I was diagnosed in 2004.. I am very allergic to wheat. I started following my diet very reguraly and noticed I was still having some side effects..I remembered when I was with a nurse she mentioned whatching my cosmetics and perfumes...She did mention Clinique specificlly. Unfortunatley for me all I use to use was clinique... Sad very sad.So I then proceeded to check my shampoo Biolage and realized it has wheat germ oil.. And so does my massage oils.. When I stopped using these products my symptoms went away.... Amazing right... Now what shampoos does everyone use.. I found some but they are expensive and hard to find.. I need a good shampoo... HELP

Hi :)

I use (and love) ShiKai Everyday Shampoo and Conditioner. I find them at either Whole Foods or Wegman's. Some of their products contain gluten, so you have to read the labels--the two I use are fine.

Good luck with finding products that you like.

I Use Neutrogena Clean shampoo and conditioner and Neutrogena body gel. Available pretty much anywhere they sell shampoo.

I used to use Alterna Caviar, but they added wheat!!!! <_< This time I'm trying Kenra. So far I like it ... it's available at salons.

i use Redken Fresh Curls. :) i used to love their All Soft, but it's got wheat in it. i had to stop using Bumble & Bumble because of the wheat in some products. but Redken works well, also Garnier Fructisse. and it smells yummy! i buy that at Wal-Mart; the Redken i get at my salon. glad that your symptoms went away!

I use Suave or Dove... Cheapest of the cheap... They are both gluten free. As always, check all ingredients first.

I use the shampoo and conditioner from www.gfsoap.com .

I'm really sensitive and will sometimes get gluten reactions to shampoos even if there are no gluten ingredients listed. A lot of Pantene is gluten-free, but my hair looks awful when I use it, although it works great for most people.

After experimenting with a lot of mainstream brands and either getting a reaction or not being happy with how my hair looks, I went back to using the ones from www.gfsoap.com. That's what works best for me.

I love Redken anything...minus the all soft of course...maybe I'm biased because that's what we sold when I worked in a salon but I love Redken

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      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.
