Hi all!
Does anyone know if when "mixed tocopherols" are listed as an ingredient, which I think is Vit E, if they are necessarily derived from wheat germ? Waiting to hear back from a company on this, but I think I read something somewhere that said this was from wheat germ. I hope not 'cause I've probably glutened myself with SunGold Sunbutter! Thanks for any help!

I don't know about that, but I can tell you that when I was taking mixed tocopherols as a supplement, I found them ineffective, while the d-alpha ones were effective.
Nothing

Vitamin E can be derived from soy as well... you have to ask the manufacturer to be sure.

And took them clean away.

Thank you both! They just called me to let me know it's derived from soy. (another thing I'm avoiding) But I'm hoping a trace amount won't bother me. The woman from SunGold foods was VERY kind and listened closely to what I told her about the nature of celiac and gluten intolerance. She said she was very happy to research it because it's something she really needs to know about. So, Yay!!!!!
