      I was diagnosed with celiac disease at age 54. I am now 69 and checking about Dulcolax being gluten-free. I came across your post about being 70 and what could go wrong in the last few years of life! I’m sorry but I find that quite sad that in this day and age you find 70 being the last few years of life. My parents are alive and are 92 and 93. I have grandchildren ranging in age from 20 down to 2.5 years old. I plan on being here, alive and healthy for quite some time. I have never once knowingly ingested anything containing gluten. I know the damage it has caused to my body, my intestines. Eating gluten free has come a long way since I was diagnosed. I hope you realize the importance of remaining gluten free for the rest of your life. And I hope you live a long and healthy life. 70 years old today is not nearing the end of my life and I certainly hope not yours either.

      According to celiac.com… “Specifically, is Burt's Bees gluten free? The short answer is no. Burt's Bees does not label its products as gluten-free, as they are manufactured in facilities that process gluten ingredients. “ I found 2 gluten free natural makeup companies( they also have nail polish and remover .. Honeybee Gardens and Bee You Organics

      Hey, it is so tempting, all the time to go back to eating gluten but as you say there are other medical issues it could introduse. I'm 70 years and I keep thinking what could go wrong in the last few years of life? It's hard. Thanks for your input.

      Yes, it’s called “silent celiac.” I have two family members who have this. One of which doesn’t eat a gluten free diet because she doesn’t think it does damage if she doesn’t have symptoms. However, I am well aware of the damage she is doing and risks to significant medical complications in the future. She is also pregnant with her second child and I’m fearful of what damage can be done to her pregnancy not following a gluten free diet. Very frustrating for those of us who are celiac and follow a strict diet and very confusing for our family members who don’t understand why one celiac can have gluten and other celiacs can’t.
