Beauty Products Made On Shared Lines


Strawberry-Jam

Recommended Posts

Strawberry-Jam Enthusiast

yeah I don't eat gluten foods made on shared lines. but I have a face moisturiser that I use which contains no gluten ingredients but it is made in a factory and on equipment that handles oat milk and wheatgerm oil. However it's from LUSH so the products are handmade, not factory made. However, I know that people with peanut allergies have had problems with LUSH in the past tho where no-peanut-ingredient items end up with peanut contamination and cause skin reactions.

however, it's in a lotion that goes on my face. even the small amount that gets in the mouth does not have direct gluten ingredients, only a small amount of POSSIBLE but not certain CC.

something I should worry about?

I don't have DH. I recently was having a good stomach but the past few days my reflux is back. it could be anything. I'd love to blame some product like the face cream but in reality it's probably CC from the curry i've had recently, soya CC in some new item i've tried, delayed alcohol reaction from new years, and so on and so on...

thanks for input

Do you normally ingest lotion that you put on your face? You mentioned the small amount that gets in your mouth has no direct gluten ingredients but you should be taking care not to get any in your mouth as eating non-food items like face lotion probably aren't good to eat anyway, never mind the gluten problem. ;) If you do not feel comfortable using something that may have the extremely small possibility of having oats in it, then I would suggest using a cream that is totally gluten-free. This is not something I would worry about, even being as sensitive as I am. I make a point to never eat face cream or make-up!

I think the other reasons you mentioned may be the cause of your reflux. You mentioned quite a few reasons, good solid reasons you may be experiencing it's return. Curry and alcohol would be far more likely than facial lotion to cause acid reflux.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
