hi to all i wish to say hello.

i was told i had celiac disease about two years ago.I am still getting used to the diet but the doctors in hospital, could not agree that i was a celiac as i had a false positive result finally they told me that i was a celiac my bloods kept coming back high as was my older sister (r.i.p)

i have a question my hair is thinning and is bugging me i have heard on this site, that there is gluten in shampoo if so does any one know which ones. my doctor says that it is just natural most men lose there hair.

what do you think?

thanks

James

Welcome James!

We have the shampoo discussion alot. In the upper right corner of your screen, we have a google search of this forum. Just search shampoo. Watch the dates because products change. But I know we have had some mentioned in the last few months.

Hi, Nice to meet you. I am pretty new too. I used these forums for all kinds of quick lookups before joining. :)

In my effort to find gluten-free Shampoo and Conditioner, I found this company. Not only is it gluten-free, but they also say their products help with hair loss. I bought their stuff, but it was not what I was looking for in a haircare system. I had long hair and wanted typical shampoos and conditoners, this stuff is not typical. It is all about scalp cleansing, detoxing, and hair growth. So if you are interested, here is their link:

Hope it helps and good luck!

Suave, Dove and Garneir all will clearly label gluten ingredients. If you prefer organic Himalaya makes some great stuff and label their gluten free items and I think Giovanni and Shikai also label well.

However if you are not strict with the diet it may be what is going into you not onto you that is contributing to the hair loss. Do your best to be strict with the diet. If you need help with that we are here to answer any questions you may have and welcome to the board.

Hello!

I'm pretty new here too..I just wanted to welcome you.

I hope you find some answers as to the cause of your hair loss. Checking your hair care products sounds like a great way to start?

Also, have you had your thyroid checked? If it's acting up it can cause hair loss too..just a thought?

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Say what you will about Peter Osborne, but he gave me back my life. Back in 2007 he was not promoting grain free, but came to that conclusion a few years later. While I did OK on gluten free, I really saw the greatest recovery when I went grain free. I notice a huge difference if I eat a gluten free food that contains any sort of grain. I ache all over...

      celiac disease and braces

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free...

I ache all over, have digestive issues and my rash comes roaring back.  I think it is probably, because grains are sprayed with Glyphosate in the drying process before being shipped.  Thanks, but I will stick to my organic, grain free diet and continue to feel well at 73.  Not missing out on nutrients as I follow a strict supplement plan based on testing.

Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.
