I was wondering if someone could give me the quick lowdown on natural flavors. Do they contain gluten or is it one of those things where if its made here it is ok, or certain types of products its ok? Im really confused!! Thanks so much!!!

In theory, you should call to check on it. I've almost never heard of it containing anything other than wheat, and now that wheat has to be labled, it hardly pops up as a problem, but it can happen, so it may well be worth your time to call on.

Unless you're dealing with a company known to disclose gluten, you need to call and ask :)

Boy do I feel dumb. Lol. I am the strictest person when it comes to being gluten free. How did this 'natural flavors' thing slip by me? Lol. It seems to be in EVERYTHING. I have never had ANY celiac symptoms, so if I get glutened, I wouldnt know. So I try to be extra strict. Blah. I have a lot of phone calls to make now.

Many of the products you already use probably come from companies that have gluten-disclosing policies.

Ever since I found out that two of my (formerly) favorite teas, with "natural flavors," contain gluten, I check.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
