I recently made a mistake and managed to get myself into gluten,
when I say recently, I mean yesterday. It was only after the fact did I
think about what I was doing. I had used latex gloves and had not checked
what was in the powder. I was thinking baby powder or corn starch, well I
was right it was baby powder, a nice mixture of talc and gluten. I had
taken off the glove and not thinking I started to bite my nails. Yep, I
was sick. I am still sick from that mistake. So I am creating
another list of household gluten containing items that are not (generally)
edible.
Medication:
Pills
Cough Syrups
Cough Drops
Vitamins
Minerals
Capsules
Toiletries:
As I have mentioned a lot there is gluten
in every type of makeup. So I will skip those items
Toothpaste
Mouthwash
Baby Powder
Bath Salts
Soap
Sunscreen
Household items:
Detergents
Rubber Gloves, Latex Gloves
Cleaning solutions
Envelopes (I keep reading that this is not
true, however, I have gotten sick off them so just don't like them if you can
avoid it.)
Random items:
Glue
Art Supplies (especially Play dough or
molding dough)
Gum
Pet Food
This is a basic list to get you started
and to make sure that you read the ingredients on things you don't PLAN on
eating. From my experience that doesn't always happen the way I would
want it to.
What other items have you found gluten in?
