I'm pretty sure Jenvan said their entire hair line was gluten-free-including the honey wheat! i love their tea tree triple treat shampoo, but I also found Lavender vanilla snow body butter at Wild Oats the other day and it smells like heaven! There's no gluten on the ingredients list but before I go on a mad shopping spree, I want to see if anyone knows more.

I tried to go to their website, but it's very annoying. You have to sit through all these slides before you can get to the product info. Thanks, B

Their website IS annoying--I hated it!! :) And yes, the entire line is gluten-free--even the Golden Wheat shampoo--which is pretty funny! I use a shampoo, conditioner, LA mousse and hairspray from them. Buy away! :P

I spoke with them within the last month--I was also told their entire line was gluten-free!

Thanks guys --this sounds great! What store are you seeing them in? We have Whole Foods and Wild Oats. We have a few other smaller stores, maybe I'll check there, too. :)

I have definately seen it at Whole Foods. Also, my small, local health food store carries a few of their products.

They told me that the whole line is gluten free as well:) I use their products sometimes and they are good.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
