Play Dough - gluten-free, Have You Bought It?

The first time, I thought it could not have been from the play dough. But the second time, months later, I know she was glutened from it. It must be from not washing her hands and putting her hands in her mouth right? I don't think she's sensitive to it through her skin, but I guess I don't know since she's not handling wheat or anything.

I saw the gluten free dough from discount school supply. Has anyone bought that? Is it worth the cost? Have you bought anything else you like or made any that you like?

Thanks!

Someone just published a gluten free play dough recipe on Recipezaar.com. I've never tried it myself but it's the same recipe I've seen before and others have said it works well.

Our pre-k teacher tried the gluten-free playdough and I also made my own for her on occasion. The homemade one was better...and definitely safer. I've also tried the Crayola modeling clay which is claimed gluten-free. Ours was not. I called Crayola and they told me that it is made on shared equipment so it may have cross-contamination issues despite their efforts to clean equipment.

I'd recommend making your own. If your child is really sensitive, it's the only way to be truly safe. And it really doesn't take that long to make.

Good Morning

I bought gluten-free Play Dough from this website and it is AWESOME!!

I am in Canada and had it shipped to a friend in the states and then had it shipped up here. It was worth it. My 3 1/2 year old lil girl loves it. It is just like regular play dough. She got it for Christmas and it never dries out, fun and SAFE!!

I make gluten-free playdough for my 5 year old son's class. It's very easy ... I double the batch and only make it every 2 months.

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
