I contacted Mac and they said that though all of my products ARE free of gluten....The items ARE made in the same factory as the items with Gluten. They said though they clean their machines and do their best to NOT cross contaminate they can NOT guarantee that the items are 100% gluten free.

Does anyone know if the Loreal Paris Elvive Full Restore 5 Replenishing Shampoo and Conditioners are alright for someone with severe Coeliacs Disease? It's says something about a wheat protein...I have symptoms similar to the four hour flu ( you know what I mean :/ ) so I'm not sure if they're safe or not.

If it has wheat protein then it is not gluten free. Not all of us avoid gluten in topicals but many of us do. I wouldn't use this product.

Thanks. I've been gluten free since I was two but never really thought about gluten in cosmetics

I just called Loreal and Origins. Origins silk screen refining face powder contains no gluten. Loreal color riche lipstick and infallible lipsticks both are gluten free, and the voluminous mascara in carbon black and regular w curved brush are both gluten free

I suggest Dr. Bronner's (drbronner.com). Soap, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, shave gel, lotion, lip and body balm, even their snack bars are gluten free. They don't carry a make-up line though.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
