I had one of these offered to me yesterday. But did not know any thing about them. So has any one out there tried Hornsby's Hard Apple Cider? Is it safe to drink? Looking on line I see there are other brands also. So is there any other brands of hard ciders that are save to drink also.

Thank you,

Grump

Almost all hard ciders are safe. Strongbow, Woodchuck, etc. If you want a really nice one, go after JK's Scrumpy Organic Hard Apple Cider. Its got vanilla and maple syrup. They sell it at Whole Foods if you live near one. Great stuff.

Last time I looked, Hornsby's, Woodchuck, Magner's, Strongbow, Wyder's and Blackthorn were all gluten-free. I'm pretty sure I've seen other safe brands; those are the ones that spring to mind. There is a rumor that some brewers add malt to hard cider, but I have yet to see a cider with malt in it so it must be pretty unusual.

Hornsby is the only cider I have ever seen listed as not safe for us. Whether that was right or not I don't know. I did ask on their website and will post when they reply.

I did find a phone number for them 877-467-6729 I'll try to call them later and see what they say.

I do know Woodchuck cider is safe, that is the one I usually drink.

I thought that Hornsby's was the not safe brand as well. I'll second the recommendation for JK Scrumpy's, that stuff is amazing.

I switched to ciders from beer after being diagnosed. I drink Hornsby's and Woodchuck primarily and have never had a problem with either.

I got a reply from Hornsby's stating that it tests out at less than 20 ppm. The same sort of response we get from Rice Dream. Since I am very sensitive I will pass and stick with the Woodchuck.

I drink this very occasionally because it gives me terrible heartburn. Has a good buzz and flavor... but Woodcock Green Apple is better. Still gives me heartburn though. I think my GERD is stirred up by apple juice.

That's good to know, Raven. I'll stick to my Strongbow and Magner's then. No questionable ingredients.

      Still testing positive after being gluten free for one year ?!!

      By Jenn D · Posted

      Hi. Did your ema levels ever go negative? My son is 2 years in gluten free and they are still positive.  I'm scared he has refractory celiac disease. Please if anyone has any info greatly appreciate it. His ttg is 3 which is considered normal.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      I will have that info soon but it was a laundry list of a test and 9 viles. ok so there were some days she was gluten she barely ate because of the reactions. I told her 3 weeks of atleast 10g’s a day and no gluten-free days. Thanks so much for your help! I didn’t know my suggestion for gluten-free days would have hurt her.    I will come back with the list to make sure the req was proper!!

      A "gluten challenge" of two weeks would be the bare minimum for expecting to render valid testing, and that would have been paired with eating a minimum of 10 g of gluten each day (the equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread). And with the three gluten free days in the midst of that two week gluten challenge I would not have confidence in the results of the testing. Was there a blood test done for IGA deficiency? Can you post the test names that were done with the scores and with the reference ranges used by the lab? By the way, with celiac disease the issue is not being able to digest gluten. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder defined by the fact that ingestion of gluten triggers an immune system response that attacks the membrane that lines the small bowel. The immune system mistakenly identifies the protein gluten as a biologic invader.

      Hey all!! M i want to thank everyone for their suggestions and advice - I am a single mother of 4 (now 3) and was helping with my oldest leaving the nest. I have another child with medical issues and with work (it’s our end year), life has been crazy and I haven’t had the time to answer.    so we got a blood test done for my daughter that can’t digest gluten. She had been eating gluten for 2 weeks. The blood work came back normal? How is that possible. I see her with my own eyes and it’s not normal. Is that not long enough?  I am thinking about having her eat gluten another week then go to the hospital and see what they say.    She did have 3 gluten-free days in those 2 weeks but she was getting afraid to eat and I told her to may take a day off - was this a bad thing to do? Girl was having constant back pains and muscle soreness as well. Headaches/migraines…should I wait longer. I did see 4-6 weeks of Gluten consumption prior to testing… kind of at a loss now.    Thanks to everyone for whatever advice you can give.   Enjoy your Sunday 😃👋👋
