My daughter will be going back to preschool but we will be having a meeting next week to discuss her health problems (she also has diabetes which they knew last year when she went). She did not start this fall cause we had moved away to far but we are moving back closer and she will be going back to her teacher she had before. I want to know what art products should I worry about. I know play dough has gluten. Or do you think we should just get her hands washed afterward. I know her her teacher will do well with her she learned how to give her shots everyday so she could stay at the public school last year and she works with lots of 3-5 yr Olds who have special needs. I just want to be prepared for the meeting. Thanks.

there are many things that contain gluten:

crayons

glue

some paint (the ones teachers use to draw on face)

Thanks I didn't even think about face paint. Should I just have them wash her hands after they've used the supplies and before lunch.

Everyone has a comfort zone and we do not do play-doh at all. I don't feel good about just washing hands after playing with it. My son sucks his fingers too so that's an added thing we deal with.

As far as playdoh goes, I had great success with making my own for my 2.5 year old! Look online for the recipe. You can send it school with your child and let the tacher know that that is the only thing they can use!

While that is true, at school they often have "tools" to play with it with. That is my concern with crock contamination. On the "work surface" too.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
