Gluten free wheat starch?

[ch88]

So I am trying to avoid corn. I think I react to corn badly.  I am trying to figure out if high fructose corn syrup is considered safe on a corn free diet.  High fructose corn syrup is made by separating corn starch from the corn zein. I am not sure if trace amounts still remain or there may be other ingredients is soda or candy that are made from corn. 

I came across an article which I found interesting. I did realize that food that contains wheat starch can now be labeled gluten free. It still has to have wheat starch listed in the ingredients though. I am really glad it still has to be labeled in the ingredients though.

"In Europe the standard for Codex wheat starch is 200 ppm gluten or less, meaning it must be further diluted during manufacturing to give a final product that tests safely below 20 ppm. According to the FDA, this will also be acceptable for products in the United States “as long as the final food product contains less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten.”

I still would not touch it....its bloody wheat and my body thinks the stuff is poison/foreign invaders.
Corn..I have a bad corn allergy, gotten worse over the years...used to be only consumed forms...but I notice it reacts to skin contact now. I know corn syrup will give me a rash/itchy skin, happens with soda spills and secondary contact....On the other hand sometimes something with maltodextrin or modified food starch from corn has not triggered a reaction and some times does.
