    I'm going to post more pictures as a comment, due to limits in size. I do not have DH, they insist I have atopic dermatitis by visual exams. But I thought it could be good to show other rashes triggered by gluten. Even though AD isn't supposed to be caused by allergies, it's clearly mine is. But mine is severely triggered by gluten. Background....

    I love something called Inotyol, it's a super fat ointment with zinc oxide among other things. Zinc oxide works a lot better on my skin than strong cortisone, especially inotyol. No side effects besides stains on fabrics. Often used on babies as diaper ointment. It's like an extra layer of thick skin that cools and calms( perhaps the lavender oils work...

    Hi I am only diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. But my atopic dermatitis begins to break out within an hour after digesting gluten, only with itching. After another hour or two, it becomes visible to others, coz it's like I've dipped my finger in acid. Elbow as well, leaving skinless open wounds. Then it goes through different stages, with zits...

    Dear wheatwacked. Your issues with vinegar could also be simply gluten related. This since the standard for labeling food as gluten-free is 20ppm, and a lot of vinegar is derived from grains like wheat, either directly or through glucose syrup. It could contain a few ppm gluten naturally, or it could be CC while processing the gluten-free wheat...

    Yes, it's incredibly frustrating to get reactions from things one thought was safe. I'm wishing for a lower standard than 20ppm, coz obviously we're quite a few who has a hard time digesting 5-19,9 too. Until then I try to go with no additives as far as possible, since one doesn't know for sure. But some are worse off, (than me) they cannot even eat...

    If not above has eased your pains, I'll add some of my pitfalls to the list. Very few studies have been done, but there's some to read that claims that about 4% of gluten-free labeled food reach above 20ppm in random samples (one particular study from Italy) I haven't been gluten-free for too long, but I have my index finger literally telling me...

    Thanks, I don't know if I have DH.. I just know that my rashes goes hand in hand with gluten/ grain derived things. But I'm definitely gonna mind iodine a lot more! Just a thought for you on vitamins. I cannot eat solid D-vitamins on pills, if they contain dextrin (derived from barley or wheat, but no need to tell on label). That is enough to evoke...
