Prairie Path Beer Is Not Gluten Free :(

Hey guys,

As a person with celiac disease, I was super excited after trying Two Brothers Prairie Path beer, after claiming they are gluten free (with less than 5ppm of gluten). I had gotten sick off this beer 3x. So I decided to do my own test. I used the EZ gluten strips which detect any trace amount of gluten. This kit tells you if a product is Negative for gluten, Positive, High Positive, or Very High Positive for gluten.

 

Results: "very high positive for gluten"

I was so sad! For a company to claim they are gluten free, they are not!!!

 

This kit is great and I highly recommend it. It does cost a lot, but I think it's worth testing products you have in your diet a lot. For me: I gotta check my booze :)

 

I tested Red Box wine, Jack Daniels whiskey, and Jamesons whiskey: they all came back clear: Negative for gluten!!! This kit is very accurate as I have tested crackers and leftovers from a restaurant I got sick off of and they as well tested positive for gluten.

 

Just thought I'd let ya know.

 

So do NOT buy Prairie Path unless you want to go diarrhea and destroy your intestines.

I think it is a great tool to have a few of those home test kits for when you just can't figure out what has the gluten in it.  Worth the price in my opinion.  

 

I checked out their website Open Original Shared Link and it looks like it is one of the gluten removed beers.  There is another one called omission that causes a lot of commotion about whether or not it is safe- I won't drink it.  Of course I was never a beer lover anyways.  But anyways, if you haven't written them to let them know, I think that would be a good idea.

Agree!! Emailing them is a great thing to do. Just let them know. I'm scared of anything these days!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Try adding some Thiamine Hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) and see if there's any difference. Thiamine HCl uses special thiamine transporters to get inside cells. I take it myself. Tryptophan will help heal the intestines. Tryptophan is that amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. I take mine with magnesium before bedtime...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I live in the upper mid-west and was just diagnosed with marsh 3c celiac less than a month ago. As a 51 year old male, I now take a couple of different gluten free vitamins. I have not noticed any reaction to either of these items. Both were purchased from Amazon. 1. Nature Made Multivitamin For Him with No Iron 2. Gade Nutrition Organic Quercetin...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.
