Gluten Free Bar Soap - preferably scented


plumbago

My favorite is/was Roger and Gallet, but I think that it might contain gluten (hard to find out). Does anyone have recommendations? Thanks!

Are there ingredients to read? They are usually very proud to call out wheat germ oil or oats ( tho that may not really be a wheat issue).

I don't have the soap with me now so I can't check the label. Looking on line - nothing.

Most of the time I just use plain baking soda (yes seriously- it's a great and gentle exfoliate!)  But what you want is plain soap, as in, the real thing.   Ingredients to look for are sodium tallowate (that's beef tallow, chemically changed by lye), sodium cocoate (coconut oil chemically modified by lye) and another ingredient would be Olive oil- I don't remember the "ate" part, but they all start with sodium.  These are the basic ingredients in bar soap.  Lye is the cause of the saponification process, and when that process is complete the lye goes away, leaving sodium whatever-ate.   If you just stick to plain old soap, you can't really go wrong, as far as gluten is concerned.   I hope that helps.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
