Gluten Content of Proteins

Here is the information regarding the gluten content of the proteins you asked about:

• Hydro Protein (Soy, Oat, Wheat, Maize Protein): This product is a blend of proteins from different sources. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Therefore, the Wheat component of this blend contains gluten. Soy, Oat (if pure and not cross-contaminated), and Maize (corn) do not contain gluten.

• Hair Wheat Protein (Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein): This ingredient is derived from Wheat. Wheat naturally contains gluten. While hydrolysis breaks down the protein into smaller parts, this ingredient is still considered to contain gluten as it originates from a gluten source.

• Hydrolyzed Silk: This protein is derived from silk (silkworms). Silk protein does not contain gluten.

In summary, the proteins derived from Wheat (Hydro Protein blend and Hair Wheat Protein) contain gluten, while Hydrolyzed Silk does not.
