I have been using Dove shampoo and I know it is gluten-free but, it makes my hair feel weird And I have a bad breakout EVERYTIME! Is there a shampoo and conditioner out there that is gluten-free leaves your hair feeling soft And would have a mild reaction to skin? I am going shopping today and am completely out.

I like the Neutrogena clean shampoo and conditioner... My kids use the Suave for kids 2 in 1...

I use Trader Joe's Castile soap (liquid). My hair is short though, and I'm a guy.

I hope Aussie products are ok? Because that's what I bought. I didn't say wheat...anyone else use it?

If you have sensitive skin, you might want to use Burt's Bees products (something like 98% "natural" ingredients), Baby Shampoo, or a shampoo that is designed for an oily scalp/hair but not irritating. Some products create too much bulidup for those who have an oily or breakout prone scalp. If you think you are having an allergic response to something in the Dove shampoo, you could try looking for hypoallergenic shampoos. The Body Shop may also have somthing that might help, like their Tea Tree Oil shampoo.

I've been using Burt's Bees Grapefruit "Shine" shampoo, and I LOVE it! :)

P.S. I just checked for you, and my Burt's Bees is gluten-free! It is a great shampoo! You might also want to make sure you are not using any conditioner near your scalp...this can cause major breakouts for many.

I emailed Aussie to see if they are gluten-free let you know. In the mean time thanks for telling me about Burts Bees. I don't know where to find it where I live.

I just got a reply from Aussie thought I would share

Thank you for contacting Aussie.

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley. Although it is typically

not added directly to our products, it may be present in fragrances. Due to the

difficulty of tracing the source ingredients for the variety of fragrances used

in manufacturing our products, we can not provide specific levels of gluten

content for any of our fragrance blends.

Be aware that even products labeled "unscented" will still contain a masking

scent, therefore they may potentially contain gluten.

We hope we've been helpful. If we can assist you in the future, please let us

know.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
