Captain Jack's Parrot Bay Coconut Rum

I made a drink with this the other night, and it was Incredible!!! It was simply the coconut rum, pineapple juice, and grenadine. But, so yummy, especially if you like Pina Coladas. I checked on line and found several random sources that said this rum was gluten free, but could not get a response from the company when I wrote to them. I felt sick for the next few days, and was really bummed about it. Anyway, is it possible that the coconut flavoring could actually contain soy or dairy (which I can't have either). I didn't think alcohol would include any of these ingredients. Anyway, I am wanting to try the drink again to see if it was coincidence, but don't want to feel sick again. Anyone know?

I'd think it more likely that soy was your culprit, if you get the same kind of reaction to soy that you do gluten. Either way, it made you feel yucky, so maybe try Captain Morgan?

      Family education

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By peg · Posted

      Hi Scott, You mentioned in your response that you have been taking supplements long term.  What brand(s) do you take?  I ask because I've had a very difficult time finding truly gluten free supplements that have not made me sick over time from allowable trace amounts of gluten within the FDA's acceptable limits. Thank you, Peg
