Looking to avoid accidental gluten ingestion?

Even with the best intentions, eating out can be risky. Hidden gluten is sneaky, and cross-contamination may occur. That's where GluteGuard^® comes in.

GluteGuard^® helps to protect against the symptoms of accidental gluten ingestion and gluten sensitivity by helping to support gluten digestion, GluteGuard^®'s enzyme, Caricain, helps to break down gluten before it interacts with the intestinal lining, helping to support gluten digestion. GluteGuard^® should be used in conjunction with a gluten-free diet and before a meal.

Final Thoughts

Toronto's gluten-free scene is vibrant, inclusive, and full of flavor. If there is any doubt that your meal contains Gluten, have GluteGuard^® on hand. So go ahead—book that brunch, plan that dinner date, and enjoy every bite.
