The great majority of gastric bypass patients become vitamin ADEK deficient as well. I wonder if the wheat and grains they eat exacerbate their already compromised vitamin/nutritional states?Dr. B Ghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15451872961651116061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780103924890350442.post-21118343402800546412008-07-10T22:46:00.000-07:002008-07-10T22:46:00.000-07:00Thanks G. Celiac definitely impacts the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. There was also that study I came across a while back showing that wheat bran increases serum D turnover... Just wondering if I could get some mechanism. I guess there's not much money in bashing wheat.Stephanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09218114625524777250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780103924890350442.post-91983190988919421512008-07-10T22:07:00.000-07:002008-07-10T22:07:00.000-07:00Peter does the topic better justice than I.<BR/><BR/>http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2008/01/wheat-and-lactase.html<BR/><BR/>I think I've seen also some references to the effect that leaky gut from celiac/silent-celiac reduces GI absorption of fat-soluble vitamins incl Vitamin D (if consuming foods like cod liver oil, liver, lard, etc).<BR/><BR/>Hope that is helpful!Dr. B Ghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15451872961651116061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780103924890350442.post-62870022878410927442008-07-10T09:46:00.000-07:002008-07-10T09:46:00.000-07:00Hi G,<BR/><BR/> I just read your comment on Dr. Davis' blog about grains deranging vitamin D conversion. Do you have references for that? I'd be interested in checking them out.
