gluten-free Shampoo?

How do you know if shampoo, conditioners, or cosmetics have gluten in them? Do lots of these things have them in it? Does it say "gluten" right on the label? Somehow, I doubt it. lol. Nothing else says "gluten" right on it. Goodness... now I'm going to have to go through my bathroom and makeup bag. What next? lol.

They hide it too so you have to know brands and call around.

The whole Bare Escentuals makeup line is gluten free

Continuous Color by CoverGirl is gluten free

Dove will clearly indicate gluten in the form of wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label of all their products( I use many products from here)

Neutrogena has a list of products that are gluten free

HoneyBeeGardens has nail polish and other makeup that is gluten free

These are just to name a few...if you do a search you can find out about the brands that were discussed on here

Alot of lipsticks/lotions/shampoos/conditioners do have wheat in them. Some of them say it right on them and others do not.

Just got to check everything.

I have found that these products are gluten-free by calling Neutrogena.

Shampoo: Clean Replenishing

Body wash: Rainbath

Conditioner: Triple Moisture.

Body moisturizer: Body Emulsin

I don't use make-up LOL but I have an addiction to lip moisturizer Chap Stick (Cherry) is gluten-free, thank goodness or I'd have to have another support group LOL.

      Waiting on biopsy results but wanted opinion on bloodwork

      By Lynnard · Posted

      Thank you!  This is super helpful and confirms everything I have read. I was definitely eating lots of gluten before both testing and endoscopy. If the biopsies do come back negative, I'm wondering how conclusion/distinction is made between celiac and gluten intolerance is made.  Or does it matter because presumably recommendation of gluten-free diet will be the protocol??

      Weak positive blood test and marsh type 1

      You are welcome! We frequently get similar comments. Knowledge about celiac disease in the medical community at large is, unfortunately, still significantly lacking. Sometimes docs give what are obviously bum steers or just fail to give any steering at all and leave their patients just hanging out there on a limb. GI docs seem to have better knowledge but typically fail to be helpful when it comes to things like assisting their patients in grasping how to get started on gluten free eating. The other thing that, to me at least, seems to be coming to the forefront are the "tweener" cases where someone seems to be on the cusp of developing celiac disease but kind of crossing back and forth over that line. Their testing is inconsistent and inconclusive and their symptoms may come and go. We like to think in definite categorical terms but real life isn't always that way.

      How to navigate living with dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hey @Morgan Tiernan, Sounds just like my experience. I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis over 10 years ago. It appeared suddenly as a very itchy rash which looked like Eczema. When a steroid cream didn't clear it up, my Dermatologist (who had come across it before) suspected dermatitis herpetiformis and performed a skin biopsy which came back positive for dermatitis herpetiformis. The important thing is to get a definitive diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. What you've described sounds like classic dermatitis herpetiformis though. Hopefully, your Dermatologist has come across dermatitis herpetiformis before and performs the skin biopsy correctly as trents mentioned. I've had the blisters on the knees, hips, forearms/elbows or anywhere that pressure is applied to the skin ... from clothing or otherwise. They itch like nothing on earth, and yes salt from sweat or soaps/shower gels will irritate a lot. I've been on Dapsone and it is very very effective at eliminating the dermatitis herpetiformis itch, and improved my quality of life in the early stages of getting on top of dermatitis herpetiformis while I adjusted to the gluten-free diet. But it does have various side effects as trents said. It can effect the red blood cells, lowering hemoglobin and can cause anemia, and requires regular blood monitoring whilst on it. You would need to consider it carefully with your Dermatologist if you do have dermatitis herpetiformis. Here's a very informative webinar from Coeliac Canada discussing everything dermatitis herpetiformis related.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAdmsNiyfOw I've also found this recent interview with a Dermatologist about dermatitis herpetiformis to be educational.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZnLeKutgUY Keep the chin up and keep advocating for yourself for a proper diagnosis. Though it sounds like you're on top of that already. Are you in the UK or Ireland? I'm curious because your surname is Irish.
