Hi there...I have recently purchased online the new moisturizing lotion from Clinique.  I found the link below, from what I can gather it appears that Clinique have introduced Barley into their new product...I cannot believe that they would do that and yet it looks to be correct...what are your thoughts please?

I am glad it is clearly labeled with (barley).  I will not use this product because of the cross contamination.  Not like a person would intentionally eat a face cream; but dipping your fingers into what is basically poison to us and expect to stay healthy!!?

No way would I use this product. It is bound to get in my mouth!

I use Cerave that can be found at Target for my lotions (thanks KarenG for the recommendation!). One of their facial lotions acts as a sunscreen as well. I use a lot of coconut oil too and it actually gets absorbed into the skin. I like the smell reminds me of the beach!

I cannot comprehend the logic behind changing Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion. 

 

By introducing Barley into the mix they have effectively cut their sales "Dramatically" 

 

I cannot help but wonder why, why it was necessary, and why they even thought it was a good idea to change something that works, and has worked well for years!!    I do believe this will stop many people that have purchased this product in the past, myself included.   I recently noticed that after I had applied the cream my eyes would start to water, and my nose itched, which is why I decided to take a closer look at this cream. 

 

I wonder does this make me one of those people that are really sensitive to Gluten then?

      Celiac Brand for Indian grocery

      While spices, lentils, beans and chickpeas are naturally gluten-free, the main concern with any brand is cross-contamination during processing and packaging. Since Suraj doesn't appear to certify their products as gluten-free or use dedicated gluten-free facilities, there is some risk of trace gluten exposure, especially with their corn flour which could...

      Celiac Brand for Indian grocery

      Hi, wanted to see if I can buy Suraj brand spices, lentils beans and chickpeas and corn maze flour. Are they safe for celiac people following gluten free diet. Please let me know if I can use this brand or which another brand will you recommend.

      Chest pain from celiac

      It sounds like you've done an amazing job managing your health since going gluten-free in 2007, and it must be incredibly frustrating to experience these unexplained chest pains now. Since you were never formally tested for celiac disease, we can't rule out whether you have celiac or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), but your clear symptom improvement...

      While spices, lentils, beans and chickpeas are naturally gluten-free, the main concern with any brand is cross-contamination during processing and packaging. Since Suraj doesn't appear to certify their products as gluten-free or use dedicated gluten-free facilities, there is some risk of trace gluten exposure, especially with their corn flour which could be milled on shared equipment with gluten-containing grains. For absolute safety, I'd recommend looking for brands that are certified gluten-free by organizations like GFCO - good options include McCormick for spices, TruRoots or Bob's Red Mill for lentils and beans, and Anthony's for corn flour. That said, if you need to use Suraj products, be sure to carefully check labels for any wheat warnings, thoroughly rinse lentils and beans before cooking, and consider contacting the manufacturer directly to ask about their gluten testing protocols. Many in our community have found that investing in certified gluten-free brands gives them greater peace of mind and helps avoid accidental gluten exposure, especially for higher-risk items like flours.

      Dapsone, commonly prescribed for dermatitis herpetiformis (the itchy gluten-related skin condition), comes with several potential side effects that patients should monitor. The most frequent issues include blood-related problems like hemolytic anemia (especially in those with G6PD deficiency, which is more common in certain ethnic groups) and methemoglobinemia that can cause fatigue, shortness of breath, or bluish skin. Many patients also experience headaches, nausea, dizziness, or skin sensitivity to sunlight. While these effects are often manageable, there are rare but serious risks including dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (with fever, rash and organ inflammation), liver problems, or severe anemia that require immediate medical attention. That's why doctors typically monitor blood counts and liver enzymes regularly during treatment. A crucial tip: proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole can interfere with dapsone's effectiveness, so discuss all medications with your doctor. If you develop fever, unexplained fatigue, yellowing skin/eyes, or a spreading rash while on dapsone, stop taking it and contact your healthcare provider right away. For celiac patients specifically, remember that strict gluten-free eating may eventually reduce or eliminate the need for dapsone to control dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms over time.

      Welcome to the forum, @Betsy Crum! That you have either celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) seems not to be in doubt as the classic symptoms of headache, fatigue, diarrhea, brain fog, etc.) cleared up when you went gluten free. The chest pains with breathing difficulty onset being so quick after the consumption of gluten, even in the early years, suggests to me that phenomenon is not related to gluten intolerance. It sounds more like an allergic reaction. Perhaps this has been extended to include other food proteins. Have you had any allergy testing done?

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you've done an amazing job managing your health since going gluten-free in 2007, and it must be incredibly frustrating to experience these unexplained chest pains now. Since you were never formally tested for celiac disease, we can't rule out whether you have celiac or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), but your clear symptom improvement on a gluten-free diet suggests gluten was definitely a trigger. The chest pain you describe could have several possible causes. First, it might not be gluten-related at all - many people with gluten issues develop new sensitivities over time, especially to foods like dairy, soy, or high-FODMAP ingredients. Acid reflux (GERD) is another strong possibility, as it can cause nearly identical chest pain and may be triggered by foods other than gluten. Stress and anxiety can also manifest physically this way, particularly if you're worried about accidental gluten exposure. And of course, it's always wise to rule out any cardiac issues with your doctor. I'd recommend keeping a detailed food and symptom diary for a few weeks, noting everything you eat along with stress levels and symptoms. Trying a brief elimination diet of common irritants (like dairy or acidic foods) might reveal new triggers. If the pain persists, seeing a gastroenterologist could help identify whether you've developed something like GERD, EoE (eosinophilic esophagitis), or other digestive conditions that can cause similar symptoms. Please don't blame yourself - our bodies change over time, and what worked for 15 years might need adjusting now. Your pain is real and worth investigating, even if gluten isn't the culprit this time. Many in our community have gone through similar experiences, so you're definitely not alone in this frustration!
