Abs Redbridge Beer

Has anyone tried Busch's new gluten free beer called redbridge? I was a major beer nut before I went gluten freen and I've really been missing hops. I was pretty into good beers and it certainly doesn't compare to them, but its very drinkable for gluten free food and the beer deprived. Since I found this beer a few weeks ago I've had 18-24 bottles probably. Since then I've started to show some symptoms of gluten including a major outbreak of DH. I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same problem. It could very well be that I've eaten something else but this is the only new thing that I've really consumed in major quantity I think. I could easily see some contamination if the plant is the same and uses the same grain mill or something like that.

Anyway, AB's redbridge, safe for you or a reaction?

Went through a couple of cases before I got pregnant. Never had a reaction. It's good stuff.

I had only one and had some pretty bad gas pain from it. I also had a break out from it. I will no longer drink this beer. I'll stick to my Margarettas.

I am on my third 6 pack with no problems. I was just happy to have a reasonably priced beer that I could get locally.

The couple of cases and becoming pregnant weren't consecutive events, were they? B)

I had a couple this weekend for the first time, so far so good. I like the taste of Dragon's Gold better, but it's not $3 a six pack better.

i've never been a big beer drinker, but it tasted like beer to me. my non-celiac boyfriend says it has a weird aftertaste--definitely a beer you drink with a meal and not on its own. i didn't have a reaction to it--and just a trace of barley sends me to the bathroom.

It made me chuckle reading this thread about beer. Since so many people put pictures of themselves in their avatar, I always think it's that person "talking" when I read a post. As I scroll through the discussion of beer, it's a little girl wearing sunglasses and an infant!

No no no... :) lol... But I sure did love my Red Bridge before we started trying to get pregnant.

I have not had a problem with it. I am not a huge beer drinker (prefer wine) but on hot days nothing beats a cold one.

I too have tried this. I experienced some gas and discomfort, of the gluten reaction type, after drinking two beers on one evening. Tastes great and less expensive, but due to the timing of my reaction I will probably not buy it unless AB adds detailed information about the upper limit of gliadin storage protein concentration present in the final produt.

I have it every weekend without a problem. I guess I lucked out because I'm a big beer drinker as well.

Here are a couple other beers you may want to try:

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
