Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew is Vaseline intensive care body lotions and lip therapy products were gluten free. From the ingredient lists online I cannot see anything that stands out but I wanted to make sure before I start using them again. Since I have gone gluten free I gave up everything, even using body lotions, but my skin and lips misses it so much. Just wondering if anyone has experience with these products?

I use the plain Vaseline lip therapy with no problems, or Carmex, I was allergic to burts bees. Not gluten, just regular, old fashioned rash and swelling. For body lotion I use cerave. I don't know if vaseline lotion is. All I could find was an old post saying all but Total moisture lotion was. But it was from 2009. You can always call the company if you have your heart set on that one brand

I've used this Vaseline lotion for years, both pre dx & post dx. Gluten free.

For lips I use Blistex Simple & Sensitive

I get very dry skin & lips too & these two products work wonders.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By MagsM · Posted

      Thank you all for your feedback. I did see the Consultant Otolaryngologist today and unfortunately she is not doing any research into potential functional immune or inflammatory mechanism that could be driving Ménière’s. My Mom was diagnosed with Meniere's at my age (58) and then did develop Alzheimer's in her 70's. The consultant mentioned that my Mom's Alzheimer's could have been triggered from the hearing loss due to the Ménière’s. She then went into worst case scenarios which freaked me out entirely (full hearing loss and cochlear implants)! Apparently it is very important to keep those neural pathways (hearing, balance vision etc.) fully functional to stave off potential brain disease like Alzheimer's. I really would like to figure this out and unfortunately do not have a good functional medic in Ireland who would help me in the diagnostic process.  Consultant today has put me on a betahistine 3x per day for the next 6 months. I am also thinking that I will go gluten free and ramp up the B-complex and Benfothiamine (already ordered). I am still trying to source the tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide (TTFD). I'll see where I am in a few months, will also test the gut microbiome and see what those results look like.  Once again, I can't thank you all enough - your amazing knowledge and generous time and guidance is truly appreciated!!

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your frustration is completely understandable—after 13 years of strict gluten-free living and mostly normal antibody levels, it’s disheartening to still see biopsy evidence of lingering damage, especially without clear guidance from your GI. The subtle improvements (like "focal" vs. "patchy" changes) might suggest some healing, but the persistent villous blunting and lymphocytosis raise valid concerns about ongoing low-level inflammation, cross-contamination, or even refractory celiac disease (though your normal antibodies make this less likely). It’s especially frustrating when your symptoms (nausea, pain) are dismissed with generic advice, and communication feels like a game of telephone with nurses. Switching to a more engaged GI is a great step—someone who’ll actually discuss your biopsy results, explore potential hidden gluten exposures (e.g., medications, shared kitchens), and investigate other culprits (like SIBO, motility issues, or food intolerances that often overlap with celiac). Hang in there—you’re advocating for yourself the right way, and your dedication deserves answers, not canned responses. Hope the new GI provides the clarity you need!

      Is it common to develop a wheat allergy in addition to Celiac Disease?

      By Pablohoyasaxa · Posted

      Thanks for the post on Vitamin D.  I have been living in south Florida and have been taking moderately higher doses of vit D. I am considering the Mushroom supplements and exporing Real Mushrooms, the brand. Not sure. If you have any thought, please share. I am curious about all things homeopathic.

      About 9% of celiacs react to the protein in oats (avenin) like they do gluten. The dairy protein casein is also known to damage small bowel villi like gluten does in some celiacs. In addition to that, many manufactured gluten-free food products contain difficult to digest polysaccharides like xanthan gum that are famous for causing digestive distress.

      Your  post is excellent. Thank you!! I have been trying to keep my diet "truly gluten free," but as you know, it's a  sneaky allergy, especially if you have a heightened sensitivity. So ironically, and sadly, no medical person told me to stay away from "gluten free oats.".  To my own fault, my lack of awareness led to years of eating  massive bowls of gluten-free oatmeal, sometimes twice a day. Awful right?  I am sure this added to the recovery time. I think I have been super vigilant for the last 12 months, but I wonder. I  haven't gone to a restaurant in a long time. My wife is frustrated with my social situation but truthfully I need to get this condition over with. Thanks again.
