Laundry Detergent

[KatieWI]

Hi everyone! I was just wondering if anybody knew what laundry detergents/fabric softners are gluten-free.

P.S. I'm new to this site, so I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Katie, and I'm from Wisconsin. I'm 18 years old. I found out I had Celiac Disease in March of 2005 (positive biopsy results). This message board has helped me a lot...everyone is so helpful and full of information. So, thanks for all the help, everyone!!

Hi Katie,

Welcome to the board.

I have never given laundry soap a thought. The clothes go through the rinse cycle,and you don't put them in your mouth.... I don't think it should be a concern.

For fabric softeners, I use Downy liquid or Bounce dryer sheets. Once again, I don't think it's something to worry about. Good question, though!

We use All Free and Clear. I hate to say it and I don't know quite why, but laundry detergent is an issue for us.

I also use All Free and Clear. If we use any other detergent, we all break out in hives... itchy rash... you name it. Not fun. I don't think it has anything to do with gluten though. Just very sensitive my family is!

Thanks for the help, everyone! That list should come in handy, too.

P.S. I am from Green Bay, Wisconsin

we use the tide that comes in the white package--no dyes, fragrances, etc.

Katie-

If you ever get to Madison, some other Wisconsinites on this website said that there is a bakery there called Sillyaks Bakery. I can't wait try it out someday !!!

[KatieWI]

Thanks Chasesparents! I'll have to try that bakery one of these days! I also want to get to Milwaukee to go to the Gluten Free Trading Company (Open Original Shared Link). Have any of you been there before?

Actually, I have not been to the Gluten Free Trading Post. BUT I will be going soon, to start saving on shipping costs, because everything I've been buying online, the Gluten Free Trading Post carrys.

katie,

I use tide free

I called proctor and gamble , they do not use gluten in any of their home or health products, I called for dish washer soap , afraid was getting gluten on my dishes.

so if you go with proctor and gamble products should be safe.
