We've only been gluten free for about three weeks, already its made a remarkable improvement on my 2 year old. He's already started to put weight back on, thank god for that Gluten free pantry sandwich bread. Then i started wondering, after reading some posts, what about his shampoo, baby wash, etc. We use Johnsons baby wash now, the pink lotion stuff, and i have been using loreal kids shampoo for both kids. I know my son gets water in his mouth, half the time i think he drinks half the bath water, as disgusting as this sounds. I looked at the back of the bottle, but it is completely foriegn to me. Anyone know, have suggestions?

Baby Magic is good. The plain ol J&J stuff is good, but call if you have any doubts. I'm floundering in the bubble bath dept. too. Watch out for lotions too. Curel caused a major reaction in my daugher that took a while to figure out. Now using Lubriderm. Glad he's doing better!

I like the baby magic brand for soap. As far as lotion, we use Suave, it's gluten free and works pretty good.

My girls are starting to get to where we can use "real shampoo" so I am letting them use my Dove.

Ivory (last I checked) is gluten free if you are looking for a bar soap (my kids like to wrap it in a washcloth and make bubbles)

Oh, and I just started this thred here for you, and others in case you needed more info.

The last time I checked (about a year ago):

Johnson and Johnson- all the liquid soaps and shampoo were ok; also the hair detangler is ok

Baby Magic- all the liquid soaps and sunscreens

Loreal shampoos- ok

Suave for Kids Shampoo- ok

Kan-doo- all are ok

Also, I just checked all the baby wipes this week and Pampers, Huggies, and Equate (Walmart) were ok.

Most of the kid products companies, like Johnson and Johnson, are good about answering your questions.

I would recommend California Baby, too. I was using the shampoo and bodywash myself for a while! I still use the Sensitive Skin Lotion and sunscreen. Good stuff :)

we use Suave kids shampoo and Kiss My Face Olive and Aloe lotion, she likes Irish Springs bar soap and dial liquid soap... she doesn't like bubble bath so I don't have that issue.

I like CA Baby, Aubrey Organics and BeanTreeSoap

There are so many good ones in the health market these days!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
