    I have used Ecco Bella and have had no issues - i was not fond of the foundation but I do use the concealer and am happy with it.

    Pillsbury makes a pizza dough in the refrigerator section that I use to make calzones and I think it is really good! In my Shop Rite is near the cut and bake cookies and butter!

    Thank you all for your great ideas!

    i know this question has probably been asked a million times but I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion of a good face moisturizer that is gluten free, sulfate free, and paraben free and you could purchase it in a drug store or Target type store? Thanks for any input!

    I only buy Boars Head Cold Cuts and I call my deli and ask if they could cut my meat for me first thing in the morning before they open the next day. So i know that machines are really clean. Before I started calling them I went in and explained my situation - they were very nice and went out of their way for me - as a matter of fact they did the same...

    My doctor wants me to change my cholesterol medicine to Lipitor. I am beginning my research now by contacting my pharmacist and the companies who make generic Lipitor (aka Atorvastatin). But I thought I would start here to see if anyone has ever had any issues with gluten and Atorvastin? Thanks for all the input.

    Thank you so much. Is it the Energi bread? If so would you know if it is the brown rice or tapioca type? I also look in my Costco but can't find it. Is it in the cold case? Sorry for so many questions. Thanks for your help!

    I would consider this to be one of the biggest drags about being Celiac - bread. I am trying to find a gluten-free bread for my son that does not need to be toasted that he can eat his peanut butter and jelly on at school that tastes most like gluten bread. I myself have tried so many and have just given up and eat salads - but for my son that is not an...

    Just wondering if anyone has ever used or knows anything about Alba Botanica - they make shampoo, lotions, and other personal care products. First, does anyone know if their products are gluten free? I have contacted the company directly but they have not gotten back to me. And if so, are they worth purchasing? Any input would be helpful. Thanks!

    Try these sites: www.pacificaperfume.com, www.100percentpure.com, and www.gabrielcosmeticsinc.com I have used all of them. The customer service is very helpful. All are good companies with good products.

    Yes - I actually posted about this not too long ago. I too thought GasX was gluten free and the few times that I took it became incredibly sick. My stomach as well look like I was going to give birth to an elephant!

    I only purchased it on-line. I know they sell it on Amazon as well. The website has a pretty good description of the product. I emailed a question about the color tones and Gabriel himself got back to me and it turned out to be the best color match that I ever had,

    I have been using Gabriel foundation and I really like it. Also Pacifica has tinted moisturizer and cc cream but it is not enough coverage for me. 100 percent pure makes a foundation I have never used it but I have used other products that are good.
  15. MichLab
    Thank you for that great information. I have used 100 percent pure and i agree that they have wonderful products. Just be aware i was told that the only product in their line that contains gluten is the mascara. Also, another great line to try is Pacifica their link is pacificaperfume.com You can purchase some of their products at Target and Ulta! They...

    I have been using the online website glutenfreedrugs.com as a valuable source for all of my medication since I was diagnosed with Celiac 7 years ago. Recently, I have been experiencing a lot of stomach discomfort so I turned to GASX which was on the glutenfreedrug list. I believe the GASX made me even sicker. I then searched the internet and found that...

    I like to carry with me a Gluten Free energy bar just in case I am somewhere and I am hungry and not able to get a gluten-free meal or for a quick snack. All of the bars that I have been looking at are so high in calories, fat, and sugar. I am looking for something that tastes good but still not going to be crazy fattening. Any suggestions? Or a recipe that...

    Just wanted to let you know that I started using their products not so long ago and they are wonderful. I have the Tahitian Gardenia and Persian Rose as well. If you like those the French Lilac is awesome as is the Island Vanilla scent. The Quench Lip tints are great as is their mascara. i am a real fan of their products. Their customer service is AMAZING...

    OMG - Thank you. This has been so helpful. I appreciate the time you took to give me all this information. Can I ask - do you find that besides from stomach issues you develop other issues when you ingest corn? Such as fatigue or mood swings? Thanks again!!

    I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease about 6 years ago and if have lived a 100 percent gluten free life ever since. I read labels, I am careful about cross-contamination issues; I check my medicines and beauty products. I am so careful about watching out for gluten. Over the past 6 months or so I have become super sick to the point where I throw up. Once...

  22. MichLab
    Have you checked glutenfreedrugs.com I find that list to accurate.

    I thought after years of having Celiac - that I had this whole gluten free thing down. I follow a very strict gluten-free diet. I thought I could always have on a glass of wine when I went out to dinner. But lately my stomach has been really bothering - bloating, headache - the whole thing. I now find out that what I thought was a given - wine was gluten...

    I actually contacted Olay about a month or so ago. Their response to me was they could not tell me if it was gluten-free and I should take it to my doctor. But according to them the biggest source of gluten in their products was the fragrance. I don't know - I just did not feel comfortable .They were not friendly and sort of nasty so I will not use any...

    I have been on the search recently myself for some gluten free creams and lotions. I had been using many drug store brands which i try to verify as gluten free but I have been experiencing many issues so I tried to change my cosmetics and lotions. I have found a company call Pacifica Perfumes they have many lotions and what not that are really nice. Plus...
