I never thought this would make a difference, but every since I started using gluten free hair products my hair not only look fuller, they are not falling out anymore. YAY!!! After loosing over 60% of my hair this is awesome.

I am having acne problems as well, and decided to switch my cosmetics to gluten free, I am looking for eye liners, mascara, and foundation and wanted to see if anyone know of any that are gluten free.

I have tried contacting companies but have learned that unless you provide them with a specific item they won't tell you much, and the ones I have can't be guaranteed gluten free.

I would really appreciate any insight on this.

I use Dermalogica treatment foundation. I contacted them and they sent me a list of their products that were gluten free. They are a skincare company so the treatment foundation is the only make-up they do.

For eye-liners and mascara, I use an on-line company,e.l.f cosmetics, who list the ingredients of each product. I think they only ship to UK and Italy though.

I have found Almay and Lancome work well. I too had bad acne for years and have always have to be careful what I put on my face and these do not bother my skin. I use Noxema as a daily face wash.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By trents · Posted

      ABP2025, there are no definitive diagnostic tests for NCGS. It is arrived at by first ruling out celiac disease despite continuing symptoms from gluten ingestion.

      So keep eating gluten daily, lots of it, until all celiac disease screening is completed. A negative biopsy would not rule out NCGS. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Barilla Gluten Free Pasta makes me sick

      By susan connolly · Posted

      Hi  I just had the same problem with Maninis Am gluten-free so I am very careful. It was delicious but big tummy ache and swelling.  I was soooo careful.  Nothing different but the tortellini.  Maybe cross contamination of some kind ?.  Best  Susan

      What should I do with these test results?

      By trents · Posted

      Sounds like a good plan, Jack. Correct about the genes. About 40% of the general population possess the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. So, genetic testing is used as a rule out measure.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By Jack Common · Posted

      I haven't seen any information there are other genes which trents wrote but what if I spend money to do this test and the results show I have these genes. It will mean nothing. I can have these genes and not have celiac disease if I know it right. Because biopsy is not available, unfortunately, the most reliable methods are blood tests, in my opinion. So I'm gonna eat gluten for another two months and then do the test again. It will be 12 weeks eating food with gluten so some symptoms might appear. Now, I don't have any except fogginess but I'm a software developer so it could be normal for me. Talking about how much food containing gluten to eat, I'm eating 6 slices of wheat bread per day (each slice weighs around 35 grams). I think it's much more than other people eat doing a gluten challenge. Before a gluten free diet I had symptoms like some food intolerance, diarrhea, bloating, belching. However, I also had giardiasis and after treating it I started a gluten free diet so it's unclear whether I had this symptoms because of eliminating gluten or this parasite. The symptoms for both are very similar. So I think it was this parasite because two years ago and before I didn't have these symptoms and I always ate gluten freely. Am I thinking okay or should I consider/do something else? I appreciate any suggestions.
