    I think that you are confused between MALT and MALTODEXTRIN. Maltodextrin, which in the US is generally derived from corn. If it is not corn, it by law will be listed as "maltodextrin (wheat) on the ingredients disclosure or it will be listed in the allergen warning. It is not necessarily true for outside the US> Malt is NOT gluten free. ...

    Welcome, An endoscopy exams MAY see some damage to the villi or scalloping of the intestines which would indication Celiac.

    Through Celiac blood screening and an endoscopy/biopsy testing Celiac Disease can be ruled in, but not ruled out. There are no false positives, only false negatives. Welcome to the Club!
