Non-GFCO Products That Are Tested to be Gluten Free

I can only use certified products, but GFCO doesn't really do much skincare or not edible. I reached out to a ton of companies and found safe cleaning products/makeup/skincare/haircare that aren't certified. Here's the emails I got from the ones that sounded the most safe/reassuring.

 

Cleaning products

1. Puracy

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns about gluten in our products. I completely understand the importance of this information given your celiac disease, and I’m here to provide clarity.

Puracy products are 100% gluten-free, and our manufacturers do not use any gluten in their facilities. Additionally, they thoroughly sanitize all equipment between uses, ensuring that our products are safe from cross-contamination at levels that could affect even microscopic bacteria. This rigorous cleaning protocol ensures that there are no traces of gluten in our products, making them safe for individuals with severe allergies or celiac disease.

If you have any more questions or need further information, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help ensure you have a safe and positive experience with our products!

Best regards,

Donna

Hello Michaella688,

Thank you for reaching out to us. All products are gluten-free. We do not share a facility, we only make our own products in them. 

Please let me know if you have any other questions. 

 

Skincare

1. Andalou

We take our responsibility to consumers very seriously, especially those with gluten sensitivity. Once a formula is finalized we send it for testing at the University of Nebraska's Food Allergy Research and Resource Program (FARRP) for reassurance that the final formula is indeed gluten free and safe for those with celiac disease and gluten sensitivities. 

We are committed to the consumers’ right to know, and we believe in transparent labeling practices. You may rest assured that what you read on our label is exactly what is in our product.

At Andalou Naturals we know you have a choice when it comes to your personal care, which is why we believe in using ingredients that are Non-GMO, gluten free verified, certified organic, nature derived, vegetarian, vegan, sustainably sourced and fair trade, and always cruelty free, so that our health-minded consumers can rely on our products to always be as efficacious as they are good for you.

Have a beautiful day!

From Mariana at the Andalou Naturals Consumer Care Team

Hi Mika,

Thank you for your email!

We have our own facility and we test products for gluten. We are not gluten free certified yet since we just moved facilities.

I hope it clarifies!

      Hi. Did your ema levels ever go negative? My son is 2 years in gluten free and they are still positive.  I'm scared he has refractory celiac disease. Please if anyone has any info greatly appreciate it. His ttg is 3 which is considered normal.

      I will have that info soon but it was a laundry list of a test and 9 viles. ok so there were some days she was gluten she barely ate because of the reactions. I told her 3 weeks of atleast 10g’s a day and no gluten-free days. Thanks so much for your help! I didn’t know my suggestion for gluten-free days would have hurt her.    I will come back with the list to make sure the req was proper!!

      A "gluten challenge" of two weeks would be the bare minimum for expecting to render valid testing, and that would have been paired with eating a minimum of 10 g of gluten each day (the equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread). And with the three gluten free days in the midst of that two week gluten challenge I would not have confidence in the results of the testing. Was there a blood test done for IGA deficiency? Can you post the test names that were done with the scores and with the reference ranges used by the lab? By the way, with celiac disease the issue is not being able to digest gluten. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder defined by the fact that ingestion of gluten triggers an immune system response that attacks the membrane that lines the small bowel. The immune system mistakenly identifies the protein gluten as a biologic invader.

      Hey all!! M i want to thank everyone for their suggestions and advice - I am a single mother of 4 (now 3) and was helping with my oldest leaving the nest. I have another child with medical issues and with work (it’s our end year), life has been crazy and I haven’t had the time to answer.    so we got a blood test done for my daughter that can’t digest gluten. She had been eating gluten for 2 weeks. The blood work came back normal? How is that possible. I see her with my own eyes and it’s not normal. Is that not long enough?  I am thinking about having her eat gluten another week then go to the hospital and see what they say.    She did have 3 gluten-free days in those 2 weeks but she was getting afraid to eat and I told her to may take a day off - was this a bad thing to do? Girl was having constant back pains and muscle soreness as well. Headaches/migraines…should I wait longer. I did see 4-6 weeks of Gluten consumption prior to testing… kind of at a loss now.    Thanks to everyone for whatever advice you can give.   Enjoy your Sunday 😃👋👋
