I don't know the answer to your question but I'm sure someone else will. I do however want to know which products you were asking about. I LOVE Dr. Hauschka products but haven't yet tried to contact them to find out which ones are gluten free. Do you mind sharing whatever information you have found so far?

I was using Dr. H - but when I called and found out the yellow colored face moisturizer (I foget the name) had wheat germ oil, I quit. They said it was gluten-free, but I was not into taking chances.

I switched to My Chelle, which I like. (I like Dr. H. better though, to be honest).

As a sidenote...I've noticed I need face lotion less than I used to. Maybe a positive side effect of Celiac.

hi

i just emailed them as well to inquire about all thier products and i got this response today:

Dear Jessica,

Thank you for your recent inquiry. Gluten, a naturally-occurring

protein in wheat and other grains, is found in hydrolyzed wheat protein

used in Dr.Hauschka Body Washes. Cleansing Milk and Herbal Hair

Conditioner contain fermented grain extract, which may also contain

gluten. These products are not suitable for people with allergies to

wheat. Those with celiac disease can safely use these products if they

avoid getting the product in the mouth. Wheat germ oil and alcohol are

wheat-derived ingredients that do not contain gluten. We have verified

to the best of our ability that no other gluten or wheat substances are

used during the manufacture of Dr.Hauschka Skin Care or its ingredients.

Please feel free to contact the Customer Service Department at the

number below with any further questions.

Kindly,

Customer Service Department

Dr.Hauschka Skin Care, Inc.

Thank you for the update. I guess it's up to the consumer to decide if wheat germ oil contains gluten or not! I haven't looked into it yet so I have no comment.

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain.  That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral.  It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!
    • Scott Adams
      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.
