Can Gluten Free People Use Wheat Bags?

by Jayne Bradbury

Hi there

I have a very random question to ask, but I am unsure on who the right person is to ask so I thought you would probably know. I am wanting to purchase a lavender wheat bag and I have celiacs disease. Do you know if I will suffer a reaction to the bag being the main source is wheat?

I hope you can help!
Thanks, Jane

Microwaves NEW
by: Natasha

Hi,
I'm not a genius with these things, but someone said earlier that the bag will carry microwaves for 20min afterward so you shouldn't use it.. What about the food that we eat straight out of the microwave?

Wheat bags NEW
by: Dr Armardox

This is the worst thing a gluten intolerant person could do, the wheat is absorbed into the skin through the pores and effects the inductive system, this can cause the immune system to shut down temporeraly and can cause long term stomach blotation, anal blochage such as constipation and hemroids, and can damage the internal system on a permant basis. Wheat intolerant means no wheat. Also any microwaved product should not be put near a human body for 30 minutes after microwaved, emmissiones are exelled to the body, wheat bags should generally be ovened although extreme heat to any part of the body is not advised.

Wheat bags NEW
by: Docyor simmons

A wheat bag can let the supply of wheat into your system simply through your sweat glands, this can asure you of bloating and used long term can damage internal stomach organs due to immediate damage, this is by far worse for your organs than consuming wheat. Avoid all wheat products, especially wheat bags, even in normal circumstances this sort of microwaved heat is no good for your body, it still containes microwaves 20 minutes after heating. For a ceoliac it could be more harmfull.
And deadly.

Use something besides wheat to fill your "wheat bag". NEW
by: Anonymous

There is no reason you have to use wheat in a "wheat bag" -- that's just the name that stuck. You can use any grain, really. Fill it with millet or quinoa, flax, rice -- all will work. The biggest key though is to never ever get it wet, because any grain will go moldy.

Can Gluten free People use wheat bags? NEW

This is something I've queried myself but I suspect not, as I do remember my Specialist telling me to even sit in a field of wheat, rye, etc would set off reactions of varying effects. I do know I can't use shampoos with wheat protein in ( burns my scalp) and I always know to check everything used topically as well as orally.

It is always best to err on caution but it sure would be good to use one at times - a hottie isn't as stable on a bad neck!

Maybe this is a market for some enterprising person - a 'Non wheat bag for Coeliacs'.
