Toothpaste

I have so many questions: I hope you all don't get sick of me running around the message boards throwing them in.

I was curious about toothpaste. I read somewhere that Crest is gluten free; which is what I use, but it is some teeth whitening kind. I am undiagnosed so I don't know if my toothpaste problem is related or not, but whenever I brush my teeth 10-15 mins. later I get a few waves of nausea, and then it goes away. Has anyone else here had this happen? I am curious if it is another symptom or not. Thanks!

ALL Crest toothpastes are gluten-free. Colgate is gluten-free. Arm and Hammer is gluten-free. Virtually every toothpaste I've ever heard of is gluten-free.

I use Crest without issues (and I use different forms of Crest....sometimes I can't find one in the stores)......

Second, don't apologize for posting :) ....after all, the whole point of the board is to share experiences, ask a lot of questions, and get answers...if you couldn't ask questions, then this wouldn't be much help.....so don't apologize for asking questions..... :D We're happy to answer them if we can.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
