Send feedbackOur Gold Standard 100% Plant is Gluten Free.
While many of our other products do not include ingredients containing gluten – they are manufactured in a plant which carries gluten containing products. However, we do clean all machinery in between production, so if at all, only traces should remain.
Therefore we would not recommend our products for someone who is celiac or allergic to gluten.
Please check the allergen information on pack as certain products do contain the ingredient gluten. E.g. Gold Standard 100% Whey Cookies & Cream, Serious Mass.

Send feedbackAll of our products are made in a facility that houses egg / nut containing ingredients and therefore every product contains the statement ‘May contain: x, y, z, egg, nuts and peanuts.’
However, It depends on the severity of the allergy as to whether the customer is happy to consume a product that does not actually contain these ingredients but acknowledges that they are present in the manufacturing facility.
If this is the case, the majority of Optimum Nutrition products are suitable for consumption and the customer should just avoid products that contain these allergens which are clearly highlighted in the product ingredients lists.
