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!

I have been  gluten free for over ten years.

 

I use:

 

Lubriderm lotion

Dove shampoo

Red Apple Lipstick (one line order and awesome) ...this is a start.  You can venture out a bit later. :

 

And hair stray - ick -don't do that.

Tom's of Maine's products are all gluten free.

      Oops! @Staticgypsy, I’ll get the book! Thank you! 
    • JudyLou
      Thank you so much for your help, @trents and @Staticgypsy! I so appreciate your thoughts. My diet is high in foods with oxalates and I don’t notice any issues there. If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was many years into gluten-free eating (and was much more careful at that point), I’m just baffled. Many, many thanks to you both.

      I did'nt know that, I will check what specifically the blood tests were for. Thanks
    • trents
      Sorry, @JudyLou, as reread your post, I see that you have had gene testing done already.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Mark Conway! Can you be more specific about the "coeliac" test your doctor did? There are more than one of them. What was the name of the test? Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you are IGA deficient, the IGA celiac blood antibody tests used to check for celiac disease per se will not be accurate. Also, if you have been cutting back on gluten before the tests, that will render them invalid. You must have be eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months before the blood draw to render valid test results.
