Soft Lips By Mentholatum

I LOVED that these were one product that I could buy anywhere that actually say "Gluten Free" on the label/boxing. But, I soon realized that my lips would get irritated whenever I used them. Did this happen to anyone else? Or is this just a completely different allergy all my own?

I can't answer your question but Blistex Medicated Lip Balm in the blue-green tube and Neosporin Lip Health are safe. Then again, we can have sensitivies to most anything so what I can use, others may not be able to.

I use Blistex Medicated lip balm in the white and red container but Neosiporin has sulfa in it and I am highly allergic to that, just another thing I have to look out for. My lips do dry up and even split and get very store, if I put that balm on my wrist it will blister or rash out. Hope this might help.

Mentholatum contains eucalyptus. Of course, I have no clue what things you might be allergic to, but I'm so allergic to eucalyptus I cannot even walk down the same aisle of the hobby store where it is stocked with the dried flowers, grasses, etc. without becoming sick. Perhaps you are having a reaction to eucalyptus.

      Contaminated cooking oils

      By Jsingh · Posted

      I am asking for my six year old. It took us four months to figure out what was going on- a brand of extra virgin olive oil we were using for every meal. We changed the brand she instantly got better- from Gi to nephropathy to joint pain, to tinnitus to dry eyes. You name a symptom and she has it when glutened, so it's difficult to second guess when it's all so obvious. Anyway, two months later, i bought another bottle of the same brand, and the olive oil was sourced form 5 different countries, as opposed to one. It took exactly a month for her symptom to start all over again. And sure enough it was the oil! I am sorta getting tired of trying to get these "healthy" oils glutening her. Does anyone have any thought on cooking oils that they think for sure are not contaminated, or any certified glutenfee brands they suggest? I'd appreciate. At this point, I just need any oil that's free of contamination- healthy or otherwise. Healthier is better. But i'll tkae anything. Thanks

      GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION

      @CeliacPsycho246, You might try cutting out dairy.  Some of us react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as to gluten.
