Gluten intolerance?

fawn · 10-21-2008, 02:27 PM

If there is anyone out there with gluten intolerance/sensitivity as well as Celiac, I would like you all to be aware of yet another HIDDEN source of gluten.

Laundry detergent. Can you believe it? Apparently, there is only one mainstream detergent that does not contain gluten and this is Arm and Hammer. I am going to call Eco's today as well as seventh generation because those are the two I use and I'd like to know this info. I found this out at a Melaluca presentation last night from a girlfriend of mine.

New news to others?

Wow, who would ever think of that? I have gluten intolerance, but I don't think I'm that sensitive. I don't any unexplained rashes or anything.

I think if you are super sensitive that could be a problem. I am a non diagnosed celiac, as I just can't reintroduce gluten back into my diet to be tested. I can't function when I am "poisoned". I know that when I bake for my husband and use regular wheat flour, I must wear a mask because I can't breathe in the flour. It makes for an interested time! I haven't had a problem with skin rashes with my current detergent. But thank you!
