My mom asked me to look for gluten-free cosmetics for her this week. It's been a frustrating search until today. I thought I would share the fruits of my search!

Neutrogena...has tons of gluten-free free products and customer service is willing to send it to you as an Excel file. It was updated on Jan. 15 2004. The list includes lipstick for those who have had a hard time finding something.

Mary Kay....I am meeting with a MK rep next week who has a list of all the ingredients in their products. We'll go over it with a list of "no-no" ingredients and see what we come up with. I'll let you know and include the MK rep's contact info too. She's done a lot of the leg work, so I figure she deserves the business.

Shaklee.....Here's their email reply to my request. It's a little odd in that it lists what is NOT gluten free in their entire line. They also sound very responsible about labeling and claiming a product as gluten free. Read it and you'll see what I mean.....

Fondly,

Carol Ann

Products containing gluten

Celiac disease is a disorder caused by the inability to tolerate gluten,

the protein component in wheat, oats, barley, and rye. The following

list is provided based on ingredients that contain gluten. Although

products not listed are likely to be gluten-free, we do not make that

guarantee, because we do not test for the presence of gluten.

While there are products on the market claiming to be "gluten-free,"

there is no legal standard for such labeling, and testing for the

presence of gluten is not required to make the gluten-free claim.

Marketers of gluten-free products may base the claim on the presumption

that, since ingredients in the product do not contain gluten, the

product is gluten-free. However, consumers sensitive to gluten should be

mindful that "gluten-free" products made in equipment and/or facilities

that also make gluten-containing products can contain gluten through

cross contamination. Therefore, people who are severely sensitive to

gluten should confirm that so-called "gluten-free" products are

substantiated by tests showing that gluten is not present in the

product.

Neutrogena Gluten Free (Wheat Free)

Updated 01/15/03

Be careful -- the Neutrogena list is only a wheat free list, not a gluten-free list. I discovered this earlier this fall after having conversations with one customer rep who told me that a number of products were gluten free, only to be told by a rep the next day that the products have only been determined to be wheat free. Neutrogena for years has been using the term "gluten free" to label products that are free from wheat, but had not determined whether they are free from oats, barley, and rye as well. They are now in the process of testing or investigating various products. The ones that are free from all gluten will be labeled specifically in their database as being free from wheat, rye, barley and oats. But, you have to ask the rep specifically whether the product is listed as being free from wheat only, or if it is also listed as being free from barley, rye and oats. I expressed my astonishment to the supervisor that Neutrogena continues to use the misleading term of "gluten free" when they really mean "wheat free" but they didn't seem to care.

      You may be cross reacting to the protein "casein" in dairy, which is structurally similar to gluten. People assume lactose intolerance is the only problem with dairy. It is not, at least for the celiac community.

I just wish doctors understood. I am with new gi and new pcp but im falling apart because blood work is fabulous.Im so ANGERY.I have reached out to my local representative, in Stanislaus but its just weekly stuff.Im going to need to physical go down there.Any recommendations on what to say and do because this is absolutely ridiculous. If I didn't have my husband though we are really hurting with one income, I would absolutely be one of the homeless population. Thats alarming begging to be heard about a diagnosis that was given as an adult and dealing with this, medical needs to stick to patients regardless of switching insurance or doctor.

I had to bump mine up several times when first starting.  It's a matter of finding what works for you.  Everyone is different.   Stick with it.  Some of the health improvements are very subtle and gradual.   Keep going!  You're doing great!

      Hello, @hjayne19, About half of the people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance nor a dairy allergy.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  When the villi grow back, the villi can resume making lactase again.  I react to casein. Keep in mind that part of the autoimmune response to gluten and casein is the release of histamine.  Histamine causes inflammation, but it is also powerful excitory neurotransmitter, causing heightened mental alertness.  Histamine release is what causes us to wake up in the morning.  Unfortunately, excessive histamine can cause insomnia.  Our bodies can make histamine, but foods we eat contain different amounts of histamine, too.  Our bodies can clear a certain amount of histamine, but if overwhelmed, chronic high histamine levels can keep inflammation going and cause other health problems.   I got very weary of playing Sherlock Holmes trying to deduce what I was reacting to this week, so I adopted the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet designed by a doctor with Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.   The low histamine AIP diet cuts out lots of foods that are known to be irritating to the digestive tract.  After a few weeks, when my system was calmer and healing, I could try adding other foods to my diet.  It was much easier starting with safe foods, adding one thing at a time, and checking for reactions than trying to figure out what I was reacting to with so many variables.  I learned to recognize when I had consumed too much histamine from different combinations of foods.  Everyone is different and can tolerate different amounts of histamine in their food.  B Vitamins help us make enzymes that break down histamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate and calm the immune system.  Supplementing with Thiamine helps prevent mast cells from releasing histamine.  Keeping a food-mood-poo'd journal helps identify problematic foods.   I hope you will consider trying the AIP diet.

      Insomnia help

      By hjayne19 · Posted

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.
