But if you are putting in on his skin, and then he is a little kid, so he probably puts his hands in his mouth at some point, and that is how you get gluten from cosmetics and stuff, i don't believe what this lady says and i think that it is wrong.

I would just like to point out I am most definately NOT Marjorie Gyurus even if she lists the exact same things and reasons and arguaments, its simply common sense.

On the other hand the blog owner is just a self appointed ignorant busybody.

She should probably (or maybe does) work for CUK.

One of the questions I have been asked is about which alcoholic drinks are gluten free. Wine, spirits, sherry and port are all suitable for Celiacs. Beer is quite a different matter.

Really... forget for the moment the possibility (yet to be disproven) possbility of gluten or gliadins ending up in the distillate I can name several sherries and ports which use caramel color for port and the manufactuerers do not even say are gluten-free. Same goes for several spirits such as Cognacs...

Some people just go through life thinking if they are going to be ill then they should encourage others to join them.

If the autheress wants to be sick that is her perogative, she can eat a pizza everyday for lunch for all I care and hopefully sooner or later she will be too ill to spout her BS on the web.

However making blanket statements based on nothing but hot air is irresponsible and selfish.

Everyone has the right to determine their own risks... if people wanna smoke I say let them... if people wanna do deep sea diving that is there decision.

When I ski I take a lot of risks in places which are not covered by rescue, I don't expect rescue... or other people to come to my aid except those I ski with. However it would be irresponsible to say hey I can ski any off piste and I spot a potential avalanche and outrun most so its safe for everyone.

I put just small drops around the wart (as I'd been told to) then covered it with a bandage. It was not exposed

He may have managed to get it in his mouth - but I think there is a difference between Celiac and gluten intolerance, and I think his body just can't tolerate it in any way

Regardless - it all leads to the same result, which is just to be careful - we can't know for sure - I do know that I'm not going to put it on him anymore

thanks

I didn't read the blog in its entirety - I was just skimming for info on the skin absorbtion issue

My 4 yr old doesnt drink alcohol, so that's not an issue for me ;-) I just wanted to put a post out there that, although I'm no doctor, nor do I have proof - I believe he absorbed the gluten in the Vitamin E oil I was putting on his wart this week

take care

Dr. Fine just addressed the question in a Q&A about someone who works with bread in his job. He said he thought it was a bad idea.

The skin is a permeable thing. That's why drug medicated patches work. With those of us having gluten reactions it tends to open up zonulin controlled barriers more (at least in the gut), and the skin has one of those too.

I suppose you can carry this to extremes but personally I at least make a semi-effort to avoid gluten in topical applications.

Thank you very much for this information. I hope my son's reaction will end soon.

thanks again
