OKAY! So now that I have made the connection between food and body issues/behaviour, now the little lightbulb is going off and I am realzing that all those cleaners/moisterizers/ have chemicals that are soaking in to my body!!!!Anyway..I've searched the boards and found several choices but still wondering what is the favorite out there?

I'm looking at the mineral stuff, bare and everyday as well as Mychelle and afterglow but I'm not sure how they compare price wise and size, customer service wise, and how well the skin care actually works (I've been using clinique/oil of olay for years and I won't even tell how dangerous they were ranked by skni deep)

Thanks

Stacie

I love MyChelle Honeydew Cleanser--I use it every day.

I used to use Bare Escentuals, but it started to make my face itch so I am using Everyday Minerals and like them very much. I use their foundation, blush, lip gloss and concealer.

Another company I really like is Andrea Rose--I use their lip gloss, mascara, and body/hand lotion. I plan on ordering the sunscreen next. I've spoken with Andrea, and she works very closely with the chemist to insure that the products are gluten-free.

Yeah, come join the thread! It's great fun, and as you can see, we are quite fond of the make-up (so much so that we can't seem to shut-up about it. :lol:)

For skin care, I like Aubrey Organics. Mychelle is good too (good, high quality stuff), but I seem to be sensitive to it for some reason (it makes my face bright red). They do have a good sample kit though if you want to check it out.

I see you've already joined us on the Everyday Minerals thread :D

I have been using the Earth Science skin care line for several years now and I really like the products and how my skin feels. Everything I use is gluten-free and I looked it up over at Skin Deep and the numbers ranged from 2-7 (not particularly happy about the 7 :( , so i will be looking for a new moisturizer)

For make-up I use EM (concealer, foundation, blush, and eye shadows), Ecco Bella mascara (rates a 2 at Skin Deep :)), and Cowgirl lip balm (although they recently went out of business)

I like to use natural things also, I think it's good to get the toxic load down not only in food but with personal care products and cleaning supplies :)

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By Mmoc · Posted

      Hi there any advice welcomed. I have had 4 years of symptoms ranging from immune related anaphylactic symptom sudden onset food allergy to peppers/paprika/chilli/capsicum family derivatives. all these allergies fizzled out and following a food challenge test in hospital I reintroduced them a few months ago. Since then my digestive system is a mess. i have since noticed that 4 years ago when testing for iga allergies my iga level was .62 and my ttg was less than .1 (due to symptoms I was probably eating very plainly at that time). should I insist on being retested for celiac? I’ve since read two indicators for celiac include: sensitive to spicy foods when in flare up tooth enamel weakness and symmetrical discolouration patches on teeth which I have had since childhood on my two front teeth     thanks

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.
