The hydrogenated cottonseed oil is fine. And hydrogenated ingredients are fine... hydrogenated just means treated with or exposed to hydrogen--no gluten there.

Anything with natural flavors is questionable, so you have to check on the product.

hydrogenated is just not good for anyone anytime, not very healthy, but it does not have any gluten in it.

Hydrogenated oil, from any source, is not a source of gluten. However, hydrogenation changes the fat into trans fat, which has been shown by many studies to be detrimental to your health. The hydrogenation process hardens the oil, so it is used to make stick margerine and to give other foods a firmer texture.

Like MSG, it is something you may want to avoid, but it is gluten-free.

      Meniers and celiac are they related

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
