I am having engineered hardwood floors installed day after tomorrow and I wonder if there could be gluten in the product? Can't find info anywhere. Have in the past gotten sick from spackle which I did not know contains gluten . Very worried,

No I wouldn't worry about it. I have never heard of gluten being an issue for that type of project. There is no gluten in engineered hardwood floors. 

For drywall and spackle I have heard talk about some that used to contain gluten. I don't think it does anymore.

I would not worry about gluten either.  I would make sure your place is well-ventilated.  Breathing in any adhesives (if used) could make anyone feel ill.

      An observation about psyllium husk

      By transplantwest · Posted

      Psyllium can't sit for more than a minute in the water or it is like drinking sludge. Swallowed fairly soon means it's more like an flavorless undermixed protein smoothie. Chlorophyll ( or two tbsp) really helps the taste, makes it minty. Taking Psyllium and Chlorophyll separately rather than together at first helps determine if there's intolerance to either. Also starting the Psyllium in small doses, starting with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon to tolerate the fiber change.

      Gluten attack severe insomnia and anxiety?

      By DanMc · Posted

      BuddhaBar, I came across this thread while searching online for celiac insomnia (having also scared myself stupid by finding out about fatal insomnia) and it did bring me some piece of mind as it so closely matches my own experience. I know this thread is old now, I hope you're doing well, and thanks for posting your experience.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      By cristiana · Posted

      That's great news, @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour.  And you might find that if you do have asthma, keeping your reflux under control may help, if my experience is anything to go by.
