EmayPA Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Hi all, Been away for a little bit, lurking here and there, but not straying too far off the road after some initial over-indulging in non-gluten analogues of gluten-y things. I've read here a number of times that "natural flavors" in ingredients lists are fine, but then I've been reading on gluten-free sites that they are often gluten-derived. Is this something to be really concerned about? I'm going to start avoiding them myself since I keep having symptoms (usually "stuffy" eyes, if that makes sense) even when eating cleanly, but wanted to ask the smarties here. Thanks!

Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 6, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 6, 2014 A few thoughts: No one knows exactly what "natural flavors are." Bloggers are not the most rigorous crowd when it comes to verifying information. As a moderator, I am comfortable saying that the inclusion of natural flavors on an ingredient list does not make something off limits during a Whole30. If you notice yourself having a problem with something, by all means avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmayPA Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks, Tom! I think for my next W30 I'll avoid (was supposed to be 6/1 but... ) but not sweat it otherwise... All best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
