Colgate-Palmolive


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

GFreeMO Proficient

I got the following email response when I asked about toothpaste and Softsoap. Can someone explain what this means.

Thank you for asking about grain-derived ingredients in Colgate-Palmolive products. We do not intentionally add gluten to any of our products. For the following products, however, we cannot guarantee that the ingredients we use are not exposed to any gluten:

Afta Shave products, all variants

Ajax Cleanser

Ajax Dish Liquids, all variants

Cashmere Bouquet Bar Soap

Colgate Toothpaste, all variants

Dermassage Dish Liquid

Gel-Kam Home Care Gel

Irish Spring Bar Soap, all variants

Lady Speed Stick Antiperspirants, all variants

Mennen Speed Stick Deodorants and Antiperspirants, all variants

Murphy Oil Soap, all variants

Orabase Paste

Palmolive Bar Soaps, all variants

Palmolive Dish Liquids, all variants

Palmolive Eco + Dishwasher Detergent, all variants

Peroxyl Rinse

Phos-Flur Rinse

Prevident Gel

Softsoap Liquid Soap, all variants

Softsoap Body Washes, all variants

Sorbitol is an ingredient which can be derived from grain and may be found in toothpastes. Our sorbitol is corn-derived.

We hope this information helps you choose which Colgate products meet your requirements. If you have any questions, please contact us again.

Sincerely,

Melissa Zimmermann

They're just saying that for legal reasons. No one can guarantee that something hasn't been exposed to gluten.

I use softsoap all the time.

Agreed. I use many of these products on a daily basis and have never had a problem.

I agree. Just a CYA statement.

      First, welcome to the forum, @boy-wonder! Second, a little clarification in terminology is in order. Granted, inconsistency is rampant when it comes to the terminology associated with gluten disorders, but it has more or less become settled in this fashion: "Gluten intolerance" is a general term that car refer to either celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). "Gluten Sensitivity" is the shortened version of NCGS. Third, Celiac disease is not an allergy to gluten. It is an autoimmune disorder characterized by gluten ingestion causing the immunes system to attack the lining of the small bowel, causing damage to it over time due to the constant inflammation that wears...

      Has anyone found a gluten free parakeet seed mix? I can't find a single one! My doctor wants me to make sure all pet food in the house is gluten free but I'm not sure if that's even possible with parakeets. We love our birds so much! I'm wondering if anyone has ever made their own bird seed mix if gluten free ones are not available.

      Hi, new member. About me, I had been suffering with weight gain, bloating and irregular and extreme bowel habits for a year or so. For example, I went on holiday in 2023, then again I  2024 at the same time of year and every shirt I wore in 2023 didn't fit anymore, couldn't even do the buttons up.

I'd been lucky all my life having good metabolism and being able to eat anything and as much as I like without putting on any weight, it drove my other half mad. Over a conversation with a friend health and age Related stuff came up and he mentioned someone he knew who had recently found out they were gluten...

      thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.    all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful with gluten-free diet
