Crest Pro Health Rinse

I don't recall seeing a discussion on mouthwash, but am fairly new to the site, so there may have been one and I missed it. Following is the response that I got back from Crest on their Pro Health Rinse:

"Our Crest raw material ingredients are proprietary and aren't shared outside the company. Since you're sensitive to gluten, you may not want to use Crest Pro Health Rinse."

Has anyone gotten any different response from Crest, or is there a mouthwash out there that is gluten-free?

Thanks!

Tom

Alot of the Listerine mouthwashes are gluten free. I use FreshBurst and was told that it is gluten free. I use it with no problems.

They do say their products are gluten free but that they can't guarantee that there was no cross contamination

(this is a standard response from companies to cover their butt)

You may want to check the Delphi List under Health and Beauty Products because that should have information as well on mouthwashes.

On the Crest website though it tells you that NO current Crest products contain gluten:)

When the Crest Pro Rinse came out several months ago, we called Crest and got the same answer. So we don't use this stuff.

I just tried using it, have not eaten out in two weeks, only eat fresh meat fruits vegetables and a few dedicated products. Accidentally swallowed a little, and had a very severe gluten reaction to the mouthwash, I'm sure.

Is Crest toothpaste bad too? If so what are the safe toothpastes?

I don't know the answer to whether crest is gluten-free but I use Tom's of Maine. I like the cinnamint. The package breaks down where all the ingredients come from and as far as I know all their toothpastes are gluten free.

My bad but could someone list the mainstream companies that offer gluten free toothpaste and mouthwash, thanks in advance.

Tom's of Maine should be available everywhere, in mainstream grocery stores. They make both toothpaste and mouthwash. I don't know exactly what you mean by "mainstream" but unless you mean "not made from natural ingredients" I would consider Tom's to be mainstream. ;)

Mainstream in this context refers to the products that most consumers (the masses) buy. Something you would find at Wal-Mart or Target would be considered mainstream, something you could find in almost every state for example. Crest, Colgate, Aquafresh...

Was sick for a week straight. The only thing I did different was use the Crest Pro Health Rinse. When I called them they informed me that "though they do not put gluten in the product, they do not test" nor do they ask the suppliers for that product. She did tell me that other than the Pro Health, their toothpastes are gluten free.

I have an 2008 email from ACT Restore, confirming that their products are gluten free.

      Gluten-free bread

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Checkouts gluten-free recipes at twww.redstaryeast.com We tried a bread machine years ago and weren’t happy with results. Bread machines have pre-set rise & bake times.  Unfortunately, the program doesn’t adjust to slight differences when measuring, relative humidity or temperature of ingredients & in kitchens.  Lots of efforts for ONE odd- sized loaf that hard to cut into useable slices.  College-aged son found best use for bread machine was as heavy duty mixer that ‘kept dust in the box.’  He would pre-measure ingredients for 2-3 loaves & use machine mix up individual batches.      Since gluten-free bread needs  to rise only once, each recipe of dough went into a loaf pan. Pans sat counter to rise—time dependent of temp in kitchen. Then, baked in oven until he, not machine, decided it was done.     Took ~10 min extra up front to measure & mix additions but adds nothing to rise & bake times.     Loaves are great for slicing (Slice extra before freezing!). One mess to clean up, saves time & energy since you need to bake  as is half as often (If  you plan to bake lots more than bread, opt for KitchenAid/ heavy duty mixer instead.  Cover with dish towel to capture dust!)     Personally, I’m sure I had as a kid since I’ve never been a fan  of bread. .  Have been wrapping corn tortillas around things for 40+ years.  Can still get a dozen 12-pks of tortillas for same or less than price as 1 load of gluten-free bread. PLUS. the tortillas have more nutrients!

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By CelestialScribe · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. You are lucky because in Korean food, many classic meals such as bibimbap without sauce, barbecue meats and some kinds of soups generally do not have gluten. But it is a good idea to confirm with the restaurant workers for safety reasons. Regarding certain locations, I enjoy going to places such as Plant in Seoul and Sprout in Busan. Moreover, using applications like HappyCow or TripAdvisor can assist you to discover additional choices in the regions you plan to visit. One big tip: it is good to know some important Korean sentences, for example 'I cannot eat gluten' (geulluteuneul meogeul su eopseoyo)  or 'Does this have gluten?' (igeoe neun geulluteuni deureo innayo?) because they can be very helpful. If you are considering getting a local guide, I'd suggest this one https://gowithguide.com/korea They were very helpful when I needed to find places with gluten-free food options because they provide tours tailored to your preferences. Good luck with your travels! 🍻

      It is concerning.  Unfortunately a lot of doctors don’t know a lot about celiac disease, even some gastroenterologists.  Here is an article for you: Celiac disease and miscarriage I hope you have a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby!

      Undiagnosed (and thus untreated) celiac disease is associated with a higher chance of miscarriage. The downside of continuing to eat gluten now is increased chance of miscarriage. The downside of stopping gluten now and having to restart later to get a clear, official diagnosis is that you might have worse symptoms eating gluten after being gluten free, but it wouldn’t affect your baby. I know which one I would choose!
