Gluten can be found in a lot of skin and hair care products. While it’s not 100% necessary for people with Celiac Disease to use gluten free shampoo some people find that using shampoos with gluten irritates their scalp or skin. Others who suffer with eczema find their skin feels better if they avoid gluten ingredients in their personal care products.
We believe people with sensitivity to gluten benefit from using gluten free personal care producs. Your skin is the largest organ on your body. What you put on your body is just as important as what you put in it. So if you don’t put gluten in your body why would you put gluten on your body?
While all of BOYZZ ONLY’s products are gluten-free you might have other products with hidden gluten in them. Here is a list of common items in products:
Common Ingredients In Shampoos with Gluten
• Triticum vulgare (wheat)
• Hordeum vulgare (barley)
• Secale cereale (rye)
• Avena sativa (oats)
• Wheat germ oil
• Hydrolyzed wheat protein
• Stearyl dimonium hydroxypropy (hydrolyzed wheat protein)
• Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl (hydrolyzed wheat protein)
• Colloidal oatmeal
• Hydrolyzed vegetable protein (may contain wheat)
• Dextrin palmitate (starch, possibly gluten-based)
• Vitamin E (frequently derived from wheat)
• Malt extract (usually barley)
• Beta glucan (frequently derived from wheat)
• Vegetable protein (may contain wheat, barley, rye and/or oats)
Now, the absence of any of these ingredient names doesn't necessarily mean the product is gluten-free — there are numerous other chemicals (some with very difficult-to-pronounce names) that can be derived from wheat, barley, rye or oats. Gluten-based ingredients also can hide behind catch-all ingredient names such as "fragrance," and the components of these may be a closely-guarded trade secret.
