Geez, I'm on a roll today trying to find culprits to this hideous feeling! Is Lubriderm gluten-free? I thought it was but now am unsure. Maybe we're just all supposed to buy nothing and use nothing and eat only things we swat or find on trees! I'm losing it!!!!! And I feel the planet is losing it as well! Since I think we're kind of a big detriment to the earth as a whole, maybe this is the beginning of humans going down the evolutionary tube!

Thanks, anyone out there.

Can't vouch 100%, but I use it every day. Not the one with oats.

I used it for awhile (the one without oats) and was feeling ill. i called them and they said that they do not know all of their sources so they do not guarantee anything gluten-free. this might not apply to you (this was about in december?), but i wanted to let you know.

It's hard to trust anything you don't make yourself, eh? Gggrrrr...

Thank you. I was using the Lubriderm as a sunscreen but I think I read on here that Banana Boat is gluten-free so maybe I'll try that. I like Burt's Bees, so I'll get some hand cream.

Thank you!

This tread is over three years old. Here is some current information based on the 2009-10 Cecelia's Market Place Gluten Free Grocery Shopping Guide (found in the Gluten Free Mall)

Lubriderm -

Daily Moisture Lotion (Advanced Therapy, Fragrance Free, Regular, Sensitive Skin, w/SPF 15, w/Sea Kelp Extract, w/Shea & Cocoa Butters)

....all gluten free

***just because a company cannot confirm their products gluten free status, does not mean it is not gluten free. Many times its a business CYA statement. Check the ingredients and find a second source.

I dont know where that last quote came from but I just called lubriderm myself this WEEK and was told they cannot guarantee their product is gluten free. I posted this on another part of the board too under something like calls I've made this week. I had called specifically about the sensitive skin lotion, but I believe they said ANY of their products could have cross contamination.

I am celiac and very careful about my diet. I have used Lubriderm for years without any problems, but recently I have developed a rash that looks exactly like dermatitis herpetiformis. Before I realized that there was such a rash, I thought it was just very, very dry skin. So I was using more and more Lubriderm AND guess what -- the rash got worse, really, really worse! I do not know what is in this lotion, but I do not recommend it, to say the least.

I can relate to the frustration.  Some days I get like that.  I try hard to be careful, yet still have problems.  I have seen on the Kiss My Face website that all their products are gluten-free.  I just ordered a Kiss My face grapefruit bergamot hand lotion from amazon and couldn;t wait to get it. My hands have been so dry that they are sore and sting when I get them wet.  The lotion came yesterday and I started happily rubbing it in, and then realized it did not smell like citrus at all.  In fact, it smelled awful.  I couldn't stand it and had to keep washing my hands trying to get the smell out.  I found what might be an expiration date, and if so, it expired in 2016.  It might be rancid and that might be the gross smell.  Now I am seeing if they will refund my money or not.  I felt so frustrated because my hands are so dry and sore.  The two stores in town that used to sell Kiss My face are no longer in business.  I will have to check out a new store in town to see if they sell it (but I have  been feeling so awful I never feel up to going out, I only go for things I must go out to do),  or order directly from Kiss My face.  I do like Kiss My face products a lot. I just wish they had more scents. I'd love to find a gluten-free rose lotion.  If I can't, maybe I can find an unscented one and add rose essential oil.  Rose is suppose to be good for hormonal issues (even in men too, go figure).  Or so I have read and heard.  I also would love to find a gluten-free lotion that helps skin firming and elasticity.

I use cocoanut oil. And I use Shea butter. I bought online. Comes pure straight from Africa.  I checked out Bath and Body shop. It’s all gluten free  I don’t use Lubriderm but my hubby asked me to put it on his back  nothing happened to my hands  but gluten would pass through the pores into your body  and I wouldn’t know it

I have been using a little bit of Lubriderm when I wash my hands because it’s the lotion offered at a place I frequent once a week. Assuming it was gluten-free I bought a bottle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting gluten EVERY night. I use a little of the lotion in the morning on my neck, with no reaction, but at night, I use it on my arms and legs and face and get gluten gut pretty bad. After eight nights of having to have diphenhydramine injections for severe gluten, I googled “is Lubriderm gluten-free” and it led me to this forum. I am going to go back to olive oil as I have been gut sick sooooooo bad with a huge gut and pain eight days in a row now. Sick of feeling sick.

So eight days in a row of gluten on top of gluten on top of gluten, I just had to resort to the EpiPen. I wish I could post a picture because you wouldn’t believe how enormous my gut is! It makes my head look like a pinhead.Ahhhgggsahhhhh!!!! I have discovered that I have to read the ingredients when I use a product up that I’ve been able to use without getting a reaction, because they can change the ingredients and bam my toothpaste now has gluten!!! my doctor told me gluten free means it has 20 ppm which someone with a severe a celiac as I’ve got that thing there kills me. I try to find certified gluten-free in everything. I can’t eat any oats unless it’s Bob’s red mill certified gluten-free. Good luck everybody this autoimmune disease is wicked wicked

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
