Are Gelatin And Glycerin Safe?

I recently started taking a COQ10 supplement and although I love the extra energy and focus it is providing, I also noticed I'm having very mild celiac symptoms. Today I put it together, wondering if the COQ10 might be at fault. The ingredients listed for the softgels include gelatin and glycerin, in addition to soy lecithin. I couldn't find on my lists of unsafe ingredients either gelatin or glycerin. Are they no-nos? If not, perhaps its the soy I'm reacting to. Appreciate any thoughts.

Hey Sue,

The gelatin and glycerin should not be a gluten issue. Perhaps, the soy.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      Your response on this matter is what I expect. You’ve had a similar episode years ago, but this one is lasting longer!

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?
