Would it be bad to use a body wash by Aveeno that has oat flour in it?

It depends on how sensitive you are. In our house we eliminated any soaps, shampoos etc. that could have gluten in them. My son's skin breaks out in a rash when he comes in contact with gluten. I just feel safer knowing the bath is gluten free too!

Good Luck!

It might be safe... as long as you don't wash your face and get it in your mouth, or as long as you don't get it on your hands and touch food afterwards (you might want to wash your hands good after using it). Personally, I'd not feel safe using any soaps/shampoos that contain gluten.

I think the possibilities of cross-contamination with such a product would be too great to risk it. I stay clear of all toiletries containing gluten in any form.

Adam-

Just thought I'd add that we use Ivory soap, Burts Bees Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo & Conditioner, I think Suave products are safe (double check that to be sure) and I read here once that Softsoap body washes are safe, (confirm that one too!) We use Softsoap hand soap in our bathroom. Good Luck!

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
