Welcome! These two are the concern for me: Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E). Vitamin E is often sourced from our favorite plant, wheat. The lipstick alternatives I've found are from Target: Pixi Lip Blush. It is a lip stain, so lasts all day. Down side is the price ($18), and it seems to be somewhat drying. Or that could my tendency to not drink enough water!! It does last forever, though, so that's good on the price side. Works well with chapstick on top. Good luck with the hunt.

What brand name of lipstick is this?

The Canadian Celiac Association considers all forms of tocopherol to be gluten-free.

I am such a dummy. I had no idea Tocopherol could come from wheat. :unsure: My gluten-free DD has had a weird rash and just recently started wearing make-up. Maybe it's time to re-check those labels and make sure she's not getting anything she shouldn't. EEEEGAAADS.

Pixi is the brand - it's one of those special Target lines of makeup.

Check out the lip shimmers by Burt's bees, in the darker colors. They apply just like lipstick. My only complaint is that they don't last very long - I have to reapply every two hours. But the color is deep and it feels very yummy with its peppermint finish.

I am HIGHLY sensitive to gluten, have been gluten free for 5 years and worn Le Rouge Absolu by Lancome every day. Your ingredients look okay to me.

I called Neutrogena with the lipstick in my hand from the store. They checked the particular color/kind that I had and it happened to be gluten free. They do not carry a list of gluten free cosmetics, but said that I could call them with a certian item and they would look it up for me. Good luck!

      Virus, celiac disease or both?

      By Shining My Light · Posted

      @trents I’m pretty sure what I’m left with when separating celiac to other causes is my 10% being a virus. The one I had about 3 weeks before taking this TTG test. Everything I’ve read says type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis and some viruses are what could cause the elevation. The other blood tests I had I can compare things against.  I’m going to give your article a thorough read. My support in my circle is very small at the moment.  @knitty kitty I think before EGD I would like to do the DNA test. I’m going to start keeping a better journal also.  I’ve read a crazy amount of these “articles” - these two I’ve not seen. Some articles spell celiac differently. Thank you for sharing! I’m gonna dive into those.   I started seeing the functional medicine doctors from fluctuations in my hormones and major anxiety. Recently I realize it’s mostly health anxiety also so this is more challenging to depict real from imaginary thus all the research and the back and forth. I know anxiety to be a common symptom in perimenopause. I’ve fought it my whole life however. Likely due to lots of different trauma but seeing her was my last ditch effort to try something to avoid SSRIs, HRT, etc. She told me not to blame everything on my hormones when there could be an underlying problem, so she ran some tests to see if anything stood out. The TGG tests stood out.  I do find it very interesting now that I think about it that I don’t desire bread, pasta and pizza. Sometimes yes, but mostly no. I guess I didn’t give that much thought. Also didn’t realize that those foods do contain more gluten than the tortillas and cake/baked goods. About 3 months ago I started ordering meal kits to make dinner easier. I went back over the menus that I picked. I have probably had bread and pasta a hand full of times over the last couple months prior to having that blood test. We used to get pizza every Friday and stopped doing that also. I’m all fairness about 2 months leading up to these blood tests I had less gluten containing foods than I thought.    I’ve been praying for wisdom. Thankful to find some counsel from people who I believe have dove harder into this than most doctors have. Thanks for all the advice. It’s appreciated more than you know. 💕

      @knitty kitty My whole family has migraines and I started getting them at age 19, so I'm not sure mine are related to gluten, although I do feel like obviously the more inflamed my whole system is, the more likely I am to suffer from more of these things.

      @Alibu, Just wanted to add... Migraines can be caused by thiamine insufficiency.  I used to have them, regularly, but haven't since supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Magnesium Threonate.  These forms get into the brain easily and really improve migraines.  I do still get Ophthalmic migraines which are triggered by computer screens.  It's permanent damage from nutritional deficiencies.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace test is a more accurate test for sufficient thiamine. Keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty Thank you for those, I will definitely bring them up!  I did send a message to my doctor basically asking what they think so I'll go from there.  He may very well just decide that this was enough to diagnose celiac, but I have no clue what his thoughts are right now.  I also asked for a second opinion on the pathology.

      @HilaryM, Are you eating a diet high in carbohydrates?  You might find a Paleo diet easier on your digestive system.  A Paleo diet can promote changes in  intestinal flora, effectively starving out SIBO bacteria.   Be wary of gluten free processed foods.  Many are not enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing like gluten containing foods are.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals while healing.  Vitamins are organic compounds that the body cannot make and so must get from the diet.   Supplementing ensures our bodies get a fair chance to absorb the essential nutrients it needs.
