Digest Gold W/ Probiotics Enzymes


TLK879

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I am new to celiac (being diagnosed anyways) and I have been using Enzymedica Digest Gold w/ Probiotics for awhile now. I feel like it helps me a lot; I seem to react less to various foods as I have in the past. I have lots of food intolerances besides gluten that I'm still trying to figure out. I make sure I avoid gluten of course, but I've been exploring w/ other foods that I wasn't able to tolerate 2 years ago (dairy, corn, vinegar, sugar, yeast, possibly nightshades), and my reactions haven't really been much of anything. I read in a few posts that these enzymes (even though they say gluten free) contain gluten! Now, I'm not sure what I should do, because I feel like they have been helping me. ?? I just recently ordered a bottle of 180 tablets, so I don't want to waste it unless they are truly bad for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Tracey

I use digest gold and its gluten-free. I haven't used it with prpbiotics but if you're in doubt call the manufacturer.

I agree with PricklyPear. You need to contact the manufacturer. The website says there are no fillers in their capsules but there is no clear allergy or gluten information anywhere on that website that I can find.

Thanks! There were just a few posts about it saying that there was gluten in it, and it scared me. Will do.

We have "twitchy" digestive systems around here. :lol: A lot of people assume all of their reactions are gluten-related so you have to be careful when you read hearsay on the board. In this case, it's not uncommon to have a bad reaction to a strong probiotic if you've never taken them before.

Look for a letter from a manufacturer, that the board member spoke to the company, or for a post with a link to the company's site that verifies gluten status. If the post isn't recent (you have to decide for yourself what is satisfactory) then assume you need to contact the company again. If you share what you find, it helps the next person who searches.

      Thank you for the information. I did order/receive GliadinX to have on hand in the event of suspected exposure.

      Just had a letter through from the Celiac team, they’ve diagnosed me through my bloods, no endoscopy/biopsy needed. I guess I’ll be sticking around on this forum and I’m sure I’ll be back soon. thanks for all your help

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?
