If something has hops in it is that unsafe?

What about licorice? Is it safe?

I don't know much about beer. I know beer (in general) is not safe for Celiacs, but I don't know if its the hops or what the process/ingredients there is that make it not safe. I'm sure a beer lover on here will know.

Licorice-Like with most processed foods, it depends on the brand. Post ingredients and we'll help out. I am not a big licorice eater, but I'm sure there has to be a safe one out there! Plus, with halloween coming up, I'm sure they'll be many discussions on safe candy!

good luck!

Hops alone would not make a product unsafe.

Licorice candy almost always has wheat, although there are a couple that don't. If you mean licorice as an ingredient, I can't say.

Depends on the licorice. like Richard said, most of the candy has wheat. I drink licorice tea made with licorice root, and it's fine.

In beer, it's not the hops that has gluten, it's the barley, or wheat and barley if it's wheat beer. There are gluten-free beers available.

I imagine there's also a big difference in the ingredients for that fake licorice junk candy, and the real thing. They sure taste different too.

Hops is a vine, they use the flower for making beer (and they use hops in some sleep supplements too). It's a very pretty vine, I might grow some!

I dont' know what the hops question is about, and I don't know if you're a beer drinker.

But I'm working on getting New Grist into Bar None. I've never been much of a beer drinker myself, but once it was taken away from me it started to sound really good.

Also, a friend of mine bought me some fancy licorace - Trader Joe's, I think. And the first ingredient on it was wheat. So that was sad.

My husband just found out he may have celiac and he is a big beer drinker. So if anyone can give me the name of the gluten free beers that would be great.

Okay...I first want to apologize for not being clearer about my post/question. :huh: OOPS!!

When I asked about Hops and Licorice I was asking more specifically about products that have these ingredients in them such as shampoos, lotions, etc. I wrote that post this morning and i'm going on about 3 hours of sleep so no wonder it made no sense. HA!

As for beer...I like New Grist...

Courtney: COOL trying to get it into Bar None! I haven't been able to find any gluten-free beer here and therefore, travel out of state to get it. (Shhh don't turn me in for smuggling it in, haha). Last I talked to Earthfare here(which has been a few months) they said they would likely get some Bard's Tale at some point, but that New Grist would not be on the shelves b/c of the alcohol content???? Okay...whatever! I haven't pressed the issue b/c i've been satisfied just picking it up when i'm in our neighboring state...

Hops and Licorice don't contain gluten. However, that doesn't mean that the shampoo doesn't also contain gluten. Does that answer your question?

YES!

Thanks Nancym.

I've been checking out some face, hair, etc. products and some of them have Hops and/or Licorice in them.

RedBridge beer is gluten free and sold pretty universally (atleast in New England).

I know of three kinds of licorice that is gluten-free. Running Rabbit, Candy Tree and Orgran. Of the three, the Running Rabbit can seem a bit strange if you get any of the "red" flavors. Unlike something like Twizzlers or Red Vines, it is not just a fruit flavor. It is fruit plus licorice.

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I tried Bards Tale at a Celiac conference. To me, it tastes like every other beer I've ever had. So, I guess that's a good thing. =)

Licorice ROOT is gluten free. However, licorice candy- as already stated- usually is not.

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
