Hi,

I currently use Crest--I called them just last month and was told that all Crest tooth products are gluten-free.

A good more natural choice is Jason Powersmile.

I'm using Dove Shampoo and Conditioner--they will clearly list any gluten on the bottle.

Sodium laurel sulfate is irritating to some people but it has nothing to do with Celiac--there's no gluten issue with it.

I use Tom's of Maine. I love this company they list the source of all the ingredients and what they do. No weird chemical names or additives and also soy and dairy free. I use the cinnamint with Myrrh, tastes great and seems to help with my nightly plaque formation from dry mouth and sleeping with my mouth open.

Aquafresh says it is gluten free on their FAQ page. We also use Arm & Hammer Peroxi Care with no problems.

Good luck!

I agree with you - Tom's of Maine is great! I use the apricot that does not have fluoride in it - my dd does also, being fluoride free helps her thyroid. I recently called the company when that big toothpaste scare was out a couple of months ago, and they were very nice to converse with and helpful. I don't think I will ever switch toothpaste again.

Just to mention when I talked with the manuf. of colgate company , they told me they can not guar. that the toothpaste were gluten-free. They issued a check to me for the 2 tubes I had just purchased becasue of the no guar.

When was this? I talked to them about 3 months ago and they said all their toothpastes are gluten free. Conflicting information is SO frustrating. <_<

I think was back in July? I pressured her a bit to make sure there was NO gluten in the toothpaste, and she told me the usual story...we don't intentionally put gluten in the product, but they could get their ingredients sourced from somewhere that may have gluten. I switched immediately, and they even sent me a check for the 2 tubes I had just recently bought.

That is when I switched to Tom's Of Maine

Check this out before you give your child flouride. It can lead to Flourosis.

I use Alba hair and skin care products. Have had no problems with them. I have curly hair also, and their line of shampoo and conditioner has worked well for me. I use Dr. Bronner's leave in conditioner. The one in the purple pump bottle, not sure what it's called, I'm not at home right now. I buy from VitaCost.com, because they have what I need and their prices are low.

I've been using Desert Essence toothpaste for several years. I use the fennel flavor, because mint in dental care products irritates my mouth. I can eat and drink all the mint I want, just can't use the dental products.

This toothpaste contains tea tree oil. Since I've been using it, my dental hygienist complains that she doesn't have enough to do when I come in for a cleaning. :D

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
