Finally Canada Gets New Labeling Laws

I am excited about this! I just read a report that it has become mandatory for personal care products and cosmetics here in Canada to list the ingredients. It's about time! They have until 2007 to comply, but have to provide lists of ingredients in the meantime.

Here is the link to the story. Open Original Shared Link

Finally!

After I found out about my "new" allergies and sensitivities, I've found it very frustrating to not have info on the products I already own...and frustrating to not see a list of ingredients when I'm at the store. This will help a lot.

Oh that's so awesome!! I'm also one of those was very sensative skin and insane sensativity to gluten so it'd be nice to know which soaps, lotions, shampoos etc we can use without having to spend a zillion dollars or specialist shampoos/hand lotions/etc!! Yay for Canadians, eh? :lol:

I am so thrilled about this as it is a step to making our lives easier.

Now for more good news the After Eight Chocolates including the new Baily's Irish Creams are wheat/gluten-free and Ganongs Chocolates in Canada are also that way. I talked to the head of QC in Canada, whose mother is Celiac and he says there is absolutely no wheat, rye, oats, barley, malt or gluten in anything and after every flavor the machines are heavy duty sprayed a minimum of seven times. They take the allergies very serious and especially him because of his mother's Celiac problems.

      Welcome to the forum, @Tlbaked13! Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease? It is well-known that celiac disease can result in peripheral neuropathy but so can diabetes.

      Lactic acid bacteria start to develop as soon as flour and water are mixed, so I assumed that in a yeast dough with long proofing time there could be some effect of fermentation and gluten break down.

      I am COMPLETELY new to this celiac disease however I have had the same feelings and then some with my feet for years now and been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy myself but they blamed and attempted to treat due from my type 1 diabetes and none of the treatment has helped at all so far so possible from celiac disease? Just sharing MY thoughts on this I've had zero confirmation

      I've not heard of the DNA test I will definitely look into that. And I did not know that the neuropathy was symptoms of vitamin deficiency. I have been trying to get on a good vitamin regimen. Thank you!

      My GI Doctor took blood work and said my Iron levels were actually high. But they took my blood a couple weeks after my infusion so I'm thinking that's why they were showing so high, but they knew I had the infusions. The infusions did help greatly but I am also on an Iron pill that I can instantly notice if I have not taken it for a few days.  Yes, I have read up on that! Thank you so much! I sure that will be fun! Hahaha
