Like glazed doughnuts? That's usually powdered sugar, water and flavoring like lemon or vanilla. Or, a glaze can be thinned out jelly.

What is it on?

Food glazes are additives that provide a protective coating and/or shiny appearance to foods. Generally they are based on a wax like beeswax or some other crystaline wax. Your best bet is to contact the vitamin manufacturer to determine if the product is safe to consume.

Usually vitamins that are coated don't really break down as well. So they don't absorb into your body very well and you don't get as much benefit from them compared to vitamins that are not coated.

Hmmm, I wonder if this is what irritates my gut.

I am not sure but I think some food glaze has gluten. I had a very definite reaction to some Trader Joe's chocolates and the only ingredient it could have been was the food glaze. I don't react to the non-shiny chocolates. I called their 1-800 number and they said the chocolates did have gluten. There was no other place for it to come from.

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
