It's Turning Warm Already-pedicure Time!

I'm new and getting more sensitive to gluten by the minute. I need some help when it comes to picking out a gluten-free sunscreen, deodorant, and nail polish. I have tried to find the Burt's Bee's deodorant that was recommended but, no luck. Any others?

Do I have to have a specific gluten-free nail polish? I live in the south and people are starting to wear sandals and I need a pedicure-bad!

Thanks for all of your help in the past-

Well there are lots of different opinions on this but I don't go too crazy with products. Yes I use gluten free products on my face and my hair (and my body lotion) but I don't give much thought to my antiperspirant and virtually none to my nail polish.

Maybe I should with the nail polish... I'm very careful in this era of colds, flu, mersa, to keep my hands off my face but I'm sure it happens occasionally. I don't think I've ever had a problem, I use Opi products. I use Dove antiperspirant.

I've been gluten free for years now and I've had very few slip ups.

Thanks, those are the two products I currently use! Any advise about sunscreen? I'll already got a sunburn on Sunday. It was sunny but, it usually is here in NC-this must have been extra strong!

I also have been using Burt's Bee's Radiance face creme in the a.m. but, it concerns me because it does not contain sunscreen. I have always used a product with sunscreen for daily use.

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.
