Bad Luck With Lotion

My favorite lotion was Curel but once I learned there might be gluten in it I stopped using it. I've tried Vaseline and seem to not get along with that either. I picked up a Dove cream oil, but I'm not sure that it's gonna help my hands. My hands are in water all day washing dogs/cats, my hands get so dried out that my fingers start to split near my nails. I tested a Giovanni lotion and don't think i had a problem but is this a good brand? I need something uncented or not to smelly. Any ideas?

I really like Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream. It's comes in scented or non. Great for dry hands!

You might try finding pure shea butter. Good stuff, and perfectly safe/good for the pets too!

I wash my hands alot. Have had good luck with shea butter too. When hands are cracked and in bad shape, I put nitrile (latex free) gloves over lubed up hands overnight. Have also used socks. :P

I have used this one also with good results. I have also used a NOW product that is just coconut oil and shea butter and that worked well also.

I like Udderly Smooth... it is the only one that has not bothered me. I can't find it in stores around here, but it is very reasonably priced online. Most lotions give me a headache or itchy rash. I have so many barely used lotions/cosmetics/soaps in my bathroom closet because of this - I hope my local women's shelter takes partially used products!

Yes Yes, Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream, unscented. Love the stuff. Be careful, a little goes a long way. I keep it on my bedside table for use every night.

Yep, this one gets my vote, too. We spent almost a month at the hospital with my daughter. The nurses had to wash their hands every time they entered her room (actually, any patient's room). I asked what they were using and that's where I first got turned onto it. Love it.

Also just a thought, check and make sure if the shampoos that your washing the animals in is safe for your skin. Hopefully there isn't any cross contamination from that to your clothes and to other things, just in case that may be giving you a reaction. Sounds far fetched but may be something to look into.

Thanks everyone. I picked up the Neutogena hand cream today and will try it tonite. I think it's the stuff i used to use a few years ago before I found the curel lotion. And I have been checking into the dog shampoos and treatments with my boss and envirogroom and possibly espree brands are good.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Matthias · Posted

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
