Do you have Celiac Disease? Dermatitis Hermatiformis? Gluten Intolerance? If so, you may have a special need for a nutritional supplement that works. All of these conditions have malabsorption as a common trait. With out adequate nutrition the body cannot heal. So even if gluten is removed it is important that healing follows. Did you know that vitamin PILLS are only 10% absorbed (Physician's Desk Reference page 1542) and that is if you have a healthy digestive system.
According to Celiac Disease experts, most people suffering from celiac disease are vitamin deficient--especially lacking in enzymes that aid digestion, these enzymes are created from basic nutrients. To correct these deficiencies it is often necessary to take many different types of supplements, which can be very confusing as well as expensive.
For someone who suffers from a gluten sensitivity, keeping their nutritional status at optimum levels is challenging as a result of the issues the gluten sensitivity creates with digestion and absorption. Some practitioners suggest the use of vitamin and mineral supplement powders or liquids to maximize the potential for absorption and hopefully help give the body the nutrients it needs to manage flare-ups and heal.
ALL ONE manufactures three completely gluten free (and dairy free) formulas. ALL ONE Rice Base, Green Phyto Base and the Fruit Antioxidant Formula. The protein base is from rice and helps facilitate better absorption. ALL ONE Fruit Antioxidant formula has the additional benefit of anthocyanins, which are showing great promise as effective for the treatment of inflammation, one of the most damaging symptoms of an allergic reaction to gluten.
If you have been diagnosed with or are being treated for celiac diseases or related conditions, always consult your doctor when implementing any kind of dietary change or supplement regime.
