Desert Essence

I was curious about one of their products that is not a part of their gluten free organics line, and here's what they had to say:

Thank you for your interest in Desert Essence. We do not use gluten in our Desert Essence products, however we do not state that they are gluten free because the facility where they are produced is not free of gluten.

The Organics Line is the only product line within Desert Essence that is manufactured in a separate facility and is labeled wheat and gluten free and is vegan.

Please visit our web site to see our new and exciting products and promos.

Have a nice day.

Kind regards,

Desert Essence Customer Care

Great to know. I use some of their organics line. I want to start making my own stuff, though. Thanks for your reportage.

      Ok, interesting. Not what I was thinking that meant. I'm reading the article and trying to understand. I see this “According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy” My IgG is 90, which is 6 times. So to me that means it's highly likely I do have it.

      It just means you aren't IGA deficient, i.e., that IGA deficiency cannot have given you artificially low scores in the individual IGA celiac antibody tests. This is explained in the article Scott linked above.

      Normal range: 70 - 400 mg/dL, a little above middle of the range. So what does that mean? Thank you! I will check out that page you linked. Appreciate it!

      Well, the only thing I would conclude with would be, if you choose not to trial the gluten free diet, is to encourage you to get periodically tested, either antibody blood tests or the biopsy or both. I think it something that needs to be monitored.

      So the strange thing is I don't have any symptoms at all, except the soft stools (comes and goes) which they told me was from the Lymphocytic colitis. I had some mild positives on my antibody test and one gene was positive which is what made my doctor go ahead with the endoscopy. The reason they started any of this was finding the lymphocytic colitis this past summer after I had C Diff and she said, Well....it may be from something like Celiac.... Definitely a lot to learn through all of this and I appreciate people like you taking the time to help out a stranger like me!
