I just found out a month ago that I have Celiac disease. I happen to be an incredibly sensitive case. I have removed absolutely everything gluten inside my house including all of my cookware and replaced it all.

I did that as well with everything in my bathroom cupboards. The only thing I didn't think about was my hair dye. I did a quick Google search about Feria extreme platinum hair dye and they say that it is gluten-free on a research that I have looked at.

I can promise you it is not gluten-free. I have a head full of dermatitis herpetiformis, my hands are also breaking out where the dye has touched my skin. I got insanely dizzy within 10 minutes of applying it. And my scalp feels like it's on fire.

My ears are so red and hurt so much. I quickly washed my hair with gluten-free shampoo and then put gluten-free conditioner in. Luckily the pain is starting to subside. I also had a hard time breathing for a while.I can assure you there must be gluten in this product. I encourage everyone to stay away from it if you are sensitive.

Are there any products that others have tried that work without giving them a reaction? I would really like to know from people who happen to be super sensitive as well. Thank you so much for any information you can provide.

Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry to hear that you got DH from your hair dye.

I am also very sensitive. I color my hair at home using henna from Mehandi.com. I personally use the henna for gray hair medium brown kit as it covers gray hair best. Mix the henna with separate acidic powder at night. The next day wash your hair with shampoo only. Then prepare the indigo paste. Mix both henna and indigo together and apply. Leave it in for four hours. Wash out with conditioner only. I wait two full days before using a normal shampoo with conditioner so the henna/indigo really takes. My scalp gets a little itchy from the residue for those two days, and then it dissipates. No allergic/celiac reaction at all.

Thank you for all that fantastic information. I'm definitely going to look that up next time I go to get a dye box. Certainly is extremely helpful.

I forgot to mention that when you mix the henna with the acid powder use filtered water, and the next day when you prepare the indigo powder, add a teaspoon of salt with more filtered water. The salt makes the indigo work better. Then combine both batches.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      Sigh. I posted this yesterday based on the Safeway website. I went back again today to their website to double check. On the page where they are selling Vanilla Bean flavor, it has a distinct Certified Gluten Free label. Other flavors on the Safeway website didn't have the gluten-free statement. Today I went into the store. None of the flavors I looked at, including Vanilla Bean, have a Gluten Free statement. Is it safe? Who knows. The ingredients are either safe or nearly safe (some have "natural flavor"). There are warnings about "contains milk and soy" but not about wheat - this implies they are safe, but again, who knows. On the other hand, every flavor I checked of their Slow Churn line of ice creams has wheat as an ingredient. 100% not safe.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      Do keep in mind that many of the newly diagnosed have lactose intolerance.  This is because the villi lining the intestinal tract are damaged, and can no longer make the enzyme lactAse which breaks down the milk sugar lactOse.  When the villi grow back (six months to two years), they can again produce the enzyme lactAse, and lactose intolerance is resolved.  However, some people (both those with and without Celiac Disease) are genetically programmed to stop producing lactase as they age.   Do be aware that many processed foods, including ice cream, use Microbial Transglutaminase, a food additive commonly called "meat glue," used to enhance texture and flavor.  This microbial transglutaminase has the same immunogenicity as tissue transglutaminase which the body produces in response to gluten in people with Celiac Disease.  Tissue Transglutaminase (tTg IgA) is measured to diagnose Celiac Disease in blood tests.  Microbial Transglutaminase acts the same as Tissue Transglutaminase, causing increased intestinal permeability and inflammation.   New findings show that microbial transglutaminase may be able to trigger Celiac Disease and other autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.   Microbial Transglutaminase is not required to be listed on ingredients labels as it's considered a processing aid, not an ingredient in the U.S.  Microbial Transglutaminase has been GRAS for many years, but that GRAS standing is being questioned more and more as the immunogenicity of microbial transglutaminase is being discovered. Interesting Reading:  Microbial Transglutaminase Is a Very Frequently Used Food Additive and Is a Potential Inducer of Autoimmune/Neurodegenerative Diseases https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8537092/

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/
