What Products Have You Pitched -after Gluten Free?

[darlindeb25]

NoGluGirl--wow, and I thought mine was bad taking over 12 hours to dry ! My bosses wife has very curly hair and she uses regular conditioner on it too keep it manageable, she just rubs some in after shampooing. I do know that Garnier Fruitis does have a "leave in" conditioner and it is gluten free, I just prefer Pantene. Avon used to make a great "leave in" conditioner, but I do not know if they still have it. Here is a site to check out, you can always click on one, find the company email addy and ask if it's gluten-free: Open Original Shared Link . I do know that Pantene is the one conditioner that makes my hair manageable.

How can you tell if your shampoo/conditioner/body wash/body lotion has gluten in it? I have checked the ingredients on all and nothing says wheat or oatmeal or any other grain. It just looks like a long list of chemicals.

Oh my goodness while reading this I just realized that I ate spare ribs last night that were prepackaged and had BBQ sauce on them. I looked at the ingredients and didn't find anything that jumped out at me, but if most BBQ sauces have Gluten then I'm in trouble. The other thing I forgot is that I have been putting sugar in my coffee (I usually don't drink coffee, but that's another story lol) Well the sugar I used is in a container which my hubby dips his donuts in and there are little pieces of donuts in it. I've never cared before and it didn't even dawn on me that I was cross contaminating UG. It's a good think I only used the sugar once, but that may explain my down time last week :-(!!

The thing that has surprised me so far (if I read the label right) would be Slim Jim's!! I thought they were just dried meat like beef jerky but they must have lots of flavoring in them.

The best BBQ sauce that I have tried is "Sweet Baby Ray's"....it is soooo good.

Dear Deb,

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Yep, my hair takes a while. I also get into disputes with it! Sometimes it gets to my food before I do! It really is scary, it eats stuff! Detangler is something that is sort of hard to get that you know is gluten free. I heard VO5 makes one. I am going to check out all of my products on the site.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Angel42--it may be clanthompson.com that has an ingredient list to watch out for, I can't remember where I found the list. Very often on shampoo, lotions, etc, the ingredient will be listed as such: on VO5 it says, glycine soia (soybean), or wheat will be mentioned, as in Tressemme shampoo, it is listed on the ingredient. I also do not use anything with oatmeal listed on it, they all make me itch. clanthompson.com does have a list of gluten free items, it's not an extensive list, but it's a start.

I use a lot of Softsoap items, for hands and their bodywashes, most are gluten free. I use Pantene for my hair and I have found many lotions with no gluten in them. Most of the Bath & Body Works products I have looked at are gluten free, yet sometimes their scents set off my allergies. The hardest for me to figure out are medications, mostly because they are not regulated the same as foods. Many times you can't be sure what their starches are made of. Any time you are in question, then call the toll free number of the product and ask, if the answer seems questionable, then avoid their products.

NoGluGirl--you are very welcome!

Just wanted to add and check with y'all too ... I was having "D" every morning and finally have stopped that ...

I gave up my Kettle lightly salted baked potato chips and Back to Nature rice crackers ... Wah!

I don't want to have to try these again, so has anyone else had a problem with these ...

Thanks Marcia
