ARCHIVED Mary Kay Eyesicles Vanilla
Kristen Campbell replied to melblondin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi! I don't see anything in there that typically contains gluten, but there are a few common irritants in there that I (being gluten intolerant) am also sensitive to: Bismuth Oxychloride--a common irritant, but typically added to makeup (esp. mineral makeup) to create shine or shimmer, bismuth oxychloride is actually a heavy metal and known to cause skin... -
Gluten intolerance often presents itself in ways unexpected, including several common skin conditions. Ranging in severity from dermatitis herpetiformis to dry skin, avoiding gluten may have more to do with your plaguing skin concerns...

How Celiacs can Deal with Accidental Gluten Ingestion
Kristen Campbell posted an article in Additional Concerns
Celiac.com 01/03/2009 - Recently on a gluten-free forum, I found a post asking for advice on what to do after a woman had accidentally consumed a large amount of gluten. After unknowingly eating from her daughter’s takeout box, the w... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Lipstick?
Kristen Campbell replied to Ladycates's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I verify with companies that my favorite natural cosmetics are gluten free and I am so excited, because yesterday I even tested the Dr. Hauschka Lipstick (which is amazing by the way!) with the ELISA EZ Gluten Test Kit. Of course it came out negative, but it was a great experience to test it, and the kit was so easy to use! Here is the link to my blog... -
Since I can remember, my mom has been making massive pots of jambalaya. Of course, this is a dietary staple to most native New Orleanians, but my mom’s was always the best around. The warm, mouthwatering flavors still impress me every t...

Just one milligram. That is truly all it takes. As mentioned by Dr. Thomas O’Bryan in Unlocking the Mystery of Wheat and Gluten Intolerance, that is just one sixteenth of the size of a fingernail. During the lecture caught on camera, Dr. O’Bryan talks about a woman whose intestines were badly damaged by her continued ingestion of gluten and...

I'd Rather be Gluten Free
Kristen Campbell posted a blog entry in What Goes On, Goes In (Gluten in Skin Care Products)
After explaining to a friend the prescribed action for celiac disease or severe gluten intolerance—a lifetime avoidance of gluten from wheat, barley and rye—I am often met with the sympathetic reply, “that must be really difficult.” As someone living with severe gluten sensitivity, I know that most days it’s not so bad... -
Celiac.com 10/02/2008 - Anyone with confirmed gluten sensitivity knows what a web of conflicting research and medical opinions he or she must wade through in order to get diagnosed. Sadly, it is a rare thing for a patient to have to consult...

My last visit to the salon left my hair dresser quite concerned. While combing out my wet hair for cutting, she noticed that several small red bumps had just popped up on the back of my scalp. The rash-like bumps were not there before my shampoo, which to me made perfect sense: gluten in the shampoo. But to her, was a new concept: sensitivities to hair products...

Finding effective and 100% natural products that perform up to my standards was already a challenge, so naturally, finding those products that are also gluten-free was no easy task. In the midst of all my searching, I wondered if I was simply being silly. Since going gluten-free in my diet, my skin had vastly improved, my rosacea was hardly noticeable, and...

ARCHIVED Corn Gluten Allergy But Not Corn Allergy?
Kristen Campbell replied to BaileysMom's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Oh my gosh Shelley! I am seem to have very similar issues. I was recently diagnosed by EnteroLab as having two copies to the gene for gluten intolerance and having a severe intolerace as well as an intolerance for casein. And the way that I just found your post with searching the internet is by searching for a link between gluten intolerance and corn intolerance... -
ARCHIVED Product Reccomendation
Kristen Campbell replied to SunnyDyRain's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
If you are still looking, there is a pretty obscure one that I love. It is called sircuit soliel by Sircuit Skin. It is a fancy, spa-grade natural company that I learned of on EWG's SkinDeep site. I created a website naming my fav natural products about a year ago and scoured the market for the best and most natural products. Now I am revamping the...
