Hey,

I'd Just thought i'd pass on some useful info i received today from Living Nature:

Hello Thank you for contacting us with your query regarding Gluten in our products. We can assure you that our products are Gluten free, we have Wheat straw glycoside as a part of our ingredients. This is extracted after the seed heads have been removed from the the wheat stalks. It is extremely nourishing and protecting on the skin, which absorbs very well offering outstanding qualities of smoothness. Another important fact is that it contains no gluten. The company that produce it have all their own crops which is guaranteed GE free. Best wishes

I know people that use this range and highly recommend it, i think i'll throw my old products away and start using these. ;)

Hey guys, just had another reply from skinfood, i'm using the SPF 15 face moisturiser at the moment and had no problems.

 

Cheers

 

 

Hi Julie,

We do not use any wheat products in Skinfood, so to the best of my knowledge they are gluten free.

 

Kindest regards,

Stephanie

Dear Julie,

Thank you for your enquiry. All Red Seal's toothpastes and teas are gluten free. Most of the supplement range is also gluten free unless labelled otherwise.

Yours in Health

Hi Julie,

 

Thank you for your email. Please find the following details from our manufacturers in Germany.

 

The following Dr.Hauschka Skin Care preparations contain gluten containing substances:

 

 

Cleansing Milk

Body Wash Lemon

 

 

Body Wash Rose

 

Body Wash Blackthorn

 

Shampoo Apricot & Seabuckthorn

 

Shampoo Nasturtium & Lemon

 

Shampoo Macadamia & Orange

 

Conditioner Jojoba Marshmallow

 

 

To be on the safe side, we would like to mention these Dr.Hauschka products which contain purified wheat germ oil. These products can be named as gluten free, especially due to the very little concentrations of purified wheat germ oil which is contained in the products.

Cleansing Cream

Lip Balm

 

Neem Hair Oil

 

Rejuvenating Mask

According to experiences and scientific researches it is safe to say that gluten is only then harmfull if it is taken internally.

 

Please let me know if you have any further questions and I will be happy to help.

I have been forwarded your request in regards to Gluten (mixture of proteins from wheat) in Dermalogica products. It will be much simpler for me to list the retail products that do contain any wheat derivatives than those that do not.

Retail Products that contain Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein include:

Julie-uk-nz Apprentice

REVLON AUSTRALIA PTY LIMITED

Dear Julie

Thank you for your email. The only products in the Revlon range that have Gluten derivatives are MoistureStay Lipcolor and Age Defying Makeup.

How this is helpful.

      Help!  My 5 year old daughter just stopped eating dairy and gluten due to her EoE and Celiac.  Her favorite candy in the world is tootsie rolls.  I did some research, and it sounds like these are the only options for finding something similar, but I can't find them anywhere to actually purchase.  Have they been discontinued??  Does anyone have another recommendation for a gluten-free/DF tootsie roll option?
    • catnapt
      I wonder how long it usually takes and if it is dose dependent as well... or if some ppl have a more pronounced reaction to gluten than others   thanks again for all the great info

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.

      Welcome to the forum, @suek54, I have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  I found taking Niacin B3 very helpful in clearing my skin from blisters as well as improving the itchies-without-rash (peripheral neuropathy).  Niacin has been used since the 1950's to improve dermatitis herpetiformis.   I try to balance my iodine intake (which will cause flairs) with Selenium which improves thyroid function.   Interesting Reading: Dermatitis herpetiformis effectively treated with heparin, tetracycline and nicotinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10844495/   Experience with selenium used to recover adrenocortical function in patients taking glucocorticosteroids long https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24437222/   Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/   Steroid-Resistant Rash With Neuropsychiatric Deterioration and Weight Loss: A Modern-Day Case of Pellagra https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12532421/#:~:text=Figure 2.,(right panel) upper limbs.&text=The distribution of the rash,patient's substantial response to treatment.   Nicotinic acid therapy of dermatitis herpetiformis (1950) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15412276/

      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.
