Sensodyne Toothpaste By Glaxosmithkline

Well, with each passing day I find more an more things that I have thought were safe and I find they are poisoning us.

I called 1-866-844-2797 besides being left on hold for 30 minutes a woman came on that wasn't as nice as I had expected. I asked about the ingredients, and she said I can read you the label. I said I can do that, I ask her to explain to me what the words all ment.

I explained I had food allergies and be came reactive when using their product.

She told me that GlaxoSmithKline can NOT guarantee it does not contain GLUTEN, CORN or SOY.

BEWARE OF SENSODYNE TOOTHPASTE!

I explained how we (Celiac) consumers have started a grass roots movement for change. And how I will post these new finding for millions to read. I shamed them being a drug company and putting ingredients in the products that make us sick. I brought up the fact of the Mc Donald's suit how the company lied to the consumers, and how more companies should explect more suits. And how we are also going to fight to get drug labeling laws so we know what the drug companies are poising us with.

She didn't want to listen and said "I got your point I have to hang up now."

I admire your determination. On the behalf of parents with children on restricted diets, or anyone with restricted diets that can't find 30 minutes to stay on hold, THANK YOU!! Thank you for your input and research that you share with the forum. You have helped so much.

They have always said that their toothpaste has gluten in it - no surprise there. No company will universally eliminate all the items *you* (or any other single person) is intolerant of.

(Personally, I don't want them to eliminate corn in everything. It would drive up prices unnecessarily, and the vast majority of people can tolerate it just fine.)

There are many other toothpastes - including sensitive toothpastes (which I use) - that are safe for us to use. (Well, I admit to not knowing about the corn part, just the gluten and dairy.)

I have switched to AQUA FRESH and have not been reactive from it... The company said they don't use gluten, soy or corn.

Anyone know if there is a thread of 'safe' toothpaste and mouthwash already?

Or what is everyone else using that is free of gluten, soy and corn?

Well said, Tiffany. And no reason for us to piss of all these companies unnecessarily. Especially when they didn't lie about their ingredients and didn't market it as gluten-free to celiacs (or to celiacs at all).

      Patiently Waiting to See Results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      You state in an earlier post that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months?

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.
