:o I thought I had read the label but I guess I didn't read it well enough cuz there it is on the 6th line up from the bottom: Triticum Vulgare (wheat) Germ Oil. :angry:

We won't discuss how many bottles I have bought on sale so I could save a bit of money. :blink: And of course I no longer have the receipts. :ph34r:

I hope the ladies at the homeless shelter like them!

Oh yeah - the lotion is St. Ives Swiss Formula Advanced Body Moisturizer Collagen Elastin.

I purchase all of my personal care products from Cleure. Their entire product line is Gluten-free, including hair care, skin care, cosmetics, toothpaste, and tons of other stuff that I love! Also, all of their products are free of sulfates, parabens, aluminum (awesome deodorant B) , I like the spray formula).. check them out online!

I like that it gets a good rating on Skin Deep but unfortunately money is a big issue and Cleure body lotion costs more than 100 times per ounce ( ~$2.75 compared to less than 20 cents) than what I can get at Walmart. And that's before figuring in shipping.

You apply the lotion with your hands, so now your hands (and for that matter the rest of you) are now contaminated with a thin coating of wheat which will transfer to anything you touch including lip gloss, dental floss, finger foods, etc.

It's just safest not to use products that contain wheat. ;)

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
