Hi, My adult (married) daughter has been invited to a friends house for a "girls night out" on Thurs. They're making "Cosmo's made with vodka. Are there any brands of Vodka that are gluten-free? I thought I remembered some??? Thanks Jean :(

I know there are a number of potato vodkas - it'd depend on what you've got in stores near you. I like Ciroq, which is made from grapes, but pricey.

Chopin is made from potatoes, but is also expensive.

All vodka should be safe because it's distilled. Distilling removes the poisons.

But if you're still paranoid about that and don't want to pay ther high potato vodka prices, Smirnoff's is made from corn. All flavors are definitely gluten-free.

A triple distilled potato vodka found in many stores is the Polish vodka called LUKSUSPOWA. I don't trust any of the vodkas made from grain even though they are distilled. Potato vodka is a little more expensive than the grain vodkas.

But why wouldn't you trust a vodka made from corn?

I drink Smirnoff and have no troubles. I checked it about a year ago and it was gluten-free.

I guess I'm being over cautious because I get lesions on my throat if I make a mistake. However, i will try the corn vodka the next time. Thanks for making me think.

Thank you for all your suggestions. I gave them all to my daughter! I foolishly forgot I could go to the food list in this site and look up the info!! She went and they made sure to have a corn based Vodka and she had No problems. (Glad she could enjoy a well deserved evening visiting with her friends.) Thanks to you all!! Jean :D

Iceberg Vodka is the best vodka I've ever had. It is also derived from corn and cost more than Smirnoff but less than the other potato brands. But it is better to me than vodkas that cost twice the price. What would a girl do if she couldn't enjoy a cosmo now and then.. B)

Anyone know about flavored vodkas? My favorite is Stoli Vanilla and I haven't had it in months because I wasn't sure. I don't know if the distillation process would make any ingredients ok.

      @knitty kitty  The information you've provided is invaluable!  I have a lot more homework to do before we make the official switch but you have significantly increased my hope that we can get her off Miralax (she started at 3 years old and is almost 8!).  This weekend my husband and I plan to solidify all the details for a start point, then adjust as we go along.  I realize that everyone's body is different, then there's also the fact that she's a child but just out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing and if you'd rather not, no problem at all-how long did you take Miralax before switching and when you switched, did you just completely stop the Miralax or was there a period where you did Miralax and the supplements?  I plan to research that piece this weekend but just curious what you did.

      Scott, thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. My doctor did actually just re-order thyroid labs to see what is going on with my TPOs. I agree that will be interesting information.  I think I know the answer to this, but as far as the biopsy . . .. that would be quite conclusive as far as celiac goes, but a negative result would not rule out NCGS, correct? Does NCGS also cause damage to the lower intestine/leaky gut?  I appreciate the thought that I should be open-minded to other causes. I did not have dysautonomia on my radar, so I will look into that. From a quick scan at the potential symptoms it seems like almost anyone could convince themselves they have it, very broad! I can see why that is a tricky one to diagnose. I did also show low vitamin D, I'm in New England so that is somewhat common. I have a memory of low iron on some lab result as well but I can't find it, so I'll look into that. My cholesterol is high too, so working on that.  While the initial adjustment was tough, I have actually adapted fairly well to going gluten-free at home. The tough part for me is I love eating out and traveling, so that has been a challenge. I suppose if the answer ends up being NCGS then I could maintain a mostly gluten-free diet but also experiment with the occasional splurges. Snowboarding just doesn't feel right without a beer in the lodge . . ... cider is just not the same!  Thanks again.

      I did some research and found out that vaccines put preservatives, sugar alcohols and metals in them. Which I have a intolerance too.  I was supposed to do testing to find out metal's I was allergic to because I can't  wear jewelry of any kind. Mayo felt I had other allergies also.

      For individuals who have experienced negative reactions to the flu vaccine, there are alternative formulations that may reduce the risk of allergic responses. Traditional flu vaccines are typically produced using egg-based methods, which can pose issues for those with egg allergies. However, there are now several egg-free options available, such as cell-based and recombinant flu vaccines. Recombinant Vaccines (e.g., Flublok Quadrivalent): These are produced without the use of eggs and are grown in insect cells, making them a suitable option for individuals with egg allergies. Cell-Based Vaccines (e.g., Flucelvax Quadrivalent): These vaccines are also egg-free and are produced using mammalian cell cultures, which can be a safer alternative for those with egg allergies. Other Considerations: If you have had a reaction to a specific component of the flu vaccine (e.g., gelatin, preservatives, or antibiotics), discussing your medical history with a healthcare provider is crucial. They can help identify vaccines that exclude these ingredients. It's important to consult with an allergist or healthcare provider to determine the safest option based on your specific allergies and medical history. They can also provide guidance on pre-vaccination testing or desensitization protocols if necessary. Also, at @trents mentioned, could you be getting hidden gluten in your diet? Do you eat in restaurants? If so, this could be why you still have high gluten antibodies.

      Mayo is great and yes I had the same experience.  They take you seriously and they check everything.  I to wish other Dr's cared that much. I sure hope it's not refractory celiac also.
