GF personal care products

[Guest guest]

Hi, I'm new to this group. I've been vegetarian for almost 10 years and vegan,

by default, the past few months. I've been off of gluten for a few months and

feel better. However, my digestive system is still tempramental, so I've been

mostly vegan as well.

 

I've used natural/toxic free products as much as possible for several years and

recently considered that my lotions, shampoos, make up, etc may have gluten in

them. do any of you know what ingredients to look for and which products are

natural and gluten free?

Do you find that you get x-contamination issues from bulk bins? I'm

too scared of the scoop being used in the bin next to it (oatmeal or

something) and then going back in the bin I want. The nutritionist I

went to warned me off bulk bins, and now I'm really wondering.

They're so much cheaper.

Shannon, is there a market near you that has bulk bins, but not ones that

people scoop into? I purchase in bulk from the bins that have a handle and

the bulk items pour out of a spout at the base of them. I've always

considered them pretty 'safe' unless the grocery who fills them messes up.

I share your concern on the other type of open, bulk bins.
