My son is 5 years old and was diagnosed almost 2 years ago. He has gluten free tooth paste, shampoo and bubble bath. Since we kiss our son do we need to worry about what we use, especially what we put on our face? Chapstick? Make-up? Shaving Cream? Face lotion? Thank you!!!

What a great question!  

I used a gluten free (no gluten ingredients) lipstick/gloss/moisturizer prior to my diagnosis for my gluten-free hubby.  I also bought gluten-free hand lotion that we could all use.  It just made it easier (weird that I ended up having to be gluten free).   Odds of getting glutened by kissing?  Probably low, but why take chances?  I think kids who consume gluten probably “gluten” adults in most cases.

reported getting glutened by her four small children.  I believe her.  She is a preemie baby doctor.  She had her entire house go gluten free after she had her kids tested.  It just made it easier for her.  

So glad you are being so supportive!  Someday, your son will thank you.

      My kid has been eating gluten free (taking care of cc too) but he has constant stomach pain since diagnosis (4 months) Was wondering to look into other food allergies?

      It depends on what kind of allergy testing you want done and whether or not your insurance will allow you to make direct appointments with specialists. Serum allergy tests can be ordered by a PCP using a blood draw. Epidermal "prick panel" allergy testing would need to be done by an allergist. There is also something called ALCAT food sensitivity testing. We use the term "allergy" rather loosely and differently than it is used in medical settings.  All food allergy/sensitivity testing is problematic and the results often do not agree with each other or with actual symptoms. It's worth doing some research as to reliability before you dive into it.

      How do you do allergy tests? The primary doctor sends you to an allergist?

      1/1/2 slices of bread is likely not enough. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge are recommending 10g of gluten daily which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. Physicians in practice are often working from outdated info.

      Please list the ingredients of the granola. It may have nothing to do with gluten but an allergy or sensitivity to some ingredient.
