Definitive List of Additives that come from Wheat/Gluten Source?

15 Replies

Hi

I'm checking if anyone has a definitive list/source of information as to all the food additives that do/may come from a wheat/gluten source or might present a risk to those who are 'highly sensitive' to gluten (i.e. need 0ppm).

To date, my knowledge on this is:

- Glucose (when source non-specified)

- Fructose (when source non-specified)

- Maltodextrin

- Starch (when source non-specified)

- Barley Malt

- Yeast (when source non-specified)

- Potassium Sorbate

- Ascorbic Acid (when source non-specified)

- Vitamin E (if wheatgerm sourced)

- Caramel colour (E150) *

- Citric acid*

- Mannitol*

- HVP*

- TVP*

- Soy sauce*

- Vegetable gum*

- Teriyaki sauce*

- Surimi*

- Triticale*

- Tritium*

- Avena sativa (oats, not labelled GF)*

- Beta glucan (frequently derived from wheat)*

- Colloidal oatmeal*

- Dextrin palmitate (starch, possibly gluten-based)*

- Hordeum vulgare (barley)*

- Hydrolyzed vegetable protein (may contain wheat)*

- Hydrolyzed wheat protein*

- Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl (hydrolyzed wheat protein)*

- Secale cereale (rye)*

- Stearyl dimonium hydroxypropyl (hydrolyzed wheat protein)*

- Triticum vulgare (wheat)*

- Vegetable protein (may contain wheat, barley, rye and/or oats)*

Anything else?

Hi Mise

Perhaps Hidden might have that kind of information.

It seems to be difficult to find any information, but this might help:

I think you've missed the mark on the question. The person posting is looking for information on additives - you've just posted a link to a bakery company's website that gives info on grains/gluten free grains.

I thought that the relevance of additives was that they might be allergens - and the link is about additive allergens.

Yes - I know that gluten occurs naturally in wheat etc, and is not an additive.

in reply to S11m

No, it's just a link to a bakery's page listing a load of non-gluten allergens and then one paragraph about gluten-free option. It's actually not a very helpful weblink and I'm surprised that bakery could not expand on the info.

I appreciate all links that have been provided. It's good to have additional info.

Caramel and cooking oil but we all react to different foods.

in reply to FFNick

Ah, caramel. Thank you.

Which cooking oils are an issue?

Hey sorry I meant to reply but have been busy so here’s some more as citric acid can be a wheat derivative so is mannitol which’s also used as a baby laxative and this is in many supermarket vitamins multivitamins and supplements.

Citric acid

Mannitol

HVP

TVP

Soy sauce

Vegetable gum

Teriyaki sauce

Surimi

Triticale

Tritium

I hope this helps as it’s great to know where traces of wheat and gluten can be.

Jerry 😊

Hi Jerry. Many thanks for this list. That is excellent, and very comprehensive. I'm going to list this in the original post above as does not seem to be anywhere really online that provides a list of hidden glutens. Thank you again.

Hi Hidden thank you this is a valuable resource and again apologies for the delay as it is important to me keeping all coeliac safe.

Jerry.

Don't worry, we are living in strange times at moment, so just glad you're well and healthy.

I rely on the info at coeliac.org.uk - they are pretty comprehensive. I have been diagnosed as coeliac for just over a year, and I have found them very good on almost everything I have needed to find out about. Well worth the subscription!

Found these on Catryna's post:

For those of us with a Celiac skin disorder called Dermatitis Herpetiformis it's also important to make sure we are not being glutened by topicals that have gluten. Some of these ingredients can be found in shampoos and conditioners. Here is a list;

Avena sativa (oats)

Beta glucan (frequently derived from wheat)

Colloidal oatmeal

Dextrin palmitate (starch, possibly gluten-based)

Vitamin E (frequently derived from wheat)

Hordeum vulgare (barley)

Hydrolyzed vegetable protein (may contain wheat)

Hydrolyzed wheat protein

Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl (hydrolyzed wheat protein)

Malt extract (usually barley)

Secale cereale (rye)

Stearyl dimonium hydroxypropyl (hydrolyzed wheat protein)

Triticum vulgare (wheat)

Vegetable protein (may contain wheat, barley, rye and/or oats)

Wheat germ oil
