I FIGURED I WOULD GIVE A UPDATE ON CREST PRODUCTS SINCE I JUST EMAILED THEM YESTERDAY.

ALL CREST PRODUCTS ARE GLUTEN FREE, HERE IS THERE RESPONSE

I'd be more than happy to share this information regarding our Crest

Toothpaste and Whitestrips. I'd like to assure you there is no Gluten in

Crest Whitestrips nor any of our current versions of Crest Toothpaste.

I know. Isn't it great? :lol: I'm not sure if I've ever said this before, but when I came here, my initial intention was to come, find out about celiac, then run, lol. For about four months I just read, then I would see an answer and would go, "I know that," and I would respond...I figured, why not give the person a quick answer. That developed and now I'm addicted. Then I wanted even more, lol, so I now post here religiously, regularly read Delphi, get the St. Johns Listserv, and belong to 4 Yahoo celiac groups. That gives me...7 groups. Wow...I'm pathetic. It does feel good to contribute :)

That's what I did for a while at first too. I just got on here for information but then I realized the information I knew could help other people on here so I figured I would post more and then I got addicted. :lol: I belong to about 4 groups I think but I only really participate here, only sometimes on the other ones...thats all I have time for otherwise I would do more :lol:

Docklearfan-thanks for the post of this info. I knew the Crest toothpastes were but I was not sure about their whitening products

I really have a great respect for alot of the people on this board. I know celiac3270 sent me his 2005 list of gluten foods and Kaiti has been soooooo nice with virtually every post I posted.

I know how devestating this disease can be!! and for people to donate their time to helping others in this forum is AWESOME!

(Personally, I have been wanting to ask for some help about something but I'm lacking the courage, maybe soon I will.)

thanks to everyone!

Believe, me, I think I've seen everything--I've seen posts discussing everything from graphic descriptions of bowel movements (everywhere) to gluten in the stickers on fruit (here) to gluten-free condoms (Delphi).... anything you can think of has probably been asked before :lol:

Like celiac3270 said, we have seen tons of questions and none of them are silly if your health is at risk. I've asked tons of questions on here and there is almost always someone that can help. The people on this board are very helpful, I am sure you will recieve an anwser to your question.

celiac3270,

HA! that is a new one for me! Well, good for him/her...Safety first! ;) I would hate for the poor "joe" to get celiac-diarreah after perfectly good intercourse! :blink:

In all seriousness though, I'm sure that the person who got up the nerve to ask about that issue was not alone in wondering about that though..NO QUESTION is DUMB...we are all learning from each other! B)

DOCKLEARFAN,

When you get ready, ask your question! Kaiti, celiac3270, Richard, Carrie, Jen, and others will no doubt offer you helpful, useful information. B) I will support you, but I'm still learning myself...so I'm afraid that I'm not as full of accurate/useful information as the others.

Happy 4th all. -Julie :)

Yup...a few months ago. It was mostly about some powdery stuff.... For anyone interested, Trojan's fine, lol. I'm embarrassed to know that, but maybe I can help someone else--believe me, by the time I'm at that stage, I'll need to re-verify, lol :lol:

Oh celiac3270,

You're killing me! :lol:

Well, the truth is the truth... no need to be embarrassed about having that tidbit of knowledge... you may have just increased Trojan sales! :D

Take care. B)

Yeah Kaiti,

I was laughing about that earlier...well, I think the original topic was addressed...sometimes we stray a bit...I just got tickeled at the whole thought of what celiac3270 said. Sorry 'bout that. :rolleyes:;)

Thank you...I was serious about that, but it's funny all the same :lol:

Ha....we go from Crest toothpaste to Trojan condoms over a fifteen post span. If anyone wants the blow-by-blow of the thread (gosh, stupid puns <_< ) it was that some guy noticed that there was some powdery stuff or something on "them." So he would...put "it" on and wash his hands...he said it's not very romantic to have to go wash your hands...someone said that he could have her put "it" on him or whatever...someone else said Trojan...I don't know how the thread developed, but I found other more pertinent posts to follow. :lol: This is probably a more serious issue for females, since---damn, I'd better stop. I'm too young to be talking about this :lol:

Thanks for the tips!! I recently spoke to a customer representative at Arm & Hammer and they assured me that all of their toothpastes are gluten-free.

It is good to know that Trojan's are gluten-free but check the lubricants. I haven't checked this year but in the past some of the K-Y Lubricants were gluten-free and others weren't. The customer representative explained that sometimes they did get gluten in the ingredients and sometimes they didn't. I switched to the Rite-Aid brand because it is suppose to be gluten-free. Although, I never experienced any detectable symptoms from the K-Y.

Just a thought... Vaseline is a petroleum based product that can cause condoms to weaken and increase the risk of pregnancy and disease.

On a happy note: hugs, compliments and kindness are all gluten-free!!!

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed...

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
