*The Atkins Bake Mix by definition is gluten-free, even though oat fiber is listed on the Nutrition Facts panel. According to the FAO/WHO, "products containing greater than 0.30% (300ppm) protein from wheat, rye, barley, and oats, etc. should not be labeled as gluten-free." Products with 0.02-0.03% (200-300 ppm) gluten are "borderline gluten-free", while those products containing less than 0.01% (100 ppm) gluten are considered gluten-free.
The oat fiber that we use in our Atkins Bake Mix is purchased from Canadian Harvest (Cambridge, MN) as Snowite 300. This Snowite 300 product is an extract of the oat hull, which botanically speaking is a modified leaf. Based on studies performed by Dr. Bruce Hamaker at Purdue University, the Snowite 300 product has gluten levels of 800 ppm. In our Atkins Bake Mix , Snowite 300 is formulated at a 5.5% level, which dilutes/drops the maximum gluten content of our mix to 88 ppm. Thus, this level is below the 0.01% (100 ppm) level required to allow a gluten-free claim.
