<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> While we're on the subject of B-6, I would like to add that one of its documented benefits is to help reduce or even eliminate the symptoms of morning sickness. Pregnant celiac moms have enough problems without feeling nauseous and throwing up a lot, so I would like to bring this to the attention of the list members. I was nauseous (and miserable) into my seventh month with my first child; I did some research when it started again with the second, and checked with my OB/GYN who okayed increased doses of B-6. (He said it used to be a component of a regularly prescribed morning sickness drug, but that the other component turned out to have side effects, and the B-6 was apparently too cheap for the drug company to continue putting into a pill for prescriptive uses!) Though I still experienced mild nausea after starting with B-6, it was much more tolerable and went away earlier in the pregnancy. Many months ago on the list, one of our members posted a plea for help with morning sickness, and the B-6 helped her (hope she has a healthy baby by now!). If you're not pregnant (fellas <g>) just keep this information in your mental file to help women you know who have problems with morning sickness! -- Linda Blanchard http://www.ccgs.com celiac books by mail
