Like glazed doughnuts? That's usually powdered sugar, water and flavoring like lemon or vanilla. Or, a glaze can be thinned out jelly.

What is it on?

Vitamins

Food glazes are additives that provide a protective coating and/or shiny appearance to foods. Generally they are based on a wax like beeswax or some other crystaline wax. Your best bet is to contact the vitamin manufacturer to determine if the product is safe to consume.

Usually vitamins that are coated don't really break down as well. So they don't absorb into your body very well and you don't get as much benefit from them compared to vitamins that are not coated.

Hmmm, I wonder if this is what irritates my gut.

I am not sure but I think some food glaze has gluten. I had a very definite reaction to some Trader Joe's chocolates and the only ingredient it could have been was the food glaze. I don't react to the non-shiny chocolates. I called their 1-800 number and they said the chocolates did have gluten. There was no other place for it to come from.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      By RMJ · Posted

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
