Stupid question about beer


Oldturdle

Really stupid question, as promised.  If one opened up a GliadenX capsule, and dissolved the contents in a can of beer, would this remove the gluten?  Would it alter the flavor?  I have always loved, and have had no problems with, gluten removed beers, but can not seem to find any readily available where I live.  It would be nice to be able to go into a brewery, order a nice specialty beer, drop in a capsule, and drink away.  Am I dreaming?!

Actually the enzyme in GliadinX, AN-PEP, was originally used as a clarifying agent called "Clarex" that was used by some major brewers to speed up the brewing process:

It would likely be best to get a beer that has been rendered gluten-free using this enzyme:

and you could also take a GliadinX or two before you drink it.

      I agree with @trents, they should have run a total IgA.  What was the normal range for the DGP IgA test?  Different labs use different units thus have different normal ranges.

      Thanks for your assistance.

      Get your total IGA checked to make sure your celiac antibody test scores are trustworthy.

      I do eat 4 slices of wheat bread with almond butter. Yes it was a reference to my iron consumption.
