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!

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
