Questions About Alpha Supplement


masterjen

Recommended Posts

I am considering purchasing some Alpha PMX (I think this is the one that has the extra protein, which is the one I'm interested in). The reason I'm interested is I still have days where eating is sometimes difficult, and I like the balanced nutritional profile of the Alpha products. Also, I typically work out a lot (although haven't been able to start up again because of severity of symptoms since being diagnosed and going gluten free - muscle weakness, headache and gastro. symptoms when I try to exercise for even 10 or 15 min.) Anyway, I've read that the product is corn-based, but I also know that corn is not easily digested for most people, let alone someone with celiac. Any thoughts/opinions?

I am curious if you have started the Alpha supplements. I was diagnosed 3/2010 and the energy level is low - lots of naps, unfortunately, are needed. I feel more fatigued after commencing a pure gluten-free diet, ironically. Also, I use to be very athletic with 5 workouts per week, which sustained a tremendous level of energy, which is completely lost now. This is quite difficult to accept. So, if you experienced some positive results with Alpha, I would like to know if you are more energized by this. I know there is light at the end of the Celiac Tunnel and I will remain positive and patient, I just miss my energy so much!

Keep up the good work.

No haven't started yet. Money was getting a little tight there for awhile (I'm still not back to work full-time), but I still plan to. It is the best formulation I've researched so far.

      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

      Thank you.  I certainly take it seriously, no matter what my diagnosis is, and I do a lot of my own research also.  I just want to make sure I'm doing everything "right" as much as I can without jeopardizing any test result accuracy since this may be my last shot at getting an official diagnosis since I plan to go fully gluten-free afterwards! Yup, I am certainly making a current effort to eat plenty of it!  Not only for test accuracy, but I figure I may as well enjoy it now just in case it's my last go at it also.

      @Scott Adams I would say it means , no it is not verified gluten free. I am extremely sensitive and I also have OCD. So that answer is entirely too vague for me. However , if it suits others then I am happy for those individuals

      Have you considered eating plenty of gluten from now until your capsule endoscopy? If you truly have celiac disease that would increase the chances of damage being seen.
