Dear Mrs. Estes,
Thank you for contacting The Dannon Company, Inc. We sincerely appreciate
your interest in Dannon yogurt products and gluten.
Dannon yogurt products are characterized as either gluten safe or not gluten
safe. Our Dannon Plain Lowfat, Plain Nonfat and Plain Natural are all gluten
safe. Plain DanActive (formerly called Original DanActive) is gluten safe.
Vanilla, Strawberry and Blueberry are not due to the presence of natural
flavors. All other Dannon yogurts cannot be designated as gluten safe because the
natural flavor systems used might have ingredients added to stabilize the
flavor. The stabilizing ingredients may be derived from gluten sources.
For our valued consumers that may have allergenic risks associated with
gluten, our products are not specifically formulated to contain gluten but we
cannot guarantee that the alcohol portion of the natural flavor system is always
derived from corn and not from oats, rye and barley.
While both Activia(r) and DanActive(tm) are probiotics, the two products
have different benefits. DanActive with L. casei Immunitas(tm) helps naturally
strengthen you body's defense system and Activia with Bifidus Regularis(tm)
helps naturally regulate your digestive system, by helping with slow intestinal
transit.
We hope this information is helpful to you. As an additional resource, you
may wish to visit the website: www.celiac.com. Once again, thank you for
contacting Dannon.
Sincerely,
Lisa Moore
Consumer Response Representative
