I already know the spiel on high fructose corn syrup as I never eat or drink anything with those high contents of ingredients normally just stick to water when I drink. But I have a bout of the stomach flu and needed something besides water vernors had always helped me in the past does anyone know if this is gluten free. Same with Gatorade that's gluten-free? Just need something quick and convienent to drink.

I haven’t heard of Vernors.  But, in the US, Gatorade is gluten-free.  Most all soda pops are, too

I just looked it up on Target and it listed ingredients- looks like any other soda.  No gluten ingredients  listed.

Look at your own can and read the ingredients?  I have only seen actual Gluten in a soda once - that was a specialty craft soda with barley syrup/ malt in it.  There would be no reason to add wheat- but it would need to be labeled as wheat in the US

Yeah ditto, only ever seen gluten in these crazy craft soda in a specialty store and one case on a special edition Pepsi that used barley malt for a flavoring. On a side note I like to make my beverage, with tea blends and water flavor enhancers. -_- I can not drink a bubbly soda anymore just messes with me, >. > Though I do some times get a zevia stevia soda and crack it up and let it go flat for a few days before enjoying the soda flavor, but vs price I just turned to using sweet drops water enhancers and sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, and sucrose.

We love Vernors and bring it home when we visit Michigan.  I hoard it in the basement for any stomach issues that pop up. My son and I (both Celiac) have never had a problem with it.  Instead of gatoraide, consider coconut water to replenish fluids and electrolytes.  Does a better job and no chemicals or dyes.  Not coconut milk .  Coconut water.  They sell it plain and flavored.

I just got off the phone with customer relations at Dr Pepper/Snapple. They told me that while the caramel color comes from corn that Vernors and Diet Vernors are NOT Gluten Free

Because?    They don’t test?  Most soda companies don’t test. & the lawyers tell them not to say gluten-free?   That would add to the  cost for everyone .  

 

On the website , I looked at ginger ale and it specifically says it contains no gluten

      thank you for the insight  Thank a small elevation can be due to this or is it more likely to be cross contamination ?

      Blood Tests showed positive for celiac / Endoscopy confirmed no evidence of Celiac

      "Similar proteins to the gliadin found in wheat exist as secalin in rye, hordein in barley, and avenins in oats, and are collectively referred to as 'gluten'. The gluten found in all of these grains has been identified as the component capable of triggering the immune-mediated disorder, celiac disease." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28244676/   "However, it is necessary to consider that oats include many varieties, containing various amino acid sequences and showing different immunoreactivities associated with toxic prolamins. As a result, several studies have shown that the immunogenicity of oats varies depending on the cultivar consumed." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26557006/   "In 2007, a study showed that all the varieties of oats tested were immunogenic, with Lampton and Ava avenins inducing lymphocyte activation similar to that activated by wheat gliadin, while Astra and Nave avenins showed less immunogenicity, but still with a measurable effect.6 In 2011, a study showed that there is a wide range of variation of potential immunotoxicity of oat cultivars. It concluded some oat strains are more toxic than others." https://glutenfreeworks.com/blog/2011/06/20/why-oats-should-be-excluded-from-the-gluten-free-diet/   Silano M, Benedetto RD, Maialetti F, et al.

      I have read research indicating differing reactions to various oat cultivars, however, nothing suggesting that some contain gluten - do you have a source for that?

      For those of you who have had celiac for a long time what do your IGA and TTG IGA Levels usually show on follow up blood work ?
