I stopped eating gluten about two months ago and the red bumps are gone! I never ever thought of the connection. I suffered with rosacea for years.

One weekend in 2008 I did a fasting cleanse and suddenly my skin was creamy and white with absolutely no redness. A year later I found an integrative physician, and a nutrionist who identified me as gluten intolerant (all tests for wheat allergy were negative). By this point I had almost no vitamin D in my tisses (normal range is 17-34, mine was 7) Its a struggle to stay off gluten. It requires a lot of planning, but it is worth it. Trust your instincts. Your body tells you many things, don't ignore them. I had a blush for a few years that I thought was extreme topical sensitivity.

See celiac.com http://www.celiac.com/categories/Dermatitis-Herpetiformis:-Skin-Condition-Associated-with-Celiac-Disease/ I also have a chemical sensitivity to shampoo from the smell (weakens my muscles and makes my nerves more sensitive) and a problem with rosacea on my nose. I have noticed that my nose feels oily and smooth after washing my hair. I am so excited to learn that Sodium Lauryl Sulphate and Laureth Sulphate cause rosacea in some people with sensitive skin. But I am curious that I have the combination of over exposure to sun as a child, PTSD, celiac disease, and a chemical sensitivity to shampoo. Hard to figure if there is a single cause with this combination. But perhaps a correlation? There are another set of symptoms of celiac disease for some people, dermatitis herpetiformis.
