sick and since then I have been having trouble focusing, rembering, thinking thought through, having pressure on my head and even just talking to friends normaly has become a challange. I also have been having yellowish poops. My father was has celiac but I am not sure if thats what is causeing my problems becasue I dont have any abdomnial pain like him. i have also tried going gluten free for a week with no results, but maybe i just need to try for longer. I have gone to doctors but they haven't had really any ideas as to whats wrong with me they just say it could be anything and try this drug maybe it will work. I really am tired of feeling terrible all the time and if any one knows if these symptoms are common to celiac or has any other ideas whats wrong with me please let me know.

      What type of cheese can I eat?

      You may want to search the same site for other makers of the drug, if there are any. Many times generic manufacturers make the same drugs using different inactive ingredients. To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Thank you for your kindness. I have just begun CPTSD treatment & it's so hard to go through all this history realizing I could have had a healthier life had my mother had my best interest as she did her own needs and desires. I often thought she had kids to work for her. She did the bills and the laundry. She wore the pants in the family, I knew that & I know my stepfather was elated to tell me no. He had no interest in taking care of me ever. And he doesn't even understand that he caused these horrible health issues of my mothers and myself. His ignorance is bliss. He said he didn't want to hear about my health issues. Thanks again for being here and responding. It gives me a place of safety and understanding I haven't had for years. thanks, Jane
