Hi guys,

I just wanted to ask all the DH succeeded out there wether or not your DH flares up on contact with gluten, Wethersfield it straight forward bread or a cosmetic cream/ lotion etc?

For myself I find this is the case- I don't have to digest gluten to get a reaction.

My medical team keep trying to tell me this doesn't happen--- what's your opinion guys??!

Thanks in advance

J xx

Gluten just has to come into contact with a mucous membrane to cause a reaction. Any thing on your skin or hair has the possibility of being transfered by rubbing your eyes, nose or eating something with a lotion residue on your hands. While gluten is not thought to pass through intact skin if you have active DH lesions your skin is not intact.

I avoid gluten in all topicals, there are a few of us who don't need to though. Generally if in doubt leave it out for a bit and see if things improve. Also with DH you need to avoid iodine. Iodine will keep the antibodies active in your skin.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.
