Lay's Kettle Chips (mesquite Bbq) And St. Ives Apricot Scrub

Hi, I'm new to the gluten-free diet. I'm trying to heal up a horrible rash that looks and acts like DH, but which has given me negative biopsies. I've been gluten-free for a little more than two weeks. The rash began to heal beautifully after I started the diet, but in the past few days, I have broken out all over my body. Again. Sigh. I'm miserable. I'm trying to see what I ate/used that caused the breakout. I've been trying to stick with whole, unprocessed foods and with personal care items that are strictly gluten-free. The only two new things I've used are Lay's Kettle Chips (mesquite BBQ flavor) and some St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub (Invigorating) that I used only on my face. The Kettle Chips are supposed to be gluten-free, but I see from a search of this forum that others have reacted to them. The Facial Scrub's ingredients are below: Did I miss something?

Water, Walnut Shell Powder, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Corn Meal, Cetyl Alcohol, Linoleamide DEA, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sambucus Nigra Extract (elder flower), Glyceryl Stearate, Lanolin Oil, Emulsifying Wax NF, Apricot Kernel Oil, Matricaria Extract, Primrose Extract, Sunflower Extract, Ceteareth-20, PEG-100 Stearate, Triethanolamine, Carbomer, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Phenoxyethanol, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Fragrance, Titanium Dioxide

I see an obvious corn ingredient, and I have positive blood allergy tests (IgE) to corn, but have never had a reaction to corn in any way, shape or form. I'm baffled. Anyone see something I don't? Thanks a bunch!

I use the Apricot scrub daily with no issues. I have not tried the kettle chips. Ichecked the website and it claims to be gluten-free, but I have reacted to Cheetos, too. I think maybe it's the MSG?

Many of us avoid the flavored Lay's products because of the high risk of CC. For me eating Lay's is like playing roulette, one time I will be fine another I will be sick as a dog so I have learned to avoid them. The facial scrub looks safe and I used to use it with no issues.

Last summer I reacted to the gluten free Kettle chips...it was a definite reaction since it was the only manufactured product I had. I think it was even the flavor you mentioned.

I'd like to know how that can happen - something labelled gluten-free gets us. :(

Kettle chips have always made me sick, and others as well. Don't eat them. Consider that you may also have allergies to soy or corn, or even both.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
