Could someone tell me some over the counter products that are gluten free. Things like shampoo, conditioner, hair spray, deodorant and such. I go to the sights and get no real answer. Thank you so much as I am on a limited budget as I don't work now.

Most product are. I tend to avoid some like Aveeno (sp?) that has oatmeal, but most are fine.  just bring a magnifying glass to the store to read the teeny tiny labels.

You don't need to worry about things like stick deodorant. Just worry about the things that might get in your mouth.

Like Nicole said, bring your reading glasses - the wheat germ oil in the hair spray is pretty obvious in the ingredient list. :)

Thank you so much, it seems like a lot of things have gluten and it seems so hard at times.

I just read the labels to make sure that there are no gluten ingredients.

 

If possible, I buy stuff that is labelled gluten free.

It IS hard at times.  Just give yourself a few extra minutes when shopping, to read labels, and you'll do fine. :)

I use either Garneir products or Suave. Both will label clearly and are inexpensive.

I didn't check it for being gluten free, but I am using Ban deodorant (green container). I bought it in Sept. and it is now Feb. and I am still on the same container! It lasts forever. So budget-wise, if you are looking for something that isn't too expensive and lasts a long time, I recommend that!

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
