Advice On Supplements

Can anyone recommend a good gluten-free multi-vitamin? I've tried a few, but keep having bad reactions to them. Even though they say "Gluten Free" on the label, I feel glutened a few hours after taking them.

Is there any reason why a supposedly gluten-free multi-vitamin would do this? I don't really understand how these supplements work with the body, but I'm pretty sure I don't have any other food allergies/intolerances.

Thanks!

I use Nature Made.

When are you taking them? Do you eat/drink something at the same time? I find I can't take vitamins in the morning, no matter what I eat with them (especially ones that contain iron). I take mine at lunch or dinner time and it's much better.

I am SO happy with Country Life, aside from being truly gluten free, they are the only vitamins I take religiously and swallow/tolerate easily. I take the balanced coenzyme B complex, the Easy Iron which is awesome, a unique form of iron that is better absorbed and easy on the stomach, and also their Vitamin D 5000 units. The pills are vegetable capsules, not huge tablets of iron either which is awesome. I FEEL the difference when I do not take them!

I highly recommend them, I buy mine at Vitacost. Low price for a quality supplement company.

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.

      Abscesses on legs

      By the way, have you been diagnosed with celiac disease, and if so, are you on a 100% gluten-free diet?

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      Abscesses on legs

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.
