Generally, the biggie to look for in hair products is Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein. Of course in other body care products beware of all Aveeno products which have oats. Others may have some more ideas for you to watch out for.

Heck yes! Someone on here had a list of gluten free cosmetics and I'm not computer savvy enough to find the link- maybe someone else will post. But, especially if you are very sensitive-something only time will tell, you must check any product that possibly could be ingested. Fructis and Suave shampoos are safe. Lancome's website has a good list of things in cosmetics that would be wheat-containing- just go to "Lancome" and I think you'll find it.

More will post,

wheat germ oil is common in shampoos and cosmetics and lotions. I tossed out quite a lot of products.

You're looking for the same things in your cosmetics etc that you're looking for on food labels. Wheat, barley, and rye. If they're listed in the ingredients, don't buy it.

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
