Celiac: Anyone have any experience with malabsorption?

I do not have celiac, but SIBO and diarrhea have made it difficult to keep my vitamin D level up. I take a high dose and monitor results through the Grassroots group .
Have you tried any of the Bari Melts that are used for people who have had gastric bypass surgery and malabsorb vitamins. I tried a calcium/magnesium one looking for a way to absorb magnesium without triggering diarrhea. Sublingual absorption lets you bypass the stomach. I do that for vitamin B also because I get a stomachache from vitamin B.

hi @anniez... Thanks for your comments. Fortunately diarrhea is not a problem for me unless I mistakenly eat something loaded with gluten. I do eat out fairly often so I ask a lot of questions of waiters and Chefs. I think I must absorb some amount of the calcium I take by mouth as my bone density test have shown slight improvement over the last couple years. The improvement however may be due to the twice a year Prolia injection I get. Good luck to you and keep up the work on trying to find the right combination of things that will help us be healthy and happy.
