After having severe dry eyes for years, I finally have my answer! I saw several doctors but none of them mentioned Vit. A. They all wanted me to take expensive prescription drops that made my eyes burn like fire! Vitamin A is fat soluble which is only one of the vitamins celiacs have trouble absorbing. I was desperate and had 24,000 Beta Carotene that we take if we are around a sick person. My eyes felt so much better! I took 3 days and then thought I should have the blood level checked. It was a great number: 77. Normal is 40-100. So, the level is good and I felt at least 90% better! I read that a lot of celiacs need 10,000 per day so I am taking that nearly every day. I will get retested later in the fall when I recheck Vit.D. The doctors that know about nutrition are saying low Vit. D can lead to dementia as well as many other problems. It is good to test it in the fall before all the dangerous germs hit people.
