Q: Is this protein powder gluten-free?

submitted by LuAnn - 9 months ago
  • A: Thank you for choosing ON! We follow all FDA labeling guidelines and it is required for us to list gluten as an allergen if it is added. There is no added gluten into this, however it is in a facility that has gluten ingredients so there may be a chance of cross contamination from the air. We follow all GMP practices and clean very thoroughly in between batches.

    I have been ordering this on repeat! The flavor is great and it’s the perfect flavor to mix in with a fruit smoothie and get your protein in. Lately I have been mixing it in with my oatmeal in the morning and mixing in some berries and a drizzle of honey on top. So good!

    The best protein supplement. But disappointed by the service from Target. I hoped to receive a tub but they sent a ziplock bag. I would appreciate if they had the options to select based on the availability.
