Is Proactiv Solution Skin Care Gluten Free?

I use the cleanser, toner, mask and am thinking about the green tea lotion. Does anyone else use these products and know if they are safe? I pulled the product ingredient listings and none of them appear to be gluten containing, but I am not a chemist and am just not sure.,....

I use the Proactiv system, and their products are gluten-free according to their handout that comes with it when you buy the system. But, I only use the three products that come in the pack (and the mask that came with it, too), so I'm not sure about the other products, but I would think they would be gluten-free, too. You could always call them about the other products, if you're unsure, but I would bet they are gluten-free, too, but I don't want to say something that's incorrect.

Does anyone know if Proactiv is still gluten free? I have been using them for years. But I am now starting to be careful with cosmetics and I have to go buy a cleanser tonic lotion package. On their website this is what they say:

Are the products Gluten-free?

In accordance with the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA), Gluten is listed as Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Gluten. This ingredient is not found in any Proactiv

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Alibu, Just wanted to add... Migraines can be caused by thiamine insufficiency.  I used to have them, regularly, but haven't since supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Magnesium Threonate.  These forms get into the brain easily and really improve migraines.  I do still get Ophthalmic migraines which are triggered by computer screens.  It's permanent damage from nutritional deficiencies.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace test is a more accurate test for sufficient thiamine. Keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty Thank you for those, I will definitely bring them up!  I did send a message to my doctor basically asking what they think so I'll go from there.  He may very well just decide that this was enough to diagnose celiac, but I have no clue what his thoughts are right now.  I also asked for a second opinion on the pathology.

      New onset constant gas

      @HilaryM, Are you eating a diet high in carbohydrates?  You might find a Paleo diet easier on your digestive system.  A Paleo diet can promote changes in  intestinal flora, effectively starving out SIBO bacteria.   Be wary of gluten free processed foods.  Many are not enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing like gluten containing foods are.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals while healing.  Vitamins are organic compounds that the body cannot make and so must get from the diet.   Supplementing ensures our bodies get a fair chance to absorb the essential nutrients it needs.

      @MelissaClinPsyD, I hope you investigate whether your participants take nutritional supplements.  The group of eight B vitamins, Vitamin D and magnesium have a big impact on mental health, especially depression.  I know correcting nutritional deficiencies were most important in my physical and mental health recovery!   There's more information and my mental health struggles in my blog.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      @Jmartes71, Please do get checked for nutritional deficiencies.  A good B Complex, Vitamin D, Benfotiamine (a form of Thiamine Vitamin B1 that promotes intestinal healing), Vitamin D and magnesium are a good way to start. Correcting nutritional deficiencies with Thiamine supplements (like Benfotiamine), B Complex, and Vitamin D were my miracles. How are you doing?  Sending prayers.
