I used to be a VP at a food company, and I'll tell you that we used to reply to any/all emails and phone calls.

With that said, ALWAYS play it safe and call the manufacturer. Ask them specifically about a product. Sometime, they may have an item that contains wheat and they will subsequently suggest an alternative product. We used to do it all of the time as well.

When in doubt, check it out!

I agree.

Before I went gluten free, I had tried some Muscletech products with bad results. They should put more money into better quality products than their advertisement regime. Most consumers get sucked into the hype and claims printed on the containers from big companies like BSN and Muscletech.

Anyways, typically Mass Gainers will almost always contain gluten so I would try to make my own if I were you. For example:

NOW Whey Protein Isolate + NOW Carbo Gain + Creatine Monohydrate (I recommend Millennium Pure Creatine German Grade)

      Welcome to the forum, @LookingForAnswers101, I had similar experiences with boil outbreaks in the same areas.  Mine was caused by Candida Albicans and eating a diet too high in sugar and simple carbohydrates.   Candida is a yeast infection, so the antibacterial wash is not going to help.  I had to change my diet to a Paleo diet before it went away.  If I consume high levels of sugar or other simple carbohydrates (rice, corn, dairy, etc.), boils would occur at pressure points like the groin and back of the legs.  Your doctor might be able to prescribe an antifungal medication, but some of those antifungal medications destroy thiamine.  Thiamine is needed to keep fungal and bacterial infections in check.  I took Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, but TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) will work, too.   Thiamine, and the other B vitamins, especially Niacin and Biotin, along with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D will help keep skin healthy.  Be sure to address these nutritional deficiencies that occur with Celiac! Ask your doctor to rule out autoimmune hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and Human Papilloma virus, too.   Hang in there!  You'll get over this rocky patch of the journey!  Best wishes!

      As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.

      By the way, have you been diagnosed with celiac disease, and if so, are you on a 100% gluten-free diet?

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.
