Although the ceramides contains in AgeOFF glow are derived from wheat, it has been confirmed that the gluten content is less than 3ppm.

Health Canada has conducted exposure estimations to gluten from grain-containing foods and foods with grain-derived ingredients (i.e., flour), taking into consideration the various rates of food consumption by different sex and age groups. These estimates have concluded that if gluten was present at levels not exceeding 20ppm (parts per million or milligrams per kilogram), exposure to gluten would remain below 10 mg per day for all age groups studied. As individuals with celiac disease tend to consume even fewer servings of grain-based products, these estimates further demonstrate that even if all foods labelled as gluten-free food contained 20 ppm gluten, the majority of people with Celiac disease would still be protected (consume less than 10 mg gluten/day). This assessment will be made available in the peer reviewed scientific literature.

On this note, if you were taking AgeOFF glow you would still be below the 10 mg gluten/day set up by Health Canada indicated that you would be protected.
