Gluten Free
Gluten Free products do not contain Gluten, the protein found in grains such as Wheat, Barley and Rye that can bring about digestive problems, skin conditions and illnesses in some people. Gluten sensitivities can cause inflammation and irritation in the body, with the immune system of diagnosed Coeliac sufferers experiencing damage when exposed to products that contain Gluten. As a result, those with Coeliac disease often prescribe to entirely Gluten Free living and wish to avoid Gluten in all personal care products in addition food to avoid the risk of serious reactions. One of the most common Gluten-derived ingredients found in health and beauty products is Vitamin E, often derived from sources like Wheat Germ Oil. While the risk of reaction to personal care products that contain Gluten is low and unlikely to affect anyone aside from those with an extreme or severe allergy, many natural health and beauty brands now include a Gluten Free range for anyone wishing to avoid Gluten entirely.
