Gluten Free Toothpaste And Other Self Care Products?

My 16 month old is gluten intolerant. She was doing so well for a while but for the last month or so has been having issues again. I am revisiting everything I feed her, and everything I put ON her as well just to make sure she is not exposed. I am trying to eradicate it from the house. I feel like I am at war with my house and its contents. In the process of figuring out my daughter is gluten intolerant I have figured out I am too. So what better time to get the house 'clean'. What mainstream baby products are gluten free? What mainstream toothpaste, hairspray, lotions for adults are gluten-free? We use crest usually but I have no idea if that toothpaste is ok.

Crest is fine. Suave makes a kids combo shamoo and body wash that is wonderful, I use it myself. Dove, Suave and Garneir clearly list gluten ingredients in their lines. Do avoid any that might have oats.

All variants of Colgate and Crest are gluten-free.

      There are some really good recipes here: Gluten Free Alchemist The woman that runs it is UK based, and has a daughter with coeliac disease. I think she might be a food scientist as she is extremely knowledgeable about the properties of different starches and flours etc. Coeliac UK have a lot of UK relevant information regarding coeliac disease, and also have a recipes section: Coeliac UK Find Me Gluten Free is a good resource to find gluten free places to eat out. You can use the website or download their app. Paying for the premium services gives more advanced searches: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Lot's of sugar can throw you gut microbiome off balance, and I'm not sure how that plays into DH, but it's certainly known that sugar can cause an unhealthy gut flora balance.
