Wheat germ oil, or wheat germ, oats, triticus valgum(wheat) I don't think I spelled that right.

I've run into a lot of uncertainty from bathroom products manufacturers when I ask them about these things. Because labeling laws aren't the same as with food, most manufacturers of bathroom products are less sure about the gluten-free status of their items. They buy a lot of their ingredients from suppliers and don't know the gluten-free status of those ingredients. Especially when it comes to cross contamination in their suppliers' manufacturing processes. Pretty much all they can tell you for sure is whether or not they themselves add gluten containing ingredients.

I'm really hypersensitive to gluten and my reaction is within about 15 minutes, so when I try a new conditioner and I'm getting a reaction before I even blow dry my hair, I know it's the new conditioner. I've gotten glutened by some products (mostly haircare products) that didn't have gluten on the label, but when I called the manufacturer, I got the same explanation as above.

I've learned to only try one new product at a time, so if I react I know what the source is.

I've gotten this list from several manufacturers on what to look for on labels -

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Flour

Cyclodextrin

Dextrin

Dextrin Palmitate

Hydrolyzed Oat Flour

Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein

Hydrolyzed Wheat Flour

Hydrolyzed Wheat Gluten

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein/PVP Crosspolymer

Hydrolyzed Wheat Starch

Maltodextrin

Secale Cereale (Rye) Seed Flour

Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Extract

Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil

Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Gluten

Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Starch

Wheat Amino Acids

Wheat Germ Glycerides

Wheat Germamidopropalkonium Chloride

Wheat Protein

Wheatgermamidopropyl Ethyldimonium Ethosulfate

Yeast Extract

Hope that helps!

      Ground meat absolutely full of gluten?

      By glucel · Posted

      Flavorings usually identified but don't know if there are laws that govern that. I bot lamb shanks that had rosemary flavor but did not see anything else that might be a grain so I ate it. I eat tons ground beef usually organic and grass fed from aldi. Not identified as gluten-free but hopefully it is. On the other hand I would only eat hot dogs which has several ingredients if identified gluten-free.

      Absolutel liquor

      By Doug1229 · Posted

      All liquor that has been distilled are gluten-free because the liquor is captured from evaporation. Gluten is a heavy protein that will not evaporate make it safe for all celiac’s. cheers!

      Ground meats can contain flavorings and fillers. You must look for the gluten-free symbol on the packaging. I use Jennie-O brands which are marked gluten-free.

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I take Clonidine for blood pressure control.  It is the only one that did not debiltate me.  It also helps with my ADD.  Doctors always turned me down when I requested Ritalin (I am an adult) so it turned out for the best that I reacted badly to all the different BP meds they tried. Originally Clonidine was developed for ADHD adolescents that could not tolerate Ritalin.

      9 year old- questionable results

      You should also have her checked for vitamin deficiencies.   "Iodine's presence in the diet can contribute positively to hair strength and elasticity by maintaining hair follicle cycling and supporting the synthesis of hair shaft components like keratin. Keratin is strong and won't dissolve in diluted acids, alkalines, solvents, or water" "Keratosis pilaris is a benign skin condition characterized by small bumps around hair follicles. It is caused by excess keratin, a protein that forms hair, nails, and skin. Iodine is not directly related to keratosis pilaris, but certain foods can help improve it" It could be deficiency in iodine may be causing the keratosis Polaris.  Insufficient iodine intake affects healing, intellegence skin and nails. The average intake of iodine fell 50% from 1970 to now.  A Medium Urinary Iodine Concentration test will indicate intake.  TSH and T4 will not show iodine intake deficiency until damage is being done. Most newly diagnosed Celiac Disease and other autoimmune diseases are deficient in vitamin D when diagnosed.  Other than bone growth, vitamin D is essential for mental health and the immune system.
