Could this be poisoning me?

Hello Everyone,

I am a month into my Gluten Free diet and the abdominal pains have pretty much gone away, but I do have constant pain & some days I do feel the brain fog & anxiety worse than others. I know I still have a long road to recovery & that its very easy for newcomers to accidentally gluten themselves as we are as experienced.

So I was healthy prior to Celiac, so the transition hasn't been to bad. Just the occasional things I had to cut out, and not eat out at restaurants for the time being. The hardest part for me is no longer being able to drink my favorite beers! I have found one called Omissions, which is labeled "brewed to remove gluten". I believe they brew with gluten containing ingredients then use an enzyme to break it down afterwards. I have read a lot of mixed reviews on this beer & how it affects celiac/gluten sensitive people. But I was hoping someone had some insight on this beer as it has become one of my favorites. Obviously won't be if it does seem to be what is giving me those bad days.

Also does anyone have any recommendations on beer they like that is safe for Celiacs. I was the typical Bud Light or really any light beer kind of guy. I have been told my numerous people that Corona meets the minimum pump requirement, but not sure if that is safe either.

Any information would be awesome!

Welcome to the forum!

I would go with a gluten-removed beer like Omission, rather than a regular, low gluten beer like Corona or Bud Light. We did an article on various gluten-free and gluten removed beers which might give you more ideas:

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

      Okay went online to check green mountain k cups .It was said that the regular coffees are fine but they couldn’t guarantee cross contamination.with the flavors. im trying to figure out since I eliminated the suyrup so far so good. I’m hoping. thanks it feels good to listen to other people there views.

      Thank you I will i have been on a strict gluten free diet ever since I got diagnosed but sometimes places lie about there food so there r some things that do get contaminated which causes me to throw up on end for several hours until I can't hold myself up anymore
