Gluten-Free products

"Hi, I have been using your shampoo, facial soap, moisturizer etc. over the past few years and have been very satisfied. I do need more moisture in the shampoo due to age. Recently, I have been diagnosed with Celiac Disease and need to know if there is any gluten, oats, wheat, barley or other products that may be harmful to my disease. I am not happy with my diagnosis and am at the mercy of the producers of all products to let me know if their product does contain these ingredients. If by chance they don't- which would be great, I'm sure if you send info to the Canadian Celiac Foundation they would be grateful in knowing and would publish your business, that you have a product that will help 1:100-200 people of our society. I would also appreciate any knowledge in the ingredients that may affect my illness in your product. This is, unfortunately becoming a problem that is more common than not!! Please inform me." - Diane Farrell

Diane,
Skin care products containing oatmeal should not affect your disease. There is no gluten in Oatmeal. (The concern is that the oatmeal may have been processed around other grains containing gluten and that is the reason people are cautious.)

We have 3 products containing organic oatmeal.
- emu-neem soap
- clay-neem mask
- nori plus soap

We do not use gluten or wheat germ, and several health consultants I queried agreed that any oatmeal soap can be very soothing on itchy skin (which you may have) and since it is NOT ingested in the gut, it will not affect you. I have a friend with Celiac who was only diagnosed in his 20’s (his teen years were a nightmare). He now lives a healthy, gluten free life and weight has never been an issue...lucky guy! Having a name for an illness is the first step...now you have control.

I wish you the best,
