Does anyone know of one?? I really react to corn. My gums are tore apart from tooth paste. I know it's the tooth paste because I will just brush my teeth without it for a few days if i'm not going any where, and they start to heal. If I'm going somewhere I brush with tooth paste and bam! Bright red and sore gums.

Here are a  couple to check out.. coral white tea tree toothpaste, good  gums, earthpaste, & Himalaya toothpaste.. always read  ingredients to make  sure  there are no ingredients  that you may react too...also  baking  soda  & perioxide  sprinkled  over the  brush works  great....

Face Naturals makes all natural tooth cleansers that are free of all allergens: Gluten, Soy, Corn, etc. Here are the ingredients listed for their peppermint cleanser:

 

Ingredients: (Vegan) organic coconut oil, organic olive oil, organic arrowroot powder, organic stevia leaf, aluminum free baking soda, organic peppermint essential oil (3.10 oz. squeeze tube)

 

I haven't tried their tooth cleanser (yet), but I have ordered a lot of other products from them and I love this company. They always send a free sample with every order, and they also do rewards points...every time you make a purchase you earn points that never expire - and you can use them as money off your next order (or let them accumulate for a bigger purchase) They also almost always offer 10% off with a discount code, and their customer service is great. 

 

By the way, all of their products are free of corn and gluten, in case there is something else you might need! It's worth looking into!

Just plain baking soda works fine. A little strange at first but after a while it is so refreshing you kind of like the taste.

The only thing is Corn is not considered an allergen so they can sneak it in under other names.  I actually bought some the other day and then it got lost. Never made it home! Grrrr! Hate it when that happens..... Thanks everyone!

I don't have a corn intolerance, so of course it is entirely up to you if you feel safe- but when I spoke to their customer service they assured me there was no corn. They include corn as a top allergen. They even knew to tell me that the only product that could be potentially unsafe for me was their oat soap, because they know some people with celiac disease can't tolerate oats/have reaction to oats! But as long as you find something safe, that's all that matters.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
