I would like to go find some gluten free products for the following:

Shampoo

Soap

Toothpaste

Washing up Liquid

Im sure there are other things i need to focus on aswell, if there is please add them to the list.

Ideally UK products will be better for me

I replied and lost it somehow, so here we go again!

Tom's of Maine toothpaste...there are others gluten free, but I appreciate their upfrontness about gluten on their website, and feel safe using their toothpaste.

Johnson's Baby Shampoo...I found it listed as safe on some celiac list somewhere on the web. (sorry, I can't remember where)\

I bought cases and cases of some olive-oil based bar soap I found at Costco, JUST because the ingredients seemed basic enough and easy enough to feel safe with, so I've probably got a lifetime supply stashed.

I'm still searching for gluten free lotions (affordable ones!!!)...I would like a hand lotion and facial wrinkle preventive lotion/cream, but I go without for now, because I can't find one guaranteed to be gluten free. I love feeling good and won't take any chances on jeopardizing my health, so until I get some better information, I go without those products.

Suave and Dove will not hide gluten in their products. I use Suave body lotions (I love the new Rose one and the Lavender) and Dove shampoos and conditioners.

I have also used the Giovanni Hair Products and those were quite good but I haven't bought in a while so recheck before using.

The Garneir Nutritioneste product line of skin stuff is also for the most part gluten-free. I haven't checked everthing but I use the facial wash and the facial wash with the scrubby beads and also the moisterizer without SPF. A nice product line.

I live in Colorado (very dry climate). I use Vaseline lotions - the aloe (green bottle) lotion in the summer and the shea butter (I think) brown bottle in the winter. They also will not hide gluten - they are made by uniliver I believe.

Of course I'm not sure if this all applies to the UK, sorry! :huh:

Of the three, shampoo is the most likely to have gluten. The only toothpaste I've ever heard having gluten is Sensodyne, and I'm not sure that's really true. I don't know of any soaps with gluten.

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?
    • trents
      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?
    • The Logician
      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS.  I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input and will let you know if I have a problem with wheat again. I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.

      Can the rest of your household eat the food with gluten instead of getting rid of it? Can you create one shelf, or partial shelf, for your new food in the pantry, in the fridge and in the cabinets as a start? My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods go on the upper shelves so crumbs with gluten can’t fall onto them. Good luck!
