Scotch Tape?

Are there any gluten concerns with any of the tapes?

No problem that I know of. The adhesive on tape is not a wheat glue.

I know sometimes stickers can be a problem. Some are fine though. I wouldn't be overly concerned about the tape though.

stickers can be a problem? how do i know which ones are a problem? My daughter is 2 and she gets stickers from everyone....at the doctor's office, the bank, her relatives. yikes. I had no idea they were a problem. :huh:

I really don't think that your basic peel-off type sticker is ever a problem. The old type sticker that you lick, like a stamp, possibly could be. I wouldn't worry.

I'm not positive but I think envelopes are something to avoid. I usually just use scotch tape to seal the envelopes.

I think people have checked with a number of envelope-making companies and the glue has been gluten-free, nonetheless, I agree that there's no point in licking when you can tape instead or dampen with a sponge, etc.

Envelopes can contain gluten. I just get someone else to do it. The only time I ever really need to lick an envelope is at the bank, but some of the banks around here are getting lick free envelopes for depositing money. So much better B)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.
