Bullfrog And Banana Boat Sublocks

I recently called Banana Boat and emailed Bullfrog to ask about their sunblocks. Banana Boat said all of their sunblocks are gluten free. Same with Bullfrog, but via email (see below):

"Thank you for contacting Chattem, Inc. BULLFROG. All formulas of Bullfrog Sunblock are gluten free.

Should you wish to contact us again please write to Chattem, Inc. P.O. Box 2219, Chattanooga, TN 37409.

Sincerely,

Martha Gifford

Consumer Affairs Representative"

I called Banana Boat last summer. They were very nice and said that everything was gluten free but some of the tanning type lotions. Bullfrog said their stuff was gluten free as well.

This was last summer.

      Thank you for your reply. I was having about 2 slices of bread a day and other incidental gluten (occasional crackers and baked goods) so not reduced from my normal but not the 6 slices of bread like I’ve now seen suggested somewhere.

      I just received my lab results from the endoscopy/biopsies to see if I have Celiac. My doctor's office said it could take up to two weeks for the doctor to read the results and contact me to interpret them. I am wondering if anyone can help me to understand my results? On one hand, it seems like maybe I don't have it, but have something called Brunner Glands Hyperplasia, on the other hand it says I have increased lymphocytes and villous distortion. I am very confused. How will the doctor decide if I do or don't have it? I am so confused about all of this from the start of the journey a year ago, I really appreciate people's time on here reading this and helping me understand. Thank you.   Anatomic Pathology Report Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval Diagnosis synopsis: 01 Part 1-Gastric ,Upper GI Polyp(s), Excision, Stomach: PARIETAL CELL HYPERPLASIA IDENTIFIED.

NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA. Part 2-DUODENAL MUCOSA WITH NO DIAGNOSTIC ABNORMALITIES. NO EVIDENCE OF CELIAC DISEASE. NEGATIVE FOR GIARDIA, OTHER PARASITES OR OTHER PATHOGENIC ORGANISMS. NEGATIVE FOR HELICOBACTER PYLORI. NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA OR MALIGNANCY. Part 3-DUODENAL MUCOSA WITH INCREASED INTRAEPITHELIAL LYMPHOCYTES AND VILLOUS DISTORTION. SEE COMMENT. Comment: 01 Part 1- Part 2- Part 3- Villous distortion could be due to Brunner glands hyperplasia and not truly associated with celiac disease. Please see the diagnosis of Jar 2. Recommend clinical correlation. Anatomic Pathology Report (Cont.) Part 1-There is parietal cell hyperplasia with enlargement and dilatation of the lumens of some oxyntic glands. No dysplasia is seen. Part 2-Duodenal mucosa shows preserved villous architecture and normal cellularity of the lamina propria. Brunner glands are identified. No gastric metaplasia is seen. No dysplasia or malignancy is identified. There are no viral inclusions. No Giardia, other parasites or other pathogenic organisms are seen. No Helicobacter pylori organisms are identified. Part 3-Increased numbers of intraepithelial lymphocytes are noted (>6 lymphocytes/20 enterocytes at villous tips). Duodenal mucosa also shows villous distortion and slightly increased cellularity of the lamina propria. Brunner glands are hyperplastic. Gross description: 01 Part 1-The specimen is received in formalin labeled "KING, SHOSHANNA, Gastric Polyp ". Received are 2 fragments of tan, soft, tissue measuring 0.4 x 0.3 x 0.1 cm to 0.3 x 0.2 x 0.1 cm. The specimen is submitted entirely in cassette 1. Part 2-The specimen is received in formalin labeled "KING, SHOSHANNA, Duodenum Bx ". Received are multiple fragments of tan, soft, tissue measuring 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.2 cm to 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 cm. The specimen is submitted entirely in cassettes 1-2. Minute fragment(s) may not survive processing.

      This is another study that dispels the myth that glyphosate is safe: "Pesticides and prostate cancer incidence and mortality: An environment-wide association study": https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cncr.35572

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit! Were you on a reduced gluten diet when those blood tests or the biopsies were done?
