"Most commercial brands of peanut butter are also gluten-free, but where things get complicated is that some peanut butters contain additives for improved taste."
"According to Beyond Celiac, around 1% of Americans suffer from celiac disease, which means consuming gluten can cause damage to the small intestine."
Peanut butter lovers can find concerns regarding gluten content in both homemade and commercial peanut butter. While peanuts are naturally gluten-free, additives in commercial brands may introduce gluten. Moreover, cross-contamination can occur during production unless facilities are dedicated to gluten-free products. The FDA regulations ensure that labeled gluten-free products contain less than 20 ppm of gluten, while certified gluten-free products undergo third-party testing. Consumers should verify labels and consider trusted brands to enjoy peanut butter without gluten worries.
