Curel skin care

Hi everyone,  

It has been awhile since I have been on here.  You helped me out so much back when I was first diagnosed 11 years ago I am sure you can help me again.  I am having a problem right now (Covid is not bad enough 😷) and thought I would ask your opinions.  I have been having a gluten problem for the last couple weeks and trying to figure it out.  I just realized today that I had started using a new skin lotion by Curel about the time that this started.  In the beginning of becoming gluten free I had a problem with shampoo so if shampoo can do it to you I am sure skin lotion can also.  Has anyone had a problem with Curel? The ingredients seem ok but I have seen a couple comments from 10 years or so ago that it had gluten but is not supposed to now.  Can you help?  Thanks in advance.  Stay Safe!

Susan

I'm not sure of the exact product you have, but on their site:

https://www.curel.com/en-us/products/dry-skin-care-therapy/

They list the following ingredients, and I don't believe any contain gluten, but there is a little warning at the end:

Yes I saw the warning and also read some posts that in the past it did contain gluten but not supposed to now.  It is 3 days since I quit using it and I feel fine now so not using it again.  I went through a similar situation with a Calcium product where there was no gluten in the ingredients but when the company checked it out there was gluten.  So hard to trust any thing you read.   Here is the product I tried - the unscented one.  https://www.curel.com/en-us/products/fragrance-free-lotion/

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
