Contamination From Kissing...

Not sure if i posted this in the right area..But this might seem like a silly question until i realized last night that my bf had pizza for dinner, then i went out with him, and thought could i get contaminated from kissing him b/c he just had pizza?

He brushed his teeth after he ate, but then i thought, what toothpaste did u use?!? :blink:

This is so much to think about!

it's possible to get contaminated from kissing BUT if he brushed his teeth after he ate that significantly reduces the risk. I don't know which toothpastes do contain gluten, so can't help you there. I use colgate and it's fine.

I acutally never thought of this, my boyfriend did and he is not even Celiac. But when I was first diagnosed, he was worried about contaminating me and when we go out he will just rinse his mouth with his drink and then until he can brush his teeth he will only kiss me on my cheek or my forehead. He is so cute. But yes you should def. be concerned with this espically if you are very sensitive like me. I also use colgate, just ask him I am sure that he will understand. :)

Yep contamination from kissing is possible..believe me..I have been there...my bf now is not gluten free and he drinks something gluten free before kissing me and makes sure he gets the stuff down and we have not had a problem since. He is very respectful about it:)

      Welcome to he forum community, @DjinnDjab! You wrote: "i just found out i may have celiac. so needless to say i no longer have friends or relationships." Are you saying that the need to eat gluten free has resulted in losing all your friends and your entire social life?

      i am a 37 yo male and this describes me perfectly. on a scale of 1-10, i am at 8. 9. 10, 11 for 8-12 hours a day, 6-7 days a week. this has been going on for about 5 years and i just found out i may have celiac. so needless to say i no longer have friends or relationships so i spend a lot of time with myself. and uhhh what really sucks is uhh, sorry to say, "enjoying myself" is a trigger for this pain. i can be fine all day until i take 5 mins to "myself" and then its all downhill from there. this has robbed me of every.single.thing in my once colorful life.

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.
