I don't know if you guys use this stuff (I do and I love it) -- it works like coffee, except no caffeine and tons of vitamins and minerals (its actually pretty incredible for hangover as well )

Here is their response:

Thank you for your interest in Emer'gen-C.

In testing, we found that Raspberry and Mixed Berry Emer'gen-C may

contain wheat (some processes and extracts utilize wheat proteins),

however, ALL of the others are free from wheat, barley, and rye (and gluten).

Sincerely,

Its so convienent to put the packet in your bottled water and "go"... Plus, is sorta tasted like Crystal Light (but with vitamins and minerals)

Oh shoot, I think I just threw out a bunch of these...didn't even think to look at the engredients, lol. I just assumed they weren't okay for some reason.

just the word maltodextrin freaked me out, but it had tapioca in front of it so I just downed 2 tangerine packets.

I love Emergen-C! I work with children and I drink that stuff everyday during the winter so I won't get sick. I'm glad to hear the orange flavor is gluten free. That's my favorite.

Argh! Thanks so much for sharing that. I never would have thought there would be gluten in Emergen-C. Good thing I like the orange.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      By trents · Posted

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
