Sorry for all the questions, i am trying to search these things before posting- i am getting OVERWHELMED by all of this....going through my med cabinet- because that was a small starting point and its taken hours today and i am not half way finished...thinking of buying that scanner thing, but seriously want to be able to read labels...my eyes hurt from all the teensy little words....

thanks in advance

I don't think it contains gluten.

I know that it is used in Vance's dairi free and that is gluten free.

Hopefully someone else will jump in here.

I hate to confuse the issue, but isn't maltodextrin gluten-free in foods, but possibly not gluten-free when it's in medications and supplements? :unsure::unsure: (someone correct me if I"m wrong)

Maltdextrin, is the US is usually corn based, and therefore gluten free. But this is not the case for Canadians.

Actually, in Canada it is almost invariably corn based as well. No worries up here in the frozen North.

In the US it has to be labeled if it has a wheat base. I have only seen two labels that had the base listed as wheat. (Health Valley soup)

      Thank you for the advice. I’ve actually never checked for nutritional deficiencies, but for as long as I can remember, I’ve always taken vitamin and mineral supplements — otherwise my symptoms get worse. This week I stopped eating gluten to confirm whether my symptoms are really caused by it. Starting next week, I’ll reintroduce gluten — it’s sad to go back to how I was before — but at least I’ll be able to take the necessary tests properly. I think the diagnostic process will be long, but at least I’m happy that I finally decided to address this doubt I’ve had for years.

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!
