Non-GFCO Products That Are Tested to be Gluten Free

I can only use certified products, but GFCO doesn't really do much skincare or not edible. I reached out to a ton of companies and found safe cleaning products/makeup/skincare/haircare that aren't certified. Here's the emails I got from the ones that sounded the most safe/reassuring.

 

Cleaning products

1. Puracy

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns about gluten in our products. I completely understand the importance of this information given your celiac disease, and I’m here to provide clarity.

Puracy products are 100% gluten-free, and our manufacturers do not use any gluten in their facilities. Additionally, they thoroughly sanitize all equipment between uses, ensuring that our products are safe from cross-contamination at levels that could affect even microscopic bacteria. This rigorous cleaning protocol ensures that there are no traces of gluten in our products, making them safe for individuals with severe allergies or celiac disease.

If you have any more questions or need further information, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help ensure you have a safe and positive experience with our products!

Best regards,

Donna

Hello Michaella688,

Thank you for reaching out to us. All products are gluten-free. We do not share a facility, we only make our own products in them. 

Please let me know if you have any other questions. 

 

Skincare

1. Andalou

We take our responsibility to consumers very seriously, especially those with gluten sensitivity. Once a formula is finalized we send it for testing at the University of Nebraska's Food Allergy Research and Resource Program (FARRP) for reassurance that the final formula is indeed gluten free and safe for those with celiac disease and gluten sensitivities. 

We are committed to the consumers’ right to know, and we believe in transparent labeling practices. You may rest assured that what you read on our label is exactly what is in our product.

At Andalou Naturals we know you have a choice when it comes to your personal care, which is why we believe in using ingredients that are Non-GMO, gluten free verified, certified organic, nature derived, vegetarian, vegan, sustainably sourced and fair trade, and always cruelty free, so that our health-minded consumers can rely on our products to always be as efficacious as they are good for you.

Have a beautiful day!

From Mariana at the Andalou Naturals Consumer Care Team

Hi Mika,

Thank you for your email!

We have our own facility and we test products for gluten. We are not gluten free certified yet since we just moved facilities.

I hope it clarifies!

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      Thanks I am mostly looking for everyday staples and easy meal ideas nothing too specialty if possible.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?
