Wheat?

Can someone tell me what is in these vitamins (b complex with C and Zinc by nature's bounty) that is the wheat factor?

ingredients: vegetable cellulose, FD&C Yellow No. 5 Lake, FD&C Yellow 6 Lake, Silica, Titanium, Dioxide Color Vegetable Magnesium Stearate, Vegetable Stearic Acid.

At then bottom it says contains wheat and soy, I don't know what about them is the wheat and now I'm just lost not know what the wheat is here.

Thanks :)

It could be the vegetable cellulose - they may have made that from wheat. You may have to call them. Simplest thing is to just not use any product that says it contains wheat.

Vegetable cellulose is in my other vitamin labled No Gluten, No Wheat, No Soy so it must be something else here.

I'm not going to use them because it says 'contains wheat', but I used one of their other vitamins without getting sick, which is something that is hard to do with me.

I was just more curious than anything what it would be!

Vegetable cellulose can come from various sources. "Vegetable" is a weasel word.

I agree!

At least, they have labeled it: "contains wheat". That is always helpful.

I suggest you do not use them. But if you cannot return them, put them in a food pantry donation. They can always use vitamins.

Country Life vitamins are Certified G F and they are not very expensive.

I am not going back to them at all!! My mom will gladly use the vitamins so no worries (she has no special diet concerns).

I will have to try country life. I have a history of having a difficult time of digesting vitamins and get terrible stomach aches and nausea. I am mainly taking Vit-a-fusion vitamins without any issues, but was looking for a cheaper alternative if possible. I am taking 7 different vitamins so it can get expensive! Even if I can save two and half dollars per bottle that's seventeen dollars over them all!

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
