Does anyone know which body washes, shampoo and conditioners that are gluten free?

I have about 5 different antibacterial lotion soaps, deep cleansing gel soaps, and foam soaps, and as far as I can tell by the ingredients they are gluten free. I love bath and body works!!! I just use salon hair products, so I am not sure there, and I use dove body wash. But hopefully that gives you some ideas.

I actually contacted Bath and Body Works because I love their stuff and this was their response.

Dear Caraline,

We appreciate you taking the time to write us in regards to our policies, services and products. We value your inquiry and your interest in Bath & Body Works and The White Barn Candle Co.

Please contact us at the number listed below so that we can better answer your questions about gluten and which products you are concerned with. We do not have a list of gluten free products to provide. You may use the following information to see if gluten is included in the ingredient list.

Gluten includes:

Wheat: or any ingredients containing the genus species name Triticum Vulgare

Oat: or any ingredients containing the genus species name Avena Sativa

Barley: or any ingredients containing the genus species name Hordeum Distichon

Rye: or any ingredients containing the genus species name Secale Cereale

Soy: or any ingredients containing the genus species name Glycine Soja

We can provide you with the ingredient listing for any specific product you are inquiring on; however, we cannot make any guarantees that it doesn't appear in trace amounts due to the processing of other ingredients and 2nd and 3rd generation by-products (i.e. ingredients used to make the ingredients in our products). We would always recommend that you check with your physician prior to using any product that you might have a concern about.

Thanks again for contacting us. We hope you will continue to enjoy your favorites from Bath & Body Works and The White Barn Candle Co. If we can do anything else for you, please feel free to reply to this e-mail (please do not change the subject line) or call us at 1-800-395-1001.

Sincerely,

Amy Ault

Customer Relations Representative

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Thank you, Scott!  This is just what I needed.  Appreciate your site very much and all of your time and energy that goes into it! Kind Regards, Peg

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
