I don't believe it is safe for us.

I couldn't find it on any gluten-free lists, which leads me to believe it contains gluten.

A1 is NOT listed on any of the Gluten Free lists i have. this is so dissappointing... I even checked out the comparable Walmart Great Value brand version - doesn't say gluten free (how exciting is it that Great Value now lists gluten-free on the label!!!). I think wheat was listed in the ingredients. :(

I know Lea and Perrins Steak Sauce is gluten-free!

Although I think A1 is a kraft product, it should state clearly on the label if there is any wheat or barley in it.

I am a big Walmart shopper (I'm a poor child! LOL) and I used to buy alot of the Great Value brands until I heard to be careful with generics. Do you mean they actual say "gluten free" now or do they just show on the labels if it has wheat etc in it? This is great news! I had called Kraft's 800 number and asked them if A1 had gluten and they told me that the label will specify if it has wheat, etc. in it if it was in fact in there. I just bought some and didn't see any wheat items listed in the ingredients unless it is hidden (Kraft told me they no longer hide gluten ingredients and that they will list them). I hope it's safe. I love A1. Now I'm a little scared to try it....

As far as I know, A1 is gluten-free. It is a kraft product and there are no gluten sources listed on the label. I personally eat it fairly frequently and have never had a reaction.

Thank you for your replies - I didn't see anything suspicious on the ingredient list and I know you all say that Kraft is good about not hiding wheat ingredients - but I just wanted to make sure. My daughter loves A1 so I hate to take that away from her if I don't have to...

I'm not sure why there is so much confusion over A1. I've seen several postings lately that stated it was not gluten-free. It is a Kraft product, and there is no gluten on the label, so it is safe. I checked my own bottle last night too for the hell of it. I don't think many Kraft products seem to end up on gluten-free food lists--not b/c they aren't gluten-free, but b/c their policy is always to refer to the label, not to publish an official gluten-free food listing.

YES! they actually put GLUTEN FREE on the label! It's on their pudding mixes, sloppy joe sauce, a bunch of stuff. So exciting isnt it?? :)

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      I have been on supplementation for almost 11 months with no deficiencies showing up on blood work. So was just hoping to hear someone else’s story where it took longer to heal.

      Here’s the answer from the company 😊   Hi Emily,    Thank you for reaching out to us! We can confirm the Organic Protein + 50 Superfoods Powder is gluten free. The organic barley and wheatgrasses we use are harvested prior to jointing, before the grain forms and any gluten protein is present. Rest assured appropriate measures are taken to ensure our gluten free products comply with the FDA final rule to be labeled as gluten free, as claimed on the side-panel label. Our suppliers are required to verify each ingredient and in order to ensure that our gluten free products comply with the FDA requirements, our manufacturing facilities use the ELISA test method to confirm gluten levels are less than the standard limit of <20 ppm.    If you have allergy concerns about consuming the grasses, we recommend consulting further with your healthcare provider. I hope this information helps! Please let us know if you have other questions.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @kim-d! Recently revised guidelines or the "gluten challenge" recommends the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten for at least two weeks up until the day of the antibody test blood draw. 10g of gluten is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread. IMO, I would wait until you have time to do it right so as to remove all doubt as to whether or not your gluten consumption was adequate for long enough to ensure valid testing. In the meantime, focus on removing gluten from your diet and see how your symptoms improve (or not) as one piece of the diagnostic puzzle.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By kim-d · Posted

      Hello. I'm a 22 year old college student and I've had constant stomach problems since I was 14. Recently I noticed that my problems get worse when I eat more wheat. I tried to follow a gluten free diet, which didn't end up entirely gluten free, but I still had reduced my gluten consumption very much, and I felt a lot better. I also have fatigue, inability to gain any weight, iron deficiency, possible vitamin deficiencies, really bad memory and brain fog that increases by time, unexplainable muscle aches and tachycardia which all can possibly explained by celiac/NCGS.  I wasn't able to continue a completely gluten free diet as I am eating from my school and dorm's cafeteria and almost all food there have gluten so I was going very hungry. They do offer a gluten free menu with a report though. So I decided I should try getting a diagnosis if I can, especially after reading how it was much harder to do gluten challenge after quitting gluten for a while. I was able to get an appointment for next week, and started eating around 150gr of bread per day to be sure.  First 24 hours I didn't feel any worse so I was starting to doubt myself, but then bloating hit hard. It wasn't anything unbearable, but the problem is I have finals soon and I'm now realizing this is a really bad time to do this. I can't begin studying from pain distracting me. I'm thinking of cancelling the appointment and eat low gluten until exams are over.  I worry about one thing. Before I went low gluten, I was eating a lot of bread already for over a month, which is what clued me into gluten, and I only went low gluten for around 10 days before going high gluten again. I wasn't that worried about a false negative. But if I eat low gluten until my exams are over, it means over a month of low gluten, and I would need a lot more time eating high gluten later to get a correct result.  I'm not sure which one should I do, bear it until my appointment or cancel it and try again when I'm free later. And If I choose the second one, how long would I need to do the gluten challenge for a blood test?
