I have been trying to search the boards before asking. I was wondering if anyone knows if these products are ok:

Wakmart brand of bluemint mouth rinse

Suave 24 hour deoderent

Cover girl brow and eye brow line

Revlon color stay foundation

maybeline coverstick concealer and maybeline full n soft mascara waterproof

Rimmel products like say matte pressed powder and bronzer

dove sensitive skin bar

Are there any make up product lines that are gluten free and not really exspensive?

Do I have to worry about dental floss??

The Delphi List may help as a guideline with products. It has alot of makeup on there including brands you mentioned.

Dove is a brand that will not hide anything and they will clearly list wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label if it contains any.

The Bare Escentuals makeup line is gluten free(but not their skin care line)

You do have to check anything and everything including dental floss. When you go to the dentist and they clean your teeth and work in your mouth you have to check the products that they use because some do contain gluten.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions :)

I contacted Walmart by phone and email....they have NO Clue about gluten. I wrote Butler/ GUM and their dental floss is gluten-free. Revlon and Maybeline answered when I inquired about Gluten " We can not guarentee our products do not contain gluten".

has anyone ever found a dental floss that does contain gluten?

Crest makes the Glide dental floss. I called them today and they told me that their toothpaste and Glide dental Floss is ok.

They did day that they have a new product called Pro Health Mouth Wash that may contain traces of Gluten, so they advised me to stay away from it.

I do not like to correct anyone, but this is our health at stake here. I do not know if anyone reads the company replies I post so I gave up on posting them...if you want I'll show you the one from DOVE I got 2 days ago. While Gluten may not be an ingrediant listed in their soap, they DO NOT check for cross cantamination and their process lines are NOT pure.

Hi Eeyor fan (my daughter and I love eeyor!),

I'm not sure why you think no one is interested in your responses from various companies but I certainly am and I'm betting that a lot of others are too. I'd love to see the response you got from the Dove people, especially since I use Dove soap (and I'm really itchy lately).

I know that with some companies the replies seem to really vary, for example everyone here says that the make up Bare Essentuails is gluten free (and I do use it and love it) but their reply to me was a bit different... they told me I would have to call on each product, they did say their mineral foundations were gluten-free but as for the rest they told me to call with my list of products that I use. To me that clearly says that the entire line is NOT gluten free.

Anyhow... I'd love to see the response you got from Dove if you care to share it.

Hi, Thanks for writing! We do not specifically test our products for the presence of gluten, a sticky protein found in some grains such as wheat. Gluten may be present in products that contain derivatives of wheat, oat, rye, and barley. In labeling our products, our company follows the guidelines established by the International Nomenclature for Cosmetics; Ingredients (INCI) process. Therefore, if we use an ingredient derived from a grain such as wheat, oat, rye, and/or barley, those names will appear on the label. One common example is "Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein". If you see this on the label, the material was derived from wheat, so the product may contain gluten. Sadly, we cannot guarantee our products as gluten free since all Dove products travel over the same product lines in manufacturing. Thank you for your interest!

Your friends at Dove

Hope this helps people!

Eeyore is my fave!!

The reason I felt "no one cared" if I posted my findings or not is...I posted this like a week ago in my "Product Updates" and I guess no one read it (there is one letter because these companies are all owned by Revlon and I got the same letter from all 3)!

I'm just trying to help people.

Dear Bridget:

We have received your comments from the Revlon/Almay websites and wish to

thank you for your interest in our products.

Unfortunately, because of the way cosmetic ingredients are made and

transported, we cannot guarantee that a product is gluten-free.

products, please call our Consumer Information Center toll-free at

1-800-473-8566. Our hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
