I have used these products (body washes, hair products, lotions,
etc.) for a long time, and have never suspected them of causing me
problems. I recently wrote to the company, just to confirm whether
or not they are gluten-free, and the reply is that they are. I love
their products, and was thrilled to hear this. They are a bit
pricey, but usually go a long way -- and they are really of excellent
quality. They have a few retail locations, but none near me, so I
order from their internet site: https://www.h2oplus.com/retail2002/
Jeff, from their customer service, wrote me the letter below. I
reconfirmed with him that he truly meant ALL their products, and he
said that the statement applies to all of them. :-)
