My son is 5 years old and was diagnosed almost 2 years ago. He has gluten free tooth paste, shampoo and bubble bath. Since we kiss our son do we need to worry about what we use, especially what we put on our face? Chapstick? Make-up? Shaving Cream? Face lotion? Thank you!!!

What a great question!  

I used a gluten free (no gluten ingredients) lipstick/gloss/moisturizer prior to my diagnosis for my gluten-free hubby.  I also bought gluten-free hand lotion that we could all use.  It just made it easier (weird that I ended up having to be gluten free).   Odds of getting glutened by kissing?  Probably low, but why take chances?  I think kids who consume gluten probably “gluten” adults in most cases.  

Old member “Jebby”  (aka The Patient Celiac)

reported getting glutened by her four small children.  I believe her.  She is a preemie baby doctor.  She had her entire house go gluten free after she had her kids tested.  It just made it easier for her.  

So glad you are being so supportive!  Someday, your son will thank you.

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.

      Thank you! This is very helpful. Quick followup: what is your recommendation re: gluten-free prepared foods (labeled gluten-free or certified gluten-free) during this time of being more strict about eating gluten-free? Is it necessary to eat only whole foods prepared at home, or is it safe to include prepared / packaged foods in her diet (I'm thinking particularly of snack foods)?

      Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?
