A Hidden Source of Gluten You May Not Consider

OK- you're being a "good" Celiac. Following all the rules. Reading your labels. Not cheating on your gluten free diet. Bravo! Keep it up!!
However, don't let your guard down just yet. There is something other than food that you may not have considered as a potential source of gluten...Medication.
"Really?" you may say..."does it ever end?". Yes, this too you must be vigilant in. Medications often contain fillers to deliver the active ingredient. These fillers are made of starches, and can come from a variety of sources- including wheat.
Though you may be feeling insecure again with this news- that even medicine may may you ill (when it is supposed to make you feel better not worse), don't panic just yet. There are resources out there to help you navigate your way through this too.
