I've never had an issue this side of the pond. If I'm out I drink Bulmers Cider. Sometimes draft and sometimes bottled. The draft cider lines are for Cider only. -

Your post really highlights the financial and emotional struggle so many families face. You are not alone in feeling frustrated by the high cost of gluten-free specialty items and the frustrating waste when your daughter can't tolerate them. A great place to start is by focusing on naturally gluten-free whole foods that are often more affordable and less processed, like rice, potatoes, beans, lentils, corn, eggs, and frozen fruits and vegetables—these are nutritional powerhouses that can form the basis of her meals. For the specialty items like bread and pasta, see if your local stores carry smaller, single-serving packages or allow returns if a product causes a reaction, as some companies understand this challenge. Regarding vitamins, that is an excellent next step; please ask her doctor to prescribe a high-quality gluten-free multivitamin, as insurance will often cover prescribed vitamins, making them much more affordable. Finally, connecting with a local celiac support group online can be a treasure trove of location-specific advice for finding the best and most affordable products in your area, saving you both time and money on the trial-and-error process. -

Welcome to the forum--and you are absolutely not alone in your experience with a non-celiac gluten sensitivity that presents with severe constipation and profound inflammatory consequences. While the more commonly discussed symptoms are diarrhea-centric, your reaction is a valid and documented, though less common, manifestation. It is completely understandable to feel isolated, especially after moving to an area with less familiarity with this specific presentation, but your vigilance in protecting your remaining colon is not just justified, it is critically important. Your history of autoimmune disease (Hashimoto's) further supports the likelihood of your body mounting a significant inflammatory response to gluten. Many in this community share similar frustrations with a skeptical medical community and the social challenges of maintaining a strict diet, so please know you have found a place where your condition is believed and understood. Staying gluten-free to prevent further damage is the safest path for your health, and we are here to support you in that crusade. -

Hi everyone do you know whether when you get a draft cider if there is a chance that it runs through the same tubing as a beer did sometime prior? the reason I’m asking is that I’m trying to eliminate a source of hidden gluten that I think hits me about once a month. And I have a suspicion it might be cider from the draft at certain bars. When I am out, if I decide to drink, I usually order a cider brand that I know is gluten free. what I’ve noticed is that a couple times when I got a draft cider, I got symptoms of being glutened that night and the day after. This doesn’t seem to happen with all times I drink cider. I had a draft at a very clean brewery and I didn’t react from that, which is what made me start to wonder. Does anyone know if this is a possible source of getting glutened? I am like 99% sure that this is the cause and I think I’ll switch to bottle/can only from here on out, but would be interested if others experienced the same thing (or work in a bar and know how this works). Thanks! -
Hello everyone, I am at struggling finding gluten-free food for my 17-year-old daughter who has celiac disease. she finds things that she thinks she would like she takes a bite and ends up in the trash gluten-free food happens to be very expensive. I collect Foodstamps and I contacted the county to see if I could get extra Foodstamps due to her, so the ex disease, considering the food cost more. I am running out of options. Most stores don’t carry gluten-free stuff and we spend majority of our time looking at the ingredients and get frustrated because everybody’s looking at us, wondering what we’re doing and what we’re looking for so I’m struggling as a mom to find the best options for my daughter that she would like, and I didn’t know that he could also affect her mental health she does get a check up every six months, but our biggest thing is getting her on a good vitamin one that the doctor can call in because we have insurance and just trying to find food that she could eat and not waste we waste almost $200 a month and just gluten-free food that she just throws in the trash or that to sit on the shelf and go to wasteso if you have any ideas, please feel free to contact me with any ideas
