I got a question. It is my understanding (and correct me if I am wrong) that all wine is gluten-free. But I thought champagne was not all gluten-free. Isn't champagne a version of wine. Should I be more careful?

I was under the impression that wine and champagne are not things I need to worry about. Anyone know of a specific brand of wine or champagne that contain gluten?

I have read that any wine made in the US is safe. I'm sure people with more knowledge on the subject will weigh in soon.

Ecclesiasticus 31:36. Wine drunken with moderation is the joy of the soul and the heart.

Champagne undergoes a second fermementation at times (which gives it more alcohol). Some cheaper kinds add alcohol to it as they do mot use the second fermentation...

Before going on the gluten-free diet, I was a beer drinker - I loved beer!! So once I started the gluten-free diet, I switched to wine, and didn't have any issues at first. But after a couple of months, I started getting intense itching (very similar to the itching I was having during one of my DH outbreaks). I finally figured out that it may be the wine and quit drinking it. Guess what ... no more intense itching! I have read on this board that sulfites in the wine may be my issue, and I have also read that you should not drink ANY alcohol for the first 6 months of the gluten-free diet (not sure why). Any one have any comments on this?

Thanks,

I have worked for a winery for years, and our winemaker has assured me that all of the wine that he has come in contact with is gluten-free. Champagne is normally produced in the U.S. by adding carbonation to produce the bubbles. There is not any additive that I know of that would contain gluten. Yeast is used to help ferment wine, but it is filtered out to such an unmeasurable amount that it should not hurt those with a yeast intolerance, which I do have. Eggs and dairy products are also used as a filtering agent, but I have never had a problem with this either.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By cristiana · Posted

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
