Maltodextrin

My lists said MaltoDextrin is gluten-free, but I read on the forum that someone was saying it is not, this stuff is in everything and we have been giving foods with it to my son. Any thoughts?

Does anyone eat at Donatos? They make a low carb pizza made of soy, I emailed them to find out some info but they were pretty non-descript with it, has anyone ever checked this out?

Maltodextrin in the US is safe unless it states on the label. This is for all companies..not just some...it's a rule in the US.

It is different with medications though so you have to check with that but as for food it will be safe unless stated :D

I saw that someone had a reaction to it while taking it in a medication, thanks that is good news!

Checked with my health food store guy who is a celiac and he checked on the internet and there was a controversy when he googled it. It can be made of wheat, corn or rice, so it is something to be wary of. You would have to call the manufacturer of the maltodexitrim in that product to be sure of what it is made of.

It can be made of things other then corn BUT in the US they have a rule they MUST follow and they will put on the label if it is derived from wheat :D

In the medications that rule is different but Maltodextrin in the US with food is safe unless stated.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
