Hi everyone,

I read through most of the posts about Italy in the travel section, but I didn't find anything about limoncello. Is this gluten-free??

Thanks in advance!

Sally,

I sure hope so as I'm sipping some at the moment. One of my stepdaughters brought me a bottle from Sorrento. She's the smart one.

Of course I'm sure you know all about the Danny Divito embroglio vis a vis The View?

best regards, lm

Thanks so much for responding so quickly!

I don't even know what the base alcohol is in limoncello. I know that there's a ton (and I do mean a TON) of sugar and of course lemon flavoring of some sort.

I should've asked my nutritionist...darn!

I've had it before and had no reaction...yum! It is made from grain-based alcohol but supposedly distillation removes the gluten protein.

      Curious if I should quit my job

      Thank you both for your input! trents: yes I completely agree, it's simple anatomy. The walk-in doctor I saw even said to me, "you cannot get exposure or get sick if it only got in your respiratory system" to which I replied, "If I inhaled it, it's in the mucous I swallow that leads to my gut." I was honestly baffled I had to explain that to her. Thanks for your comments! Scott Adams: Thanks for your advice, yes I agree I think that's ultimately what I have to do especially while times are getting tougher in this current economy! Hopefully I find something new and equitable or better, in a quick manner! Please send prayers and best wishes for me to find a new job quickly, I wore the N95 masks today...

      Parent-to-parent, I hear your exhaustion and worry loud and clear – what you’re describing goes far beyond typical toddler troubles. Your daughter’s screaming night pain, terrible bloating, stalled growth, and constant infections are textbook red flags for celiac disease or another serious gluten-related condition. While her blood test came back negative, there are critical reasons not to rule it out yet. First, celiac tests are notoriously unreliable in kids under 3 – their tiny immune systems often don’t produce enough antibodies to register on standard blood work, especially if she wasn’t eating consistent gluten beforehand (which you mentioned was a struggle). Her iron deficiency alone is...

      Can you post what blood tests were done specifically for celiac disease, the results and reference ranges if available? If her gluten intake was reduced prior to the blood draw it certainly could result in false negatives on some tests. There is also the possibility that she has NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
