Gluten Free Toothpaste

I know my blog's name has the word cheap in it, but I had to buy toothpaste for $5.49 at Whole Foods. I am still having symptoms so I decided I would try out a certified gluten free toothpaste. Other toothpastes that are much cheaper state their toothpastes are gluten free but are not "certified gluten free."

After I had my endoscopy, the GI doctor who performed the scope, told me to make sure everything was gluten free, including toothpaste and shampoo & conditioner. I thought that was a crazy idea. Even though you are not ingesting the gluten from these products, your skin still absorbs it and can cause problems.

The toothpaste is called Himalaya Herbal Healthcare by BOTANIQUE.  It is a 5.29oz tube.
