Hi,

I'm trying very hard to find the place where I saw the bromides listed.
I will keep looking. However, I came across some other info that may be
helpful.

This info is form CSA/USA, Inc.

Many common drugs have gluten or gliadin in them. Bayer Plus aspirin
tablets and Tylenol Allergy Sinus gelcaps, Tylenol tablets and Tylenol
gelcaps. I reacted very badly to Tylenol and that's why I researched it.
Pain med that is GF:

Advil Caplets
Advil Gel Caplets
Advil Liquid-Gels
Anacin Capleta
Anacin Tablets

Also stated that ingredients in soaps, cosmetics and detergents must be
checked if you are sensitive. Even odors that are breathed in can cause
trouble as they are absorbed through capillary action.

Cosmetics, creams, and lotions containing alcohol, selected polymers,
dyes and preservatives can be a problem. I found that my favorite lotion
had wheat protein as one of the ingredients. Common items which can
cause reactions are lipsticks containing oat gum, hair sprays, eye
shadow mixed and perfumes. Soaps and shampoos should be checked.
Shampoos can have wheat germ oil.

Stronger detergents such as Tide and Oxydol are reported to cause
discomfort for many sensitive celiac.

Celiacs with reactions to odors often report having hypothyroidism and
allergic rhinitis.

For more of this type of info and meds that are O.K go to:

This site may be the one to find out about the bromides and cleaning
products.

Hope this helps some.

Kim
