GMO does not mean a product is gluten free. This one in fact IS NOT GLUTEN FREE. For those of you who wrote in saying it was, you don't know what you're talking about. There is no label that says it's gluten free and the ingredient list has "enriched wheat flour." That says gluten to me. I'm now nursing a bout of nausea and diarrhea for believing the respondent who said there was a gluten free label. If you don't know what you are talking about, don't say anything at all!

Im not sure about gluten free, but if you are familiar with all the different way gluten is listed as an ingredient. The manufacturers website has a product label for each flavor and you can check them out induvidually. http://www.naturesplus.com

Yes the canister states both non GMO and the product is also gluten free GF.

According to the Nature's Plus website, this product contains enriched wheat flour and it doesn't state that its gluten free, so I'm guessing its not GF.

Yes it is. It says so right on the front of the container on the left. Hope this helps and enjoy!

It does say right on the container Nature's Plus Spiru-Tein® Shake Vanilla -- 2.4 lbs is gluten free

Also. From the main page you can select produst by family and select gluten free. They also have another product called Fruitein. It would appear that you have quite a few options from the spirutein and fruitein line that are gluten free. :)!

Hi Colleen, sorry it took me so long to respond. Yes this is gluten free and it states it right on the front of the package. We are not celiac, however we do follow a gluten free diet and find this product to be great. I use it to make raw granola.

It appears to be. Not sure if it's gluten free though. Does have a nice cinnamon flavor and is a nice natural diet aid.

I just checked a package. The #1 ingredient is enriched wheat flour and the package doesn't say gluten free. So, I seriously doubt they are gluten free. Sorry!

Reading from the label it appears to be gluten-free without exactly saying it. There is a phone number for questions (1-800-9NATURE).

The bottle says SOYFREE, GMO FREE and HEXENE FREE. It doesn't mention gluten, however, since gluten is the protein in wheat, I cant see how there could possibly be ANY in this product. Usually when you see SOYFREE, its inferred that there's no gluten. I checked the internet, and it seems that this product is made from spinach. I cant see why you'd have a problem.

No, Greens First is not truly gluten free. On the company website they provide a certificate showing that on one lab test in 2011 there were 4ppm (parts per million) of gluten in the product. In the FAQ they admit there is a small amount of gluten in Greens First. The "law" says if your product has less than 20 ppm gluten you may label it "gluten free." This is great for the companies cashing in on the gluten free food fad, but not for people with celiac disease. Now we have to do even MORE homework before we can eat. If you have celiac disease, and you really want to try this, use a small amount first. I did, and all the celiac symptoms and complications kicked in. Be smarter than I, and do some extra homework first!

i took a very clear pic of the label on the back of the bottle, but don't see an option to post it here. anyway, as all the answers before mine, it is gluten free. it contains 750 mg swee tpotato powder which provides 1mg of ceramide. and amino acid complex 120 mg. it is a kind of big, brown caplet.

Yes it is gluten free, but the main reason we get it, is that it is soy free. My wife is allergic to soy and this product has not soy. It tastes very good and is great for you. With the disclaimer that we are in our 60s, so we use it as a supplement, not a muscle builder any more.

I would say it is gluten free. But I'm not that current on gluten products -- so.... It does have soy protein in it and roasted beef, corn oil, and xanthan gum. A few more. Sorry I can't be more help.

Well, I would guess it is since its just eb juice extract. I can't think of a reason gluten would be in such a product. My husband has trouble with gluten products but this didn't bother him at all. Don't know if that helps or not.

The product is gluten free and soy free. It's certified organic which is "usually" non GMO but would have to do more research to find out about GMO's.

I went on the company website. They say they don't label their product as gluten free any more. Those that are not will list any wheat products on the label.

not gluten free!!!! has fermented wheat! and upon a call to NEW CHAPTER they told me it always had it but the FDA forced them to list it. This is not okay for gluten sensitive people and those with celiac disease!!!

Spelt is NOT gluten free. It most certainly contains gluten, and is NOT for Celiacs. However, non-celiacs who are wheat intolerant can often eat spelt without a reaction. My husband has terrible allergies to many grasses. He had to have his sinuses re-carved/formed because they had all filled in due to so many years of terrible inflammation - that's how bad his allergies are, not to mention the steroids and other meds he has used for years to try to control his allergies. He started seeing a naturopathic doctor in 2012 who put him on an elimination diet, and found that he is allergic to wheat - which is a GRASS. Now that he has gone wheat free, his nose gets painfully inflamed and congested (like it always did) when he so much as consumes regular oats (which are contaminated with wheat), or anything contaminated with wheat. Gluten free oats do not bother him. He hardly uses his meds any more, which is remarkable! The ND explained that the allergy to grasses combined with the wheat(a grass) in the diet, has an additive effect, which is why his nasal response has been so profound. So, he has found that spelt is okay and does not bother his nose. So, he is not gluten free so much as wheat free, but since most gluten in products is from wheat, he can't have any of that without feeling the effect. But spelt seems to be fine. We are going to try Einkorn wheat soon and see if he tolerates that. Again, spelt is NOT gluten free, but for non-celiacs it may be okay for wheat-intolerant people. I assume that if spelt was processed on equipment that processes wheat, it would be problematic for my husband.

The product does not state that it is gluten free but it is simply several different beneficial oils and gelatin. I am gluten sensitive and I have no reaction to it.
