Dear Dr. Ellie:
I have celiac disease which requires me to be on a gluten free diet. Are Zellies gluten free?

Dear HK:
Yes, Zellies are completely gluten free.
It is interesting for me to hear from people who have been consuming xylitol regularly, many have seen improvements with their celiac disease symptoms.
I would advise anyone to start with small amounts of xylitol (half to one teaspoon 2 -4 grams) with a gradual increase to twice this amount which is ideal for oral health. I usually suggest eating Zellies mints/gum at the conclusion of a meal they work best this way and appear to be well tolerated.
I would encourage you to read about the Complete Mouth Care System especially how to care for your brush to keep toothbrushes clean and free from bacteria and molds. http://www.zellies.com/store.asp?pid=17185
If your symptoms appear to regress, we would be most interested to hear from you so as to encourage others to try this system.
Best Wishes,
Ellie
