Not knowing exactly which package you were looking at, I went to their website and some list wheat and some don't. If one is listing wheat but still says safe for celiacs, it cold be a ppm threshold.

Also, just because it calls out milk (or milk proteins) doesn't mean it is NOT safe for celiacs . . . Not all celiacs need to go dairy free.

"Some ingredients can be derived from wheat or barley but are safe for people with Coeliac disease. This is because they are highly processed and the gluten content is negligible."

That quote is from the page at the URL given. I'm not advocating that anyone knowingly eat any amount. The question I'm answering is why they say it, not that they are correct in saying.

Monosodium glutamate(MSG) does not usually contain gluten if teh product is made in the US. MSG is not wheat(it throws you off with the glutamate).

Call/email the company if you are unsure.

Sorry...didn't catch teh part that says their MSG is from wheat....that as a pervious poster said could be a parts per million situation. Where there MSG falls under a certain PPM amount and is there for "safe" although I wouldn't eat it if it said that.

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any kind of hidden glue? Help!

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors.  Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps.  I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage (back strain); I had been sitting down in a car for too long and wearing a tight belt (I have pudendal nerve issues and sacroiliac issues and this exacerbates the pain), and I had bloating and burning pain in my colon caused by eating too much soy, latte and caffeine, I guess putting further pressure in the lower abdomen.  I had this same pain prior to my diagnosis and a couple of years post-diagnosis, I'd quite forgotten how unpleasant it was.

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By cristiana · Posted

      HI @Kirbyqueen That's great news your insurance will be kicking in soon.  Sorry to see that you have been dealing with this for six months now, but I do hope you have managed to find some relief with some of the suggestions in the meantime. Perhaps come back and let us know what the doctor says. Cristiana

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?
