Iron-tek Essential Protein Warning


cultureslayer

Recommended Posts

Iron-Tek states on their website and the side of the package that all flavors of their essential protein are gluten free. The cookies and cream flavor contains COOKIES that are made with wheat flour. The wheat flour is on the ingredient list right beside the gluten free statement! I couldn't find an ingredient list online anywhere, just the gluten-free statement.

I've emailed them and will post their response. I bought the powder online so it will be interesting to see if Iron-tek will try to make this right (sending it back isn't an option unless shipping is on their coin, I'd spend as much exchanging as buying it). Hopefully they'll send me a flavor that's actually gluten free.

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.

      Hello, @jadeceoliacuk, Has your son been tested for nutritional deficiencies?  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of essential nutrients which can result in nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.   I would find a nutritionist more knowledgeable about Celiac and ASD, before taking herbal supplements that don't contain essential vitamins. Interesting Reading: Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/   Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Mitochondria, and Nutrient Deficiencies https://hormonesmatter.com/autistic-spectrum-disorder-asd-mitochondria-nutrients/   Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/ Keep us posted on your progress!
