Pop Corn And Make Up


valeriek

Recommended Posts

First does any one know what kind of pop corn is safe?

I was wondering if it is really important that I use gluten free make up, tooth paste, body lotion and what ever else i would use. Just wondering if that could be a reason for all the nauseas. And if it is important what do I use?

Thanks

For the popcorn, I'd recommend avoiding those prepackaged, pre-seasoned things, and just make your own. Healthier, safer, and more economical too. I'm sure some are gluten-free, but I don't buy them, so can't suggest any. I've heard the microwave ones have some nasty chemicals lining the bags though.

Yes, it is important to use gluten-free toothpaste, skin/hair care products, etc. There are many threads about such products, and I'm sure you'll also get plenty of suggestions too.

Hi Valerie,

For popcorn, I buy Orville Redenbacher plain kernals in the plastic jar. I make it on top of the stove with a little light olive oil and sea salt.

I would definately check and make sure your personal care products are gluten-free. For me, this made a big difference. I use Crest toothpaste, Dove bar soap, Softsoap liquid soap for hand washing. Garnier makes lots of gluten-free products--call the 800# on the bottle to make sure (their customer service is very nice), as does Dove. I use salon haircare products by Brocato--the Spplash line is gluten-free.

A bunch of us here like Everyday Minerals--

They offer samples, so you can play and figure out what colors look best on you. I use their lip glosses, as well as Burt's Bee's Lip Shimmers. :)

I vote for making your own popcorn also. It's easy and if your pan has a glass lid it is fun to watch. You can get air poppers real cheaply also. You can use all kinds of things to season. Herbs, grated cheeses, butter etc.

It is important to use gluten free make up and toiletries. There is a thread on here for a good mineral makeup and if you do a board search you may be able to find info on whether products you like are safe or not.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  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.
