Organic Gluten-free Shampoo And Conditioner


RFisher1974

Recommended Posts

I was just wondering about organic products. Ever since I was diagnosed with Celiac (which was a little over a year ago) I have been reading labels like crazy (obviously). I have begun to convert everything I have to organic products. The biggest issue I have run into is finding organic shampoos and conditioners which do not contain gluten. Does anyone have any recommendations? I would greatly appreciate it. (THANKS!!!) :D:D:D

Thats a great question! I don't know of any--the ones I find all have wheat as well--so I'll be looking forward to the replies.

Have you checked Burt's Bees stuff? I don't know what the ingredients are but I think their whole line is organic. You can buy it online and several of our local stores carry some or all of their products. I am happy with the stuff I do buy.

Trader Joe's has one that is, as I recall, organic and gluten-free.

Would that be the Trader Joe brand, or other?

Check out Aubrey's Organics Rosa marqueta shampoo. It was recommended by Jenvan and I love the stuff too! Beverly

I have used Collective Wellbeing's line for fine hair.....a good shampoo, but not entirely for me. I have oily hair and it was a bit too gentle - my hair would be oily by 5 or 6 pm.

Their own brand. Just check the ingredients for which ones are safe.

good question :) i'm all about the organic/all natural products. As Berneses said, I definitely recommend Aubrey Organics (fav Rosa Mosqueta shampoo). Just be sure to ck ingredients. There is also Giovanni Hair Care products--their entire line is organic and gluten-free. (Even their Golden Wheat Shampoo--it actually has no wheat in it!) They have gel, mousse, hairspray, shampoo, conditioner etc. You can buy them online or at a natural Wild Oats type grocery store. Good stuff !

Jen,

You had mentioned earlier about the California Baby products I saw some of them at Whole Foods but none of their lotions, do they carry it else where? I talked to the manager and he said that he didn't know they even had lotions but that he would look into getting some. Thanks! :)

cornbread Explorer

My vote goes for Giovanni too. :)

Noelle126 Apprentice

I'm really liking the Burts Bees things I bought and also Jenvan thanks for the Rosa Marquetta shampoo idea...it is WONDERFUL!

Angela-

Sorry I missed your question until now... I am able to buy their lotions in a local natural foods store... I know they have some of their products at Whole Foods too. I have also ordered them off their website. Their lotions are here: Open Original Shared Link If you call, they are very helpful. PS--Glad you like the shampoo...I love it too :)

Noelle126 Apprentice

I saw the California Baby brand at Whole Foods but they only had the shampoo! What lotion do you like the most...I'm afraid I like cosmetic products WAY too much...I gave my sister all of my hald used products and man I was thinking "that is so much money in products" but I can't help it I love trying new things...and usually I use it all except I decided to give all of the Gluten containing items to her because I didn't want to "half way" do the Gluten Free thing it was all or nothing...and I chose to be healthy...at first my family was thinking that I was going overboard until that is I gave them this message board website and they have been 100% behind me since.

Ok off of that ramble...

jenvan Collaborator

The Calming lotion is my favorite--it has a fresh, light scent to it with a little lavender. I also like the super sensitive--pretty much no fragrance to that. Glad you got rid of all the bad stuff. I gave away bags of products to friends. I think I stocked my best friend's kitchen and medicine cabinet for months! It is expensive... Anywho, at least those of us who are into trying new products can get excited about that when switching out the old stuff! Also, I did switch to bare escentuals makeup...and my face wash and lotions are Juice Beauty or Boscia now--all natural, no preservatives. I get both on sephora.com or in the store. If you try any of those just make sure you ck the ingredients, I haven't used or cked all their products. The Boscia facial polishing scrub is awesome!!

Noelle126 Apprentice

Jenvan-Thanks so much for all of your help...after reading a lot of your posts you seem to like a lot of things I like!

pixiegirl Enthusiast

I've seen the Boscia stuff in the store, is it all gluten free?

Susan-

I don't know if all their products are gluten-free. I have been checking as I go. But if you go to their website: Open Original Shared Link They list the ingredients to all their products. I've also e-mailed them in the past and they responded. The facial polish I use is: Open Original Shared Link

Angela-

I think we do too :) Go here to see a list of most of the products I use, if you're interested: Open Original Shared Link

Guest BERNESES

Jen- You rock! we like all the same stuff! B

woo hoo! :D

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      These are labeled gluten-free: https://www.amazon.com/Corn-Husks-Tamales-Authentic-Flavorful/dp/B01MDSHUTM/

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.
