Is Rice Protein Powder gluten free?

Rice does not naturally contain gluten which makes rice protein powder an ideal source for gluten intolerance or those with celiac disease. Having stated this, it is worth considering that protein powder additives may sometimes include gluten and the product label should be checked to ensure unwanted additives have not been included. Products may also have been processed using equipment that is used to process gluten products, however contamination with gluten is fairly unlikely.
