PRODUCT ALERT!!!

"It has been brought to our attention that some of the CENTRUM brand of
vitamins can no longer be considered gluten-free. We called their
information line at 1-888-797-5638 and spoke with a representative named
Jean-Paul.  He informed us  that Whitehall Robbins now uses a gluten
bearing ingredient called "lutein" in some of the Centrum vitamins.
Lutein is an anti-oxidant. It is not included in all of the Centrum
varieties so check the labels carefully. Lutein is listed on the list of
ingredients if it is included. This information supersedes the list that
Whitehall-Robbins provided to us earlier this year. For more information
you can reach Whitehall-Robbins at 1-888-797-5638 to inquire about
specific Centrum varieties, etc"

 So please call if you question this statement.  This representative states
clearly that any of their vitamins with "lutein"  in them are NOT Gluten
Free
