Barley In My Deodorant?!

I'm new to getting rid of gluten. I've been hopefully gluten-free for 3 weeks now. :rolleyes: However in addition to discovering that my hairspray has wheat and hydrolyzed wheat protein in it, now I see my deodorant has barley in it! :blink:

Are there any generally safe soap/shampoo lines and cosmetic lines?

Well the hairspray I would switch because that you could definately ingest because of the spray, but if you're deoderant is roll on I wouldn't really worry about it. Maybe others will have a different opinion but I've never licked my deoderant.

I get reactions just touching gluten (yeah even if I don't eat it) so all my personal care stuff is gluten free.

Dove is pretty good about disclosing ingredients, and I haven't found anything of theirs with gluten yet (but you should always read it every time you buy it) they make shampoo, conditioner and deoderant.

As far as hairspray, I use White Rain, but I don't know about other brands' gluten status. You would have to just read.

I was getting acne on my scalp until I realized I was using a shampoo with wheat in it. I have the Delphi list. Their list of safe health and beauty stuff is too big to copy and post. Here's how to get it.

1) Go to the website, Open Original Shared Link

2) Click on "messages" or "start reading"

3) Select the folder "gluten-free Product List"

4) Click on the topic called "Downloadable files word"

5) Of the four options, choose the one in the upper right.

You may need to register (the basic version is free) in which case, just register first, then complete the steps above.

Interesting. Ok I take back my deoderant comment.

I use the dove deodorant, and all their hair products. when i was playing soccer, i would always have the hairspray for my team because i knew what i could use, and i would always use Dove extra hold, that is also what we used in the dressing room at theatre when i was little.

DOVE all the way!

Thank you very much for your suggestions! Looks like Dove is the way to go. I already use Dove shampoo and conditioner and like it. I'm going to switch to their hairspray and deodorant also.

Thanks Girl Ninja for the link to the gluten-free file! that sounds great.

I'll add my support for Dove too! I'd be lost without their foaming face wash. It's so good to my skin!

      Oral thrush question

      Hi Everyone, I do appreciate your replies to my original post. Here is where I am now in this journey. I am currently seeing a Naturopath. One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD. My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow. She has put me on some digestive enzymes...

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Oral thrush question

      Hi @JulieRe. I just found your post. It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida. I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment. In the meantime, I have been working with a functional...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct r...

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
