Does anyone here have a documented case of vitamin d deficiency in which gluten intolerance was a contributing factor? I was just curious. Just dx with vitamin d deficiency, and I'm lactose intolerant. Never tested positive for celiac's disease, but have a positive response to the diet--so I probably am gluten intolerant as well.

Thanks for any info.,

Well it is sooo difficult to get ANY doctor to go after a diagnose of gluten issue, why bother? I had my D3 levels checked recently. Was very low.

I have had the biopsy done, but they took one slice, so I don't believe the report. I am gluten free. Organic. Free-range, pesticide free. I take Iodine. Selenium. Zinc. Vit C. Vit E. Vit D3. Magnesium. Coconut oil. Upped my protein. Lower my gf carbs. Getting OFF of caffeine and having mercury removed from fillings.
Isn't it something that the meds will only believe an invasive procedure that can have false negative results as compared to blood tests? Why would you want your intestines cut into? Go gluten free. Totally. That is the ONLY cure.

I do saunas and yoga for adrenals.

My daughter tested high for wheat/gluten allergy. And corn, soy, casein/cowmilk and eggs. So we have removed or limit them. Gluten free only here. She supplements Vit D3 too as she was low. But not one doctor would relate the two. One didn't take her gluten allergy seriously. He advised she eat wheat bran for her constipation issues. She declined. She feels so much better. We are trying to get her off of synthroid an cytomel by using iodine and supplements. It is slow going.
