Mega Foods Vitamins Corn Free?

Just wanted to share some promising information I received from Mega Foods. I asked them if their C Complex vitamin and B12 were also corn free (in addition to dairy, gluten and soy free). Here is their answer. I have not tried it yet so I can't confirm that there is no cross contamination.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. Our Plant Cellulose is sourced from pine, and our vegetable lubricant is sourced from palm oil. The silica is not a corn-derived ingredient. With that being said, while there is no added corn in our products, we do not test for it to ensure no trace allergens are present.

Please let me know if there is anything else that I can help you with.

Best ,

      @Rebeccaj, You may choose to get tested to see if you have an allergy to wheat.  That's a different type of immune response to wheat than Celiac Disease.  It's possible to have both.  You may need an Epipen. A histamine release in the sinuses upon being exposed to wheat in wheat allergy can cause a headache.    Talk to your doctor about wheat allergy testing.

      Although sensitivity to gluten varies between individuals, multiple research studies suggest that consuming up to 10 mg of gluten a day is safe for most people with coeliac disease. Wheat flour contains approximately 10% gluten by weight, so this is equivalent to 100 mg of flour, or a piece of wheat bread the size of a small pea. There is a case report of farmers with coeliac disease developing symptoms from inhaling gluten containing dust from cattle feed but that is an extreme example and they were exposed to very high concentrations of airborne gluten over a long period of time. In a domestic situation, unless someone is making dough and putting a lot fo flour into the air, I don't think you will get significant airborne exposure. The thing to watch out for is making sure work surfaces, cutlery and utensils are clean. If you have to share a toaster, get some toasting pouches.

      You might look into wearing an N95 mask when others are creating baked goods with wheat flour in your environment.

      @trents thank you for that information. My parents feel that cooking flour in toaster isn't a thing as its already cooked product before made? but Airbourne particles is my fear. Like I have had symptoms from 6 meters away had to leave massive migraine.
