I just got a free sample of this stuff, and I think it takes gall to call it gluten-free. Says so right on the bottle, under "wheat dextrin" and 10ppm gluten. No idea if 10ppm will set me off, but I don't think I'll do the experiment.

Expanding on my original post, do I recall wheat is broken down to wheat dextrin and that is considered safe for Celiacs to consume?

...hum, perhaps it was Irish Dave that posted information on "wheat dextrin". Anyone?

Trust your instincts and stay away. What if we used several products in a day that had low levels of gluten? I have enough problems with accidental contamination. I don't need something I'm taking intentionally to push me over the limit.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
