Attention! Rainbow Light Prenatal Is Not Gluten Free

[tiffjake]

Someone here recomended Rainbow Light Prenatal Vitamins. I got a bottle, and on the back, in VERY small print, it lists Wheat Grass (300 mg) and Barley Grass (300 mg). I know some people consider wheat grass to be gluten free, but there was a recent article about how wheat grass may contain gluten, and should be avoided (I think it was in Living Without). I think it would be better to be safe than sorry! The bottle I got was Complete Prenatal System, by Rainbow Light.

Please share this info! I don't know if they changed their formula, and I don't want someone to pick it up and just trust it because they are used to it!!!!

Thanks for sharing the info. Those are probably good things to check for in most of Rainbow Light's vitamins. They've got a lot of gluten free stuff, but they put wheat grass and barley grass in a few items.

I'm sorry about your vitamins Tiffany.

I use Freeda prenatals. They have a whole range of different vitamins.

One Source prenatals are gluten free. I think you can only get them at Wal-mart. They were relatively inexpensive and they were labeled gluten free right on the bottle.

I don't think Rainbow Light Prenatals contain gluten. They say they are gluten-free on the box and I don't see any of the ingredients you are worried about on my package. Are you taking the Rainbow light "Prenatal One" multivitamin?

I don't remember which one it was, and I took it back to Whole Foods, so I don't have the bottle, but I had it next to the computer screen when I was typing the post. I know it was Rainbow Light, and it was the prenatal. I remember that they wanted me to take SEVERAL a day, so I don't think it was a "one" multi. Sorry I don't still have the bottle!!! I just remember reading the label, and after all of the vitamins, and the "extra stuff", there was a spot for wheat and barley. It was in the right hand side, at the very bottom.

Thats ok! I'm fine. I really only took a couple (I can never remember to take those pesky vitamins!). I got GNC's again. I used to use those, and switch, and I just went back. They say gluten free right on the label, along with suger free, soy free, dairy free, etc. Works for me!
