Want To Stop Itching?

HI

I've learned so much from the forum and now I'll share a product you all have talked about.

I was itching so badly and have seen so many posts about this and esp today with the Dove soap thread.

I just know this product has WORKED LIKE A MIRACLE FOR ME.

I got the body lotion, shampoo and conditioner and stopped itching right away.

I got the small bottles to sample to see if it worked and then went back and ordered the large bottles.

The nice thing is you order on line and all shipping costs are $3.99 no matter how much you order.

It comes within 2-3 days of getting your order. I think i ordered it at 11:00 pm on a Tuesday nite and had it on Thurs or Fri that same week.

I know there have been other posts re: this product on line so if you want to do a 'search' using the name I'm sure you'll find alot of other people who have good things to say.

Last time they threw in a free bar of soap to try.

Love this company.

I hope it works for you! I also hope this is the correct web site. I'm afraid to minimize this to ck and risk losing it. Do a PM to me at judy@jl-studio.com and i'll send it to you if this doesn't work.

I sent you a note re- my test #'s but not sure where they went:) :)

when did you send it?

when did you send it?

about 1/2 hr ago.

It was a cut and paste from the post re: test results

My test results on on that thread.

I also sent one to the gal who you just wrote to re: colon test and prep and don't know where it went either.

Hope you had a great Turkey day.

Welcome to the board. Are you being strict with the gluten free diet and avoiding iodine? While DH doesn't need iodine to flare iodine will keep the antibodies in the skin and increase the intensitiy of a gluten reaction.

Go with as much whole food as you can and be really strict with food, preperation and toiletries and the DH will go away but it does take time.

I've head to toe itching from June this year. I messed around with mistakes, tempations and after month or so of grief I got serious about going gluten-free. I started healing but I would still be itching all day/night.

NOTE: This is extreme and certainly not necessary for most forum members.

But CindyLouWho26 you might like to hear what is finally working for me:

FOOD:

I have had to get super super strict with my diet. 90% or more is meat, veg, fruit. I eat rice or rice noodles some days. There is one gluten-free brand of cereal (and only rice or corn flakes, rice pasta. Any of the ones containing too many ingredients is a problem) that I can tolerate.

This has allowed me a lot of freedom to experiment. Added raisins one day and spent 24 hours itching like crazy. Baked gluten-free cupcakes and only ate a little bit and itched. I have been able to add a tiny little bit of gluten-free soysauce. And yesterday I tried a gluten-free satay/peanut sauce that I didn't react to. Yey! finally something with flavour and no crazy additives.

HOUSEHOLD CLEANING:

I wear gloves to do the dishes and clean the house. I found any detergents irritated lumps and bumps on my wrist/hands.

Double check your laundry detergent. I use liquid as the powdered ones gave me trouble for years.

BATHROOM:

I have been washing myself (hair included) with bicarb soda. I hadn't had much luck finding safe products that were affordable (I'm in Australia). I did this reluctantly and doubtfully but figured it was worth having a go! Ive been doing this for about four weeks and my skin is so good now!! I won't be rushing out to replace that bicarb soda ;)

I'm going to try something natural(such as avocado, for conditioner).

I've avoided makeup for years ((I now know why :blink: ))

I'm still use a nasty ingredient deoderant but only if I need it and hope to replace that with something natural.

In the last four weeks I have had a *massive* improvement in my itching. I had a rough night last night after too much seafood but all day today is probably the most itch-free day I've had since all this started. And I am saving a LOT of money.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
