People with food intolerances may need extra support when it comes to vitamins and minerals. Intestinal malabsorption due to gluten sensitivity causes nutrient deficiencies that can be corrected safely with a gluten-free diet and verified gluten-free nutritional supplementation.
Independent third-party testing on finished products verifies our products to be free of gluten and gliadin. Our results are consistently "BLD" (below the lower limit of detection, e.g. less than 10 PPM (parts per million) gluten.
Worldwide, the most stringent limit for gluten and gliadin content in foods and supplements labeled "gluten-free" is the Canadian standard of 20 PPM of gliadin. This amount is at least twice the level found in any Pioneer® formula!
A peer-reviewed scientific paper published by Pioneer explains why and how people with celiac disease absorb nutrients less efficiently than unaffected individuals.
CONCLUSION: High level nutrient supplementation can be extremely beneficial - and perhaps critical - for those with celiac disease and gluten intolerance.
