What The Heck Is Corn Gluten?

:unsure::unsure: Can anyone tell me what Corn Gluten is? And since it says gluten, is it really gluten? Also I am wondering about modified corn starch, is that safe?

Corn gluten is a corn protein. It is NOT the kind of gluten that hurts us. It is considered safe for a gluten free diet. All corn products are safe as long as they don't contain anything made from wheat, rye, barley and oats.

Gluten is a broad term for the protein. Although we always refer to gluten as the bad gluten (wheat, rye, barley, etc.), technically, there are safe glutens for us.

Scientifically, the protein found in grains is called gluten. So ANY protein in ANY grain is generically referred to as gluten. With respect to celiac disease, however, we often use the word gluten to refer only to the protein in wheat, barley, rye, and oats. It's a matter of context.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
