Chapstick does not contain any gluten, but the manufacturer (like most mainstream manufacturers) does not test for possible contamination. That is about as good as it gets for most consumer products.

I use it without trouble on occasion. My wife goes through it like crazy, especially in the winter.

Where is the gluten?

I don't know, but I've sifted through some threads here where people have said they won't use it anymore?

It is a free world. People can do what they want. Some people get scared when the company won't make a gluten-free claim for legal reasons. I am not one of those people. In more than eleven years, I have yet to have a problem.

While we try to do our best and catch inaccurate information, it's not always possible. Some posts are old and are no longer accurate. And some people are inaccurate. :huh:

If you have any doubt, always contact the manufacturer direction. Chapstick is closed for the evening, but a phone number is on the link that I posted. :)

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
