I already know the spiel on high fructose corn syrup as I never eat or drink anything with those high contents of ingredients normally just stick to water when I drink. But I have a bout of the stomach flu and needed something besides water vernors had always helped me in the past does anyone know if this is gluten free. Same with Gatorade that's gluten-free? Just need something quick and convienent to drink.

I haven’t heard of Vernors.  But, in the US, Gatorade is gluten-free.  Most all soda pops are, too

I just looked it up on Target and it listed ingredients- looks like any other soda.  No gluten ingredients  listed.

Look at your own can and read the ingredients?  I have only seen actual Gluten in a soda once - that was a specialty craft soda with barley syrup/ malt in it.  There would be no reason to add wheat- but it would need to be labeled as wheat in the US

Yeah ditto, only ever seen gluten in these crazy craft soda in a specialty store and one case on a special edition Pepsi that used barley malt for a flavoring. On a side note I like to make my beverage, with tea blends and water flavor enhancers. -_- I can not drink a bubbly soda anymore just messes with me, >. > Though I do some times get a zevia stevia soda and crack it up and let it go flat for a few days before enjoying the soda flavor, but vs price I just turned to using sweet drops water enhancers and sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, and sucrose.

We love Vernors and bring it home when we visit Michigan.  I hoard it in the basement for any stomach issues that pop up. My son and I (both Celiac) have never had a problem with it.  Instead of gatoraide, consider coconut water to replenish fluids and electrolytes.  Does a better job and no chemicals or dyes.  Not coconut milk .  Coconut water.  They sell it plain and flavored.

I just got off the phone with customer relations at Dr Pepper/Snapple. They told me that while the caramel color comes from corn that Vernors and Diet Vernors are NOT Gluten Free

Because?    They don’t test?  Most soda companies don’t test. & the lawyers tell them not to say gluten-free?   That would add to the  cost for everyone .  

 

On the website , I looked at ginger ale and it specifically says it contains no gluten

      Diabetes like symptoms and more

      Hey Talia4, I still try to stay on the lower end of carb intake but things are way easier for me these days. It really looks like a digestive issue at the core in my case   As supplements with meals I'm now taking 3-4x 650mg betaine hcl without pepsin (to handle larger doses) 1-2x Doctor's Best digestive enzymes   And daily Share Pommelozzini. This has helped my digestion immensely with carbs and fats. I'm way more tolerant of larger meals and things are a lot easier. Happy to hear any progress or findings on your end as well though!

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.
