I myself wouldn't know since I am lucky to grab a 5 minute shower before the kids are pounding at the door for something or other (any form of pampering in this household is strictly prohibited..... <_< ) but I did find this at delphi:

Bath and Body Works (800.395.1001) (00/00/00)

Many are gluten-free (but double check....some contain oats and someone was told all products are

gluten-free.... I wouldn't trust it on face value)

Sounds like only the ones with oats are questionable, and I guess that depends on what your take on oats are. Some believe they are safe, some do not.......

Rhiannon is 7, and I have twin boys who are 4. Don't even get me started on the bathroom breaks. Having chronic diarrhea and small children do not mix. Having to be in the bathroom 20 times a day, they are constantly knocking on the door, absolutely no comfort there (not that there's any comfort in having diarrhea, but still.......... :D ) Either that, or the boys will pick the times that I am in the bathroom to decide to fight over a particular toy or book or tv channel, whatever. Ah, the joys of motherhood :rolleyes:

It was nice of your hubby to get you a gift card for that. My hubby knows me all too well. He knows my first choice were I to get a gift card would be to have one from Home Depot (I am a real do-it-yourself fixer upper. I just finished fixing the toilet - needed a new flapper tank ball.)

Hugs.

Bath and Body works clearly labels oats in the ingredients, and they are not in every product.

I've found that most if not all of the regular lotions contain oats, but the thicker body creams seem to be ok.

Can anyone back that up?

I remember being in there at Christmas time and getting very depressed :( All of my favorites have oats in them. I found a foot cream that did not have oats. Needless to say I left without a bag. If you have found some that are oat free please post. I would love to go and get a bag!

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
