Facebook Fallacy Friday: Gluten in Animal Feed Makes Products Unsafe
Description
This week on Facebook: a poster became concerned after googling if a ham product was gluten free. The AI overview stated that the animal feed contained gluten and therefore it wasn't gluten free even though the product had no gluten-containing ingredients.
This topic has come up and Beyond Celiac has addressed it a number of times. On the topic of whether beef from conventionally-raised, grain-finished cattle may contain gluten to date, basic principles of ruminant digestion have been cited in support of the prevailing expert opinion that beef is inherently gluten-free.
Meat is naturally gluten free. Plain, fresh cuts of meat, including beef, poultry (chicken, turkey, etc), rabbit, lamb and fish/seafood meat, are all gluten free. However, be careful with breaded or floured meats, which typically contain wheat and therefore gluten.
