hi all. shelley, i started adding some ground flax to my kefir shake and i just noticed that although it is organic, it doesnt say gluten free. it does say that it was manufactured in a facility that uses milk, soy and wheat products. it also says that good manufacturing practices are used to prevent introduction of these or any other unlabeled allergen. i am cautious about ingesting gluten as i dont know if im a celiac or just candia stricken. should i continue using this flaxseed in my drink? i have been feeling run down lately but that could anything, die off as i have been consuming massive amounts of probiotics....supplements and kefir, so i dont know if its related to me using this flax. i will say that between the kefir and the flax, i am staying pretty regular which for me is abnormal. well, lemme know and good luck with your health.

only gluten grains like wheat contain gluten. Flax seeds are seeds, they have no gluten. So you're fine.
