This brand Lavera, is a toxin free company. My Lyme dr suggested that I use their products. I emailed them about the gluten status, and all of their products are gluten free! (Not to mention, they emailed me back in literally 15 minutes!)

Thank you for contacting lavera skin care. All lavera products are safe for

people with celiac disease. I have attached ingredient lists for our top

selling products, please let me know if there are any other products that

are of interest to you.

Thank you again!

I am totally excited to use something that I know is gluten free, and that is toxin free! So many products are so toxic, it's crazy! Just thought I'd pass this info along to anyone who is interested! :)

I looked this up at Skin Deep and it fares pretty well, products ranging from low to moderate hazards.

The highest rankings are for the self tanner and liquid concealer (both got a 6, which is the high end of the moderate hazard), but everything else is a 1-3 (low hazard to the low end of moderate hazard)

I know what you mean it is so hard to find products that aren't toxic. I was using a skin care line I thought was ok and it ranks in the 5-7 range at Skin Deep so I am looking for something else.

I'm going to check out this line Kassandra, thanks for posting :)

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
