TrayS Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Ok, I have a question, hopefully this is the right place for it. Obviously wheat is a no-no to eat during W30, however I was in the shower and started reading ingredients on my shower products. I saw that my conditioner bottle lists a wheat ingredient. WTH, why is there wheat in my conditioner? And should I be concerned about absorbing it into my scalp? Same question for lotions applied to the entire body. These are full of random ingredients, no doubt the skin is absorbing at least some of them. Any advice? Do I need to start seeking out products with minimal artificial ingredients and/or making my own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derval Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Unless you're eating it it is ok for w30 but you might want to look in to gluten free alternatives. I know the balanced bites website has a lot about paleo beauty products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renee Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I'm pretty late to this but wanted to chime in anyway... If you're gluten-intolerent/celiac, I would remove completely gluten, including skin care and hair care. I read in Pimal Body Primal Mind that your skin can absorb the protein and it can enter your bloodstream (via blood vessel in the skin): when you're showering, usually the water is hot enough to open up your pores. Therefore your skin (including your scalp) is more vulnerable to products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
