I believe all of Banana Boat's sunscreens are gluten free. That was what I used last year, but you might want to recheck this year since formulas change.

Excuse my ignorance but why does it matter if something topical is gluten free since it is not entering into the digestive tract? Thanks for the info!

It's applied to your face and is on your hands, so it may inadvertently get into your mouth....especially with children.

My daughter is 2 1/2 and puts her hands in her mouth constantly.

I use Banana Boat Sport. I think Burt's Bees and California Baby are also gluten-free. For bugs I use Avon Skin So Soft Regular Oil or Jungle Juice from REI but Jungle Juice is like 95% deet so might not be an option for kids. Skin So Soft also makes a sunscreen/bug repellant but I don't know it's status.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      You should be fine. You may start feeling better within a few days. Someone who is very low in thiamine may notice improvement within hours. Did you get the NeuroMag or another magnesium supplement?

      Yes Bobs redmill cgf oatmeal I started when I became gluten-free. So taking all 3 with breakfast should work? Will I notice any reactions getting used to these or should I be fine. Thanks

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Hello, @pilber309, welcome to the forum! Are you currently consuming dairy? You mentioned something about lots of yogurt and cheese, but did you cut it out or are you eating lots of it? Could you clarify please? Some people with Celiac react to casein, the protein in dairy the same as to gluten with antibodies and villi damage.

      You may want to skip the oatmeal. I believe you're trialing a gluten free diet while waiting for an appointment with your doctor in the new year and doing a gluten challenge then. Some people with Celiac disease react to the protein in oats called avenin the same as to gluten. Cross contamination between oats and gluten containing grains is possible. ...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.

Yes, it will be fine to take them all together.  I take mine all together, B Complex, Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamine with breakfast. If you're really anxious about it, just take the B Complex and Benfotiamine at breakfast and the Thiamax at lunch.  You won't have to take a second B Complex with the Thiamax.
