Response From Burt's Bees

In case anyone is interested, here is a response from Burt's Bees regarding a few of their products.

Thank you for contacting Burt's Bees.

The Radiance Eye Creme is gluten free.

All of our lip balms, lip glosses, lip shimmers and new tinted lip balms are gluten free except for the Res-Q SPF 15 Lip Balm. This product does contain gluten and is not appropriate for our gluten restricted consumers.

While we can identify products in which we do not use raw materials containing gluten, we cannot certify that our vendors did not process these ingredients on equipment where contamination could occur. For the most accurate source of information, please refer to the list of ingredients on our website or on the product.

hmmmm. I've been using their lip products and I'm still having problems with gluten coming from somewhere. Sounds like maybe I need to toss them out?

I use Burt's Bees all the time, and I don't think I've been having any issues ... interesting. Maybe I will switch to something else for a while - is plain, regular, petroleum vaseline ok???

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
