Nail polish??

I've heard that some nail polishes have gluten in them, but can you really get sick from it? The only instances of hand to mouth contact would be if I've eaten with my hands or when flossing. Unless you bite your nails I would imagine that the chance of getting sick is pretty small. Also, what about getting your nails done at a nail salon? I've never noticed any kind of reaction from painting my nails (and i paint them pretty often), though I don't know if the nail polish I use has gluten in it. Even if it does, is it okay to keep using it? 

Also, what brands are gluten free? What about Sinful Colors? That's the brand I use most often.. Thanks!

Gabriel makes Certified Gluten Free nail polish.  I can't vouch for any since I don't use it.  Don't know about your brand.

I know that Jamberry Nails are gluten free.  I have used them with great success.  do not know about any others or even it it is okay to use them.  I am curious to find out as well.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done recently?

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.

      It's not uncommon to experience some bleeding with hemorrhoids but I doubt enough to materially effect your iron levels. About your constipation. Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? 25-30 grams per day is the adult recommendation. Eggs and chicken have zero fiber. One medium apple or one average banana will have about 3 g. of fiber. A serving of oatmeal will have 3-4 g. Just to give you an idea. It's harder than you think to get 25-30 g of fiber. You have to plan for it and work at it. Getting plenty of hydration is important as well.
