Are These Ingredients Safe?

These ingredients are from Kinder Schoko-bons. I can't see anything obvious in the ingredients. But I'm not yet an expert and don't know all the names to look out for.

Ingredients: whole milk chocolate 50% (sugar, whole milk powder, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, emulsifier soy lecithin, vanilla), sugar, skimmed milk powder, vegetable fat, hazelnuts (5.8%), butter fat, bitter sweet chocolate (sugar, cocoa mass, cocoa butter, emulsifier soy lecithin, vanilla), glazing agent: gummiarabicum, shellac; glucose syrup, emulsifier soy lecithin, aroma.

Are any of those a problem? I realise there are CC issues regardless. But what about the ingredients, are they ok?

Have you tried Googling it? It's a little tougher since a couple of those ingredients are actually German. If you're a German speaker, I found this page which might help:

I'm pretty sure it says everything on that list is gluten-free.

Whenever I'm not sure, I Google the name of the product with "gluten" after it.

Hey I did try that. Thats my usual method too. Or usually Product name gluten free. In this case I couldn't find a definitive answer.

Thanks for the reply. I've got a German friend, he might be able to help!

      Thank you for explaining! This makes sense.

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
