Gluten-Free Hand Lotion?

Kias4

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a verified gluten-free hand lotion, not just one that doesn't contain gluten ingredients.  I am having issues with cross-contamination according to my recent blood test, so I need to be extra diligent.  Right now I am using a labeled gluten-free body lotion for my hands, but it leaves my hands much more slippery than I'd like.  I'd love to find a hand lotion that soaks in quickly.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

I use Jason's products.  They are certified gluten free and I've been happy with everything I have purchased so far.   Open Original Shared Link  They carry the line at Whole Foods if you have one nearby, otherwise they do sell off of their website.  I've been using this one as kind of an all over lotion and it's nice and thick but soaks in very quickly:  Open Original Shared Link

Thank you! I'm actually allergic to avocado, which is in Jason's gluten-free hand lotion.  Go figure. :)

Indeed, many lotions have gluten in them, and those that don't are subject to cross-contamination just like food.  If you never put your hands in your mouth and always wash them before you cook, then you may be fine with gluten lotions.  However, I bite my nails and have to lotion my hands frequently because I have dry skin.  Fortunately, my friend found me gluten-free hand lotion the other day.  It's EOS brand (which also makes gluten-free lip balm).  She found it at Bed, Bath, & Beyond in the travel cosmetics section.  It says gluten-free on the package.  :)

Oh boy, well that won't work.  You got me curious so I did some surfing and found this:  Open Original Shared Link  Maybe there is something in that list that will work?

I actually found EOS hand lotion, which I LOVE, and is gluten-free!  I originally bought it at Bed, Bath, and Beyond (random, I know), but I also saw it at Target the other day in the checkout lane.  It's non-greasy and absorbs quickly.  Definitely recommend. :)

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
