Can anyone pls. share the names/website links of companies that produce products with gluten-free labels? Esp. interested in hand/body lotion, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste. It would be so nice if there was a one-stop shopping website for ALL of these. It's so time-consuming to do separate internet searches for each kind of item. Not to mention...

I get the point of those who say these products are all safe "because I use/have no issues with them." Also, there are likely individual variances in response to even minute G exposure in topical products (like any other product). Some folks have a bad side-effect/reaction, others don't. But as a newly-diagnosed gluten sensitive/IBS person who still...

Thanks everyone who posted links above to articles about gluten in personal care products. These articles, while interesting, are not very reassuring because none cite valid medical studies or study data/results showing the safety of personal care products to people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance...i.e., double-blind, large, comprehensive...

@trents....Doubtful. BOTH parties are so corrupted by corp. $$ and MOST products here are STILL made and imported from cheap foreign factories (as they have been for the last 40 years), including cars, drugs, and even American flags, "Made in America" labels, and "MAGA" T-shirts and baseball caps. ROFL. IMO, that press conference was just empty political...

@CL, thanks for posting that link to check drugs and your response (and for checking statins). I hear what you say about Vaseline and corporate "CYA"-speak. But I still have my doubts because, if they were truly gluten-free, how hard is it put a little gluten-free label on their product with a CYA disclaimer: "We don't use any gluten ingredients, but we...

Update: I called Vaseline's 800 # to inquire whether their hand lotion and any of their products have gluten ingredients. The rep told me "I don't know but Vaseline doesn't test their products to ensure no gluten in them." I guess I will just toss them out to be safe. I'm really surprised that EXTERNALLY APPLIED products could potentially mess up someone...

I don't usually wear lipstick, makeup or dress up much these days--esp. since the pandemic because I stay home except when I take walks outside, or for a quick dash to the grocery store or pharmacy early AM. Can anyone recommend reliably gluten-free shampoo, OTC hair color, and hand/body lotion/moisturizer brands? My skin is esp. dry now (not sure if...

Thanks again, cycling lady!

Thanks folks for your kind, encouraging replies. Much appreciated!

@cyclinglady...thanks so much for your kind, reassuring reply and generosity in reading/responding to my Qs. As I am so "new" to the world of gluten issues, I'm trying to find the "best way" to heal and separate medically-sound info./good tips from all the Dr. Google "quackpots" and unproven sales pitches and useless "information" on the Internet...Some...

Thank you Cyclinglady for your comprehensive comments to DJFL771. I also am new to this topic, forum and have experienced similar and "odd" symptoms: constant lightheadedness/off-balance feeling, headaches, constant tinnitus, noise sensitivity, brain fog, fatigue, insomnia, as well as recent sudden "allergies" to even healthy foods like nuts, fruits...

Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with "possible" celiac late last year when I had a routine blood tests after experiencing a few days of sudden bad indigestion unresponsive to OTC remedies or bland diet. (TTG) showed G antibodies (224). However, my subsequent endoscopy/biopsy was "normal with no celiac sprue" and "mild gastritis with no significant pathological...
