Crest Pro Health Rinse

Recommended Posts

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.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
