Has anyone here not had any issues with bueaty products that contained gluten or wheat?

I have not had any noticeable effects from my shampoo, and it contains wheat as one of the first ingredients I noticed this morning!

I was wondering if this could be normal to not have any topical problems?

I also do NOT let any water run down my face either, I am very digilant about getting anything on my face mouth because of my acne.

According to my dermatologist my acne is bacteria related. With antibiotics in 2 months I am more than 75% clear now...and no cystic acne.

So I guess I don't at this point see a relation since the antibiotic is clearing it.

Although, I guess I haven't taken it in the last 2 weeks (waiting for my husbands new prescription coverage) and my acne is still clearing.

The shampoo surely isn't making it worse. I have always been careful about not getting anything on my face because I had horrible cystic acne.

Of course this isn't a very good scientific test because I went gluten free more than 4 weeks ago.

It took about 2 months for me to react to topical gluten. Then, after investing in multiple bottles of my skin care (that was "gluten sensitive safe" but still had gluten in it) my eyes started swelling. Changed to MyChelle and the swelling went away.

Was still using an Aveda product with gluten (ingredients were on package but I didn't have package) in my hair and started developing cysts on my scalp. Stopped using it and they went away immediately.

So, I would say you could develop a problem at any time but others never develop a problem.

My conditioner has wheat it in and I've used it without problem for the past 8 months.

I've never had any skin-type symptoms before, though, and I don't have any other symptoms when using it.

However, my conditioner only contains hydrolyzed wheat protein that *isn't* the first ingredient.

I bought shampoo that had a recall for undeclared wheat. I used it on vacation and had huge whelts after going out on the water all day. (Not sunburned)

We all seem to have different reactions.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that. I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I...

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer. Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks...

I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
