What You Should Know

As of the most recent test, performed on October 2, 2019:

This product was labeled Gluten Free
It was certified Gluten Free
According to its certification, it should contain less than 10 PPM of gluten

Based on the combined results of all tests, as of October 2, 2019:

This product appears to be gluten free at less than 3 PPM gluten, and in accordance with its labeling.
One Nima Sensor test has been performed. That test indicated the product was gluten free.
One GlutenTox Sticks Plus test has been performed. That test indicated the product contained less than 3 PPM of gluten.
Indications are that this product contains significantly less than the 10 PPM maximum gluten threshold that its certification requires. It is also well within the FDA's specifications for gluten-free-labeled food products.

Always Remember:

Manufacturers can change product ingredients without warning! Always check labels, including ingredient and allergy labeling! Don't assume that the information presented for a product on IITGF is always up-to-date!
Never assume that simply because it was gluten free the last time you checked, nothing has changed!
When purchasing food products make certain that you choose the correct one! Sometimes products will have different variations or flavors, and in some cases the packaging and/or labels can look very similar. Sometimes a gluten-free product will have a label similar to a gluten-containing product. This is one more reason to always check labels before buying!
The information presented here should be used for general guidance only, in combination with other gluten avoidance methods (such as reading labels)!
Simply because a test yields a particular result on IITGF does not necessarily mean that every instance of that product will be the same! Product ingredients and proportions can vary slightly from one package to another.

Gluten Test History:

No gluten was detected in 2 out of 2 tests

The Detectable Gluten Graph

The detectable gluten graph is presented on product pages to help give you a quick summary of the qualitative results for the product. A qualitative test is one in which no attempt is made to determine how much gluten is in the product. All that matters to a qualitative test is whether it sees gluten there or not. A qualitative test essentially provides a "yes" or "no" answer as to whether the test found gluten.

Because a qualitative test cannot determine how much gluten is in a product, it may give a result indicating that gluten was found in foods that actually contain very little gluten. This includes some foods that would normally be considered gluten-free under FDA regulations.

Some gluten sensitive individuals strive to avoid all gluten; even in extremely small quantities. If you fall into this category, the qualitative graph is one you should pay attention to, along with the 3 PPM graph. High percentages on these two graphs could be considered indications of consistently lower (possibly approaching non-existent) gluten content in the product.

On the other hand, if you feel you are okay with the possibility of having very small, trace amounts of gluten in a product, you should probably disregard the qualitative test graph, and instead focus on the 5, 10 and 20 PPM graphs. Remember that studies have shown that the majority of people with celiac disease experience no adverse effects from consuming foods containing less than 20 PPM of gluten.

Please keep in mind that the test results, along with any analysis, are provided for informational purposes only. Gluten testing is never 100% error free. As such, a small number of the test results presented may not be accurate. I strongly encourage you to make your dietary choices based on multiple criteria, and only after thorough research using multiple sources. “Is It Truly Gluten Free?” can certainly be one of those sources, but it should not be the only one.

20 PPM Test History Graph

The 3 PPM, 5 PPM, 10 PPM, and 20 PPM test analysis graphs reflect the results of what are called "quantitative" or "semi-quantitative" gluten tests. In a nutshell, these sorts of tests attempt to determine either exactly how much gluten a product contains (Quantitative), or they attempt to estimate whether the amount of gluten is above or below a certain level (Semi-quantitative).

[Not sure what PPM means? Click here.]

These graphs are presented on product pages to help give you some quick insight into how much gluten a product may contain.

The 20 PPM graph, specifically, represents tests that were performed with a sensitivity level of 20 PPM. Additionally, it also factors in results from other tests that definitively indicated gluten content either above or below 20 PPM. If a test indicated that gluten was below this level, then it is reflected on this graph by raising the percentage shown. On the other hand, if a test indicated that gluten was above this level, it is reflected on this graph by lowering the percentage.

It's important to remember that studies have shown that the majority of people with celiac disease can tolerate up to 20 PPM of gluten in foods without adverse effects, so if a food consistently tests gluten-free at this level, it's probably safe for most people with celiac disease.

Some gluten-sensitive individuals strive to avoid all gluten; even in very small quantities. If you fall into this category, then you should probably disregard the 20 PPM graph. Instead, you should be looking exclusively at two graphs on the product pages: the 3 PPM graph, and the detectable gluten graph. These two graphs represent the highest sensitivity tests performed on "Is It Truly Gluten Free?". High percentages on these two graphs could be considered indications of consistently lower (possibly approaching non-existent) gluten content in the product. I also strongly suggest, if you are striving to avoid as much gluten as possible, that you avoid foods that scored less than 100% on both of these graphs.

Please keep in mind that these test results, along with any analysis, are provided for informational purposes only. Gluten testing is never 100% error free. As such, a small number of these test results may not be accurate.

3 PPM Test History Graph

The 3 PPM, 5 PPM, 10 PPM, and 20 PPM test analysis graphs reflect the results of what are called quantitative or semi-quantitative gluten tests.

These graphs are presented on product pages to help give you some quick insight into how much gluten a product may contain.

The 3 PPM graph, specifically, represents tests that have been performed with a sensitivity level of 3 PPM (the highest sensitivity). Additionally, it also factors in results from other tests that definitively indicated gluten content either above or below 3 PPM. If a test indicated that gluten was below this level, then it is reflected on this graph by raising the percentage shown. On the other hand, if a test indicated that gluten was above this level, it is reflected on this graph by lowering the percentage.

It's important to remember that studies have shown that the majority of people with celiac disease can tolerate up to 20 PPM of gluten in foods without adverse effects. 3 PPM is below 20 PPM, so if a food tests gluten-free at 3 PPM, its gluten level is well below the 20 PPM level. Therefore, it's probably safe for most people.

5 PPM Test History Graph

The 3 PPM, 5 PPM, 10 PPM, and 20 PPM test analysis graphs reflect the results of what are called quantitative or semi-quantitative gluten tests.

The 5 PPM graph, specifically, represents tests that have been performed with a sensitivity level of 5 PPM. Additionally, it also factors in results from other tests that definitively indicated gluten content either above or below 5 PPM. If a test indicated that gluten was below this level, then it is reflected on this graph by raising the percentage. However, if a test indicated that gluten was above this level, it is reflected on this graph by lowering the percentage.

It's important to remember that studies have shown that the majority of people with celiac disease can tolerate up to 20 PPM of gluten in foods without adverse effects. 5 PPM is below 20 PPM, so if a food tests gluten-free at 5 PPM, its gluten level is well below the 20 PPM level. Therefore, it's probably safe for most people.
