Gluten and/or Wheat Free
Many people suffer from eczema on their palms and their head.[11] Some find that wheat and/or gluten (the protein found in many grains including wheat) is the cause, particularly if they are sensitive to this in food e.g. celiac disease wheat allergy. Other reactions can include dandruff, thinning hair and hair that breaks easily.[citation needed] Shampoo can often go into the mouth, particularly for children, so all individuals who are on gluten-free diets may prefer to find a gluten-free shampoo. Shampoo manufacturers are starting to recognise this and there are now gluten/wheat free products available.
Wheat derivatives and ingredients from the other gluten grains are commonly used as binders to help the shampoo stick together and are also used as emollients in the form of oils. Following is a list of grain-derived shampoo ingredients.[12] Most of these ingredients do not theoretically contain any intact wheat proteins, but may do so due to incomplete processing or contamination.
- triticum vulgare (wheat), hordeum vulgare (barley), secale cereale (rye), or avena sativa (oats), including any oil, protein, hydrosylate, or other extract from any part of the plant.
- Tocopherol/Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), which may be derived from wheat
- Hydrolyzed Hydrolyzed wheat protein / hydrolyzed wheat starch, also sometimes listed as hydrolyzed vegetable protein, stearyldimoniumhydroxypropyl or hydroxypropyltrimonium
- cyclodextrin, which may be produced from starch by means of enzymatic conversion
- amino peptide complex
- maltodextrin, dextrin, dextrin palmitate, or (hydrolyzed) malt extract
- phytosphingosine extract
- amino peptide complex
- prolamine
- beta glucan
- Disodium Wheat Germamido PEG-2-Sulfosuccinat
- Fermented Grain Extract
- AMP-Isostearoyl
- PG-Propyl Silanetriol
- PVP Crosspolymer
