Glutens are naturally-occurring proteins found in grains such as wheat, rye,
barley, and oats, but are not found in corn. The primary source of starch in
our formulations is corn. Relatively small amounts of other materials used in
our formulations may contain starch from other sources (e.g. potato, rice).
