Recommended Posts

Hey guys, Ive Learned my Colgate, where it is gluten free, yet its not soy free, Id like not to have my teeth to rot out. I found I was having a soy reaction to the tooth paste. in search of anything at this point. Having a soy free diet has been a real challenge. Im at a point, I might try to figure out how to make the stuff from scratch. Im having to have my meds made from a compounding company, $1 a pill aint cheap on Ibuprofen.

or Tom's or others that you might find at Whole Foods type places.

You could always make your own toothpaste. There's lots of recipes for them on the internet.

I use Tom's of Maine. It's been fine.

Face Naturals makes 3 varieties of "tooth cleansers" that are completely free of soy, corn, gluten, etc. They're stuff is a bit pricier, but it's all natural and all organic, and their stuff lasts about a year. They also have a reward system, every time you order something you earn points that don't expire. It adds up, and you can use the points for money off of future orders. You might find other products on there as well. I've used their deodorant, chapstick, and other products - they are great. All of their products are allergen friendly and their customer service is great.

Also...I use Crest Pro Health, does that have soy in it? I didn't think so. I also need to avoid soy. I think the Tom's of Maine one I use occasionally is gluten/soy free as well. There are tons of natural toothpastes out there.

I just got a response from Colgate

 

Dear John:

Thank you for contacting us and asking about Colgate Toothpaste.

Colgate Toothpaste does not contain soy or soy proteins. ( So when they said no soy proteins, they mean soy Lecithin.)

We appreciate your interest in our products.

Sincerely,

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.
