I don't understand why shampoos need to be gluten free.

I thought it was anything on or near the mouth. If I'm careful, I should be able to continue using what I have. Just don't let it run in my mouth, right? I'm really not in favor of throwing all this shampoo away.

In general gluten in shampoo won't be an issue for the vast majority of those with celiac disease, but may be an issue for those who are super sensitive, or those who have dermatitis herpetiformis. Going forward, after the kind you are using is finished, you may want to consider getting a gluten-free version, as there are many out there.

Oh, thank you! I know my friend is paranoid about every little thing, but I don't plan to be unless I find I'm that sensitive, too.

      Do Severe Symptoms at Celiac Diagnosis Predict Long-Term Health? (+Video)

      I was diagnosed 14 years ago. At the time, information was scarce. Everything said life expectancy was 65. I'm now 72. I follow the diet very strictly. I actually adopted a grain free diet too, because I had so much brain fog and other issues that didn't heal with a gluten free diet. People with persistent issues should really look at eliminating grains...

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      Hi. I went to a UK local restaurant that website / ring up said they provided "Gluten Free" food. When placing the order, the waitress & manager then told us they couldn't guarantee contamination occurs and would do their best. It didn't give me confidence and we politely left. I wrote them an email and received a polite reply, again saying they...

      Insomnia help

      Totally agree, that is an excellent point. I tend to mention these vitamins and also ferritin, because in England (not sure about the rest of the UK) these are the tests generally offered routinely through our public health system. It is unusual to be offered much more than that. I was low normal/deficient in all three, and found that when I supplemented...

      Bold Taste, No Alcohol & Crafted to Remove Gluten: Daura Non-Alc Beer Takes Alcohol-Free Beer to the Next Level

      I'm being SERIOUS here! Absolutely none of the styles of beer I use to drink are ever represented in the gluten-free market.

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      By colinukcoeliac · Posted

      Hi. I went to a UK local restaurant that website / ring up said they provided "Gluten Free" food. When placing the order, the waitress & manager then told us they couldn't guarantee contamination occurs and would do their best.  It didn't give me confidence and we politely left. I wrote them an email and received a polite reply, again saying they provide "Gluten Free" food but can't "guarantee contamination occurs". Specifically; their email states "I would like to clarify that while many of our products are indeed gluten-free, the very nature of our open kitchen, storage practices, and the close proximity of fryers alongside the use of gluten-containing products, means we cannot guarantee a completely gluten-free preparation environment." Many queries arise, but my main one is - Should they be displaying on their website "Gluten Free" if they don't have a gluten-free preparation environment ? I will continue to do my own research on the matter, mainly what should my expectations be from a restaurant advertising a "Gluten Free" menu. However, I would benefit a gossip with someone on the topic, or if can you direct me to more information. Thanks, Colin.

I was low normal/deficient in all three, and found that when I supplemented them all I felt better.  That said, my private nutritionist put me onto a very expensive broad spectrum supplement pill which no doubt went some way to address other deficiencies, and I took it into my own hands to take a supplement which contained all the B vitamins., too.  Interestingly, when I checked the supplements with my own GP a little while later she was very worried about the large doses of one particular vitamin that the broad spectrum supplement contained, so I came off the lot - although my gastroenterologist still has me take vitamin D.

      Did they ever tell you specifically which vitamins would interfere with which tests? Fermented pickles source of thiamine  and other B-vitamins, The fermentation process with lactic acid bacteria increases the nutrient value.   Colonies of beneficial bacteria can help crowd out the the bad SIBO. Have you had the rash biopsied for Dermatitus Herpetiformus?  Atopic Dermatitis and dermatitis herpetiformis share symtoms and atopic dermatitis patients have higher risk of dermatitis herpetiformis.  dermatitis herpetiformis is a symptom of Celiac diagnosis. When I had the carotid artery stent, the hospital put down "wheat allergy" for the food service.  I guess allergy puts the fear of god in them more than the misunderstood Celiac Disease.  Whatever keeps me alive in this world.

      You are correct.  Same place.  I have used their site for so long and have it bookmarked.  Still living in past.  Our support group was affiliated with them.

      Hmm, I think you mean the Gluten Intolerance Group®?  Their website is not gig.net.  Maybe it was at one point?  I am new to all of this, but did find their website here:  https://gluten.org/ Kind Regards, Known1
