Is Msg Safe?

[Heidi Kelly]

Hi there! I have been gluten free for 3 months now and just had my celiac panel run again (want to have another baby) and my gliadins have jumped from 22 (when I was eating gluten) to 45. I am assuming I am getting it from some hidden source and I just found out that the Ranch Dressing I buy from a local restuarant (it does not have an ingredient list) has MSG in it, Does MSG contain gluten?

Thanks!!

If you are eating something without knowing what is in it, you are not taking enough precautions to be 100% gluten free. In order to be gluten free, you must know the ingredients of everything you eat, every single time you put something in your mouth, and take precautions against cross contamination.

I hope you figure it out.....Good luck!!!!!

MSG is gluten free but it bothers a lot of people. I personally do not get any symptoms from it but I only eat minimal amounts of it. It is not something I consume a lot of. You should do a search on this site for it, it is a very interesting topic and after reading the material you will be able to better understand MSG. I learned a lot about it that I never knew before.

Good Luck

MSG is gluten free but it is really bad for you

I would also agree that if you're eating things and just now looking into the ingredients, you're almost certainly getting gluten somewhere. Check things out before you eat them.
