What Food Colorings If Any Contain Gluten?

[nobeer4me]

Hi all,

I thought I remember reading that red 40 lake had gluten as wel as some yellow food colorings.

Does any one have a list of food colorings we should avoid?

Thanks,

Mike.

Do you have the forbidden list of foods and ingredients from this site? That would definitely help you as far as your question goes.

I have some gluten free (on the label it says gluten free) gummy worms with it in there, so I think it's okay, if however it's not, that could really explain my mystery glutening.

I can't remember ever finding food coloring with gluten.

Thanks.

I don't know of any food coloring that has gluten in it.

Let's hope it stays that way...

The only thing I could think of was some of the creamier food colorings, found in cake decorating stores that MIGHT containg gluten as a thickener, but I haven't verified that, and I use the standard food coloring found in the grocery store. As far as colors already added to products, I am not aware of any containing gluten.

I read an article that was from a Celiac person's perspective on food additives. They mentioned a yellow food coloring had made them sick (in a yellow and blue make green colored food situation) and verified it was gluten from the label on the yellow food color.

I personally have not found gluten in any food color.

I was looking through my old vitamins..just a multi..yeah yellow coloring..but it contains soy according to the label..so I used to gain weight from these, never knowing I am not only Gluten sensitive, but I have Hashimoto’s..I tend to take only the vitamins I need, gluten free..feel much better, and of course foods give vitamins..But by going gluten free, it has been better..problem now, products saying “ gluten free” still have hidden gluten..My antibodies are up again and I basically can figure out exactly what went wrong to correct it...
