Anti-aging Cream.

Dear Everyone,

I am wanting to use something around my eyes and mouth to prevent wrinkles. Is there anything out there that is affordable and gluten-free? Olay Regenerist seems good, but I do not know if it is safe to use. I have some wrinkles starting because of squinting. I am near-sighted.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

I use philosphy 'Hope in a Jar' and 'When Hope is Not Enough' I also use one of Burt's Bees facial cremes. I have called and checked both for gluten and for soy. You mention squinting because you are nearsighted, have you gotten your eyes checked to see if you need a new prescription? That would be the best preventative. :)

Dear ravenwoodglass,

Thank you for your help! I need something affordable. Actually, I got new glasses in late October.

Before that, I squinted a lot more. Due to my headaches, I cannot always where them. Migraines from these wisdom teeth have really been difficult to deal with. Hopefully, I will get some contacts later this year.

Also, they said to prevent aging to begin using such products in your 20s. ;)

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

P.S. Do you know if Clearasil products are safe for oily, acne prone skin?

Be careful with Philosophy. The When Hope is Not Enough contains soy protein and possibly gluten.

I went over the ingredients lists myself, ordered several of their products--spending a lot of money in the process. After using them for a while, I wasn't feeling well, and since the only new thing I was using were the Philosophy products I emailed them and they sent me a list of their products that contained gluten.

This was last spring, and we've moved and switched internet providers since then, so I no longer have the list or I'd copy and paste it here. Turns out, I was using a couple products that contained gluten--and had no idea from reading the labels! Of course, when I discontinued them, I began to feel better. I was literally slathering the Pigment of Your Imagination all over my face daily--nothing on the label would indicate gluten and yet it was on the gluten containing list. I was not happy.

Jin--I'm currently using moisturizing facial cream from Andrea Rose--her products are gluten and salicylate free.

For drugstore brands, I like Dove--they have a facial lotion that I have not tried yet but plan to, but I do like their Energy Glo Face Wash--it exfoliates gently and leaves my face very soft.

I use Peptides and More by Reviva. I buy it online.

I don't see any gluten or soy ingredients (Patty, it does have coconut though). It's all natural stuff, nothing bad.

Patti, Thanks for the heads up. Sometimes I wish I was a chemist.

Dear Patti,

Thank you so much for your help! :) That list will make it much easier to find the right one. Sometimes these beauty products are confusing. Labeling is not always clear. I have heard conflicting things about Neutragena, so I am not sure if I can use their products or not.

I remember when you got so ill last year. Cosmetics are easy to forget about, or to overlook. Ingredient lists are incredibly complicated at times. Take Vitamin E, which can be listed as tocopherols. When I first saw that, I had no idea what that meant!

Dear Ravenwoodglass,

It does seem you need a degree in chemistry to understand these labels. You can run across the same ingredient that has fifty different names! No one is going to know for sure what all of those things are.

Hair products can be frustrating, too. I have a Paul Mitchell safe list, but am concerned about tea tree oil. I do not know if it strips color or not.

Sincerely,

Jin

Peptides would be something You would want to look into. Excel Skin Care has great products in Pure B-5 and Renewal Complex.

For the lower buy go through their Amazon store with free shipping included.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
