Peptide Bonded Glutamine

Does whey that contains peptide bonded glutamine usually list this specifically in the ingredients? I am currently using ON 100% Gold Standard whey and it lists "whey peptides" in the ingredients along with Over 4 grams of Glutamine & Precursors and was just wondering if this has any correlation?

I'm thinking of switching to EAS or Biochem.

Thanks for any help guys.

I don't know, but glutamine is not a gluten ingredient.

Thanks anyways everybody.

Basically I just wanted to know if "peptide bonded glutamine" would show up in the ingredient list because it is derived from wheat. I have had no issues with ON so I guess it's safe.

I've seen concern about glutamine before in various threads... why is that? I honestly have no idea why this would be related to wheat in terms of food production. Glutamine is just another amino acid. Peptide bonds are the general bonds between amino acids in a polypeptide chain.

The epitope (protein region) that your antibodies bind to that starts the inflammation reaction in your intestines is a polypeptide containing a lot of proline and glutamine amino acids. Just glutamine would not cause a reaction but I suppose that if the right sequence of amino acids were attached to the glutamine, it just might. I think that is where the concern comes from.

L-glutamine is a gluten free ingredient. Glutamine peptides can be, and usually are, sourced from wheat. And yes, they should be listed on the label as such, but I would always check with the manufacturer. BSN for example only recently started listing allergens, so if you have an older container it may not be listed.

      gluten-free stool softener needed for after surgery

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A typical CYA response--since they don't label it that way they don't test for gluten, thus can't guarantee it's gluten-free, even though no gluten ingredients are used in the product.

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I understand your immense frustration after 17 years of excellent management; it's incredibly disorienting to have your numbers spike without a clear cause or physical symptoms. Given your thorough investigation, the Crunchmaster crackers are a very plausible culprit, despite their certification. Certification ensures gluten is below 20ppm, but if you are consuming them daily, even that tiny amount could theoretically accumulate over time to cause an immune response (elevated IgG) without triggering your acute symptomatic response (which is often IgA-mediated). Since your son, the perfect control subject, doesn't eat them, this is an excellent hypothesis to test. I would recommend a strict elimination trial: remove the crackers completely for 4-6 weeks and then re-test your IgG levels. If the numbers drop significantly, you have your answer. Other less obvious sources to consider if the crackers aren't to blame include any other new packaged goods (spices, nuts, chocolate, supplements), a change in the recipe of a trusted product, or even lipstick or toothpaste. Your methodical approach is exactly what will solve this mystery.

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

      By Jenny (AZ via TX) · Posted

      When using daily med to look up prescriptions, is there a way to filter ingredients such as gluten or wheat?  I usually take only a couple of drugs but since I’m having surgery, I have 5 new ones to take for a short time post-op. Thanks!   For non prescription drugs, Walgreens has a line called Free&Pure that has gluten free written on the packaging if anyone is interested.

      Dr. Jean Duane published a book on Celiac.com, and although all chapters are worth reading, there are some that cover this perfectly. Here is the link to the 1st chapter: This chapter and others cover this topic well:

      I called Colace to see what they would say. They cannot guarantee the products are gluten free.  No gluten ingredients but mentioned ingredients from pigs.  I did explain the pig part wasn’t the issue, just gluten.  I had asked about Colace clear as I had read that one was gluten free.
