It doesn't really work that way, if one has a gluten problem, one needs to avoid it all together.

However, I have just found a great gluten-free beer company. Have you tried New Planet? It really tastes like real beer. They are award wining and have three flavors.

I like New Planet, too. They are only in a few states right now - the ones around Colorado where it is made. They are working on the permits needed to sell in more states.

There is really no difference between low gluten & lots of gluten... If you're going to poison yourself it really doesn't matter how much poison you take! BevMo has some great gluten free beers, I think my favorite so far is Red Sail.

Gotta vote against the New Planet. I wanted to like it, really I did. Unfortunately it's costs more than Spaten, and it's about on the same level as gluten free "bread".

Learn to like wine.

Have you tried New Planets Pale Ale? Hubby thinks that one taste the best out of their flavors. Close to real thing. We do agree about price though :(

I do have to admit that when someone said on the board a long time ago that Bud Light was low enough to not effect us I did try one. Boy did it taste good as I was a big fan of beer prediagnosis and the sorghum beers to me taste nasty. Result was not pretty. I might as well have had a piece of cake or some phyllo. Just not worth it.

You have to keep in mind that celiac is autoimmune and it takes very, very little gluten to start the autoimmune action.

As someone else mentioned I now do wine mixed with soda when I want something refreshing on a hot day.

thanks for the feedback.....I probably should have joined a "gluten free" website but my daughter was just DXed with celiac so I joined this forum.........I was posting the beer question for me as I am thinking of changing my diet to a "reduced gluten eating style".....I will probably post a few other questions as I help my daughter out..........I do understand that she will not be able to have any gluten........thanks.....

You're in the right place. Should have just explained better. We have people who have doctors, dieticians & mother-in-laws tell them "a little won't hurt them". :o

You should probably stay gluten-full until you get your blood tested. Celiac is genetic.

With a kid with Celiac, you will probably be eating gluten light or gluten free at home. Just makes it easier.

I had one of the tests(not sure what one I am getting a physical in a month and will find out which one) and it was negative for any gluten issue. once I figure out how to use this website I will setup a signature. I can not find the CP.......I have about 20,000 posts on the "Auto forums" so I am sure I will figure this one out......thx again for the help

You have found one of the best sites there is for info. Before you go gluten light please do get at least a celiac panel done. All first degree relatives of someone diagnosed is advised to do so even if they don't seem to have the typical celiac symptoms. Celiac is genetic and it is common for there to be more than one in a family and with the different presentations that are found with celiac even if you don't have tummy troubles it needs to be ruled out.

Yep AB makes Red Bridge. Its actually really good. Gluten Free made from sorghum.

I live in STL (home of AB) and can get it and almost in grocery store.

There is another called New Grist that is really good also, but harder to find for me.

Its only in a handfull of upscale eating places that I know of around me.

Also, Mike's Hard Lemonade is claiming gluten-free now. Not sure but I drank one the other day when they changed the label

and didn't feel sick at all.

And Woodchuck cider is gluten-free.

Just some other options.

I agree about Redbridge! I drink it all the time, and they have it at our new Twins Stadium here in Minnesota! I was so excited, I ordered two as they are only at a few locations around the stadium. I had been drinking them out of the bottle the whole time, and at the game they poured them into a cup. They tasted like real beer!! I actually had three of the people I was with taste it as I was positive I got real beer. Lol...maybe for people who don't like it, they should pour it into a glass!...or maybe after two years of gluten-free my taste buds are playing tricks on me.

Woodchuck is always yummy :)

As for regular beers that are lower gluten (if that's what you end wanting because you don't have celiac), I don't think most of us know what they are. But definitely stay away from any beer that uses wheat.

I have a friend who eats reduced gluten. She's more sensitive to lectins than traces of gluten. She tolerates light colored beers like Heineken or Corona. I imagine she could drink Bud or Miller but why? LOL! She does not drink stout beers or nut brown ales. They seem to disagree with her.

MANY OF US NON-CELIACS ARE ON NO GLUTEN, EXCEPT TRYING TO BE ON VERY LOW GLUTEN FREE BEERS. GLUTEN FREE BEERS TASTE LIKE LIQUID CARDBOARD.

SO WHAT IS THE GLUTEN CONTENT (PPM) TO MEXICAN BEERS??

I HAVE READ THAT CORONA EXTRA OS 10 PPM, BUT WHAT ABOUT CORONA LIGHT OT NEGRA MODELO??

DO YOU HAVE A WEB PAGE TO CHECK??

 

THANK YOU PC

I read somewhere in the past that some of the testing they use for gluten does not accurately test levels of barley gluten.  So the beers made with barley can test low in gluten because the testing doesn't really work for barley.  Elisa test is the one they said is bad I think.  It works for wheat protein, but not barley protein.  So without proper testing, the PPM levels don't mean anything.

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Nikki03! What was the other result from the other physician's lab work? The test result you report in your post is not a celiac disease diagnostic test. It is a test for IGA deficiency. It is also known as "total IGA". There are other IGA antibody tests that are used to diagnose celiac disease but if you are IGA deficient, their scores will be artificially low. Obviously, you are not IGA deficient so if there were other IGA antibody tests run they should be trusted as accurate unless you had been on a gluten free or reduced gluten diet before the blood sample was taken. So, if you have other test results, please post them along with (this is important) their reference ranges. Raw test scores without reference ranges are not necessarily helpful as different labs used different reference ranges. Here is an article that describes the various antibody tests that can be ordered when checking for celiac disease: As you can see, there are IGA tests and there are IGG tests. What are your symptoms? There is another gluten disorder known as Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) that shares many GI symptoms with celiac disease and is 10x more common than celiac disease. There are no tests for NCGS so celiac disease must first be ruled out by formal testing.

NCGS is 10x more common than celiac disease but there are no tests for it. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. We actually know much more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS. Some experts believe NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease. The only known antidote for either is total abstinence from gluten. Joint pain is a well-established symptom of celiac disease, one of the more than 200 symptoms on a growing list. And many of them present as non-GI related.

      Well, as much pain as gluten has caused in the past, there's no way in hell I'm taking gluten on purpose.  What is NCGS?  And are there any remedies to quickly get over the swollen joints? My joints are swollen and hot to the touch and hurt.  For about two weeks they were too painful to even think about using them.  Six weeks later, I still can barely use my hands.  I struggle to get a bottle cap unscrewed they hurt so badly.  Edema in my legs and the knees hurt to walk.  And that was probably a minor exposure as the wheat was listed towards the end of the "contains" list in very fine print we couldn't read without a magnifying glass.
