Peroni Gluten Free Lager

I was excited to see this and really liked it. For about 10 days I had one beer every other evening but gradually I noticed I was starting to feel unwell - i developed a reflux cough, felt exhausted and started to get a very sore throat - not a sore throat like you get with a cold - literally a painful throat. I stopped drinking the lager - had about 2 days in bed just sleeping - and I gradually recovered. I am 100% certain it was the beer. Peroni insist they remove the gluten and that it's safe but I absolutely don't agree and think it's very misleading that this is labelled as gluten free. Has anyone else had a similar experience ? I'd like to be able to have a beer but am now very nervous about trying any supposedly gluten free lager.

What is this beer made from? Is it made from a non-gluten containing grain such as sorghum or is it made from "de-glutened" wheat or barley?

Hi there - thanks for your interest - it is "de-glutened" - it's made using barley but they then filter it out - supposedly making it safe. I definitely reacted badly to it. Am hoping to perhaps try  a lager made with sorghum but am still a bit nervous after that experience !

I have drunk this beer without issue although people vary in their sensitivity to gluten. This beer is a barley lager that is treated with an enzyme such as Clarex to degrade any gluten remaining after the brewing process and then batch tested to verify that it is less than 20 parts per million gluten. The enzyme attacks the proline groups in gluten molecules - that parts that human gut enzymes cannot break down. Supposedly, the remaining fragments do not contain any epitopes that coeliac disease reacts to.

There are some beers that are totally gluten free. I don't know if you can get them where you live but Greens make some great ones.

Hi , yes exactly this issue last week after I had been drinking Peroni gluten-free. I usually have one here and there but had a few on a night out - been rough all week and stomach and bowel not good. Same with the cough and also awful skin this week too

      @Jmartes71, Have you tried a naturopathic or holistic doctor? Some posters in the past have commented theirs were more helpful than mainstream doctors.

      @HectorConvector, Have you tried taking 500 mg of the Thiamine Mononitrate that you have left? Thiamine Mononitrate may not be as helpful as other forms of thiamine, but since that's what you have on hand. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even at high doses needed to correct thiamine deficiency. No harm in trying it. Neuroplastic...

      This may seem non-relevant but I thought I'd add it here anyway to see what anyone thinks. Many might dismiss it but that's OK.

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse. I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown...

Neuroplastic changes in the brain may be caused by thiamine deficiency.   These changes can be seen in Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's syndrome, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. I googled "Neuroplastic Sensitization syndrome and thiamine pubmed" and see for yourself what it says.   Try taking 500 mg Thiamine Mononitrate and look for health changes.

I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I know lol)  and supplied it with all the clinical evidence I've had from tests etc.... After hours of "discussing" with it and finding research it "concluded" it's a chronic neuroplastic sensitization syndrome but of course said I should only get a proper diagnosis from a  doctor. When I saw the doctor on 9th February because this got worse he looked through all my medical history and the course of the "condition". I didn't tell him I'd used ChatGPT or mention what I thought it is because I still don't really know until I have a formal diagnosis. He came with the same conclusion as ChatGPT. Just thought it was an interesting co-incidence perhaps. As for myself, I'm not forming any conclusions til I can really know exactly what's happening and why and what stops it. Only then can I truly know.

I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown the medication max dose even though there is nothing physically wrong with my body. A bit earlier I had violent shocking evil burning nerve pain that made me nearly pass out and want to die again, also noticed this seems to be associated with sudden water retention. I've made hardly any pee in nearly 12 hours and despite drinking loads. Mouth is super dry. I am getting the "correct" sort of this when I've finished the current ones, so not long now. Can only get it on the internet here. Then I can say how it might change anything.
