The New Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion From Clinique

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?

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
