Hi, My adult (married) daughter has been invited to a friends house for a "girls night out" on Thurs. They're making "Cosmo's made with vodka. Are there any brands of Vodka that are gluten-free? I thought I remembered some??? Thanks Jean :(

I know there are a number of potato vodkas - it'd depend on what you've got in stores near you. I like Ciroq, which is made from grapes, but pricey.

Chopin is made from potatoes, but is also expensive.

All vodka should be safe because it's distilled. Distilling removes the poisons.

But if you're still paranoid about that and don't want to pay ther high potato vodka prices, Smirnoff's is made from corn. All flavors are definitely gluten-free.

A triple distilled potato vodka found in many stores is the Polish vodka called LUKSUSPOWA. I don't trust any of the vodkas made from grain even though they are distilled. Potato vodka is a little more expensive than the grain vodkas.

But why wouldn't you trust a vodka made from corn?

I drink Smirnoff and have no troubles. I checked it about a year ago and it was gluten-free.

I guess I'm being over cautious because I get lesions on my throat if I make a mistake. However, i will try the corn vodka the next time. Thanks for making me think.

Thank you for all your suggestions. I gave them all to my daughter! I foolishly forgot I could go to the food list in this site and look up the info!! She went and they made sure to have a corn based Vodka and she had No problems. (Glad she could enjoy a well deserved evening visiting with her friends.) Thanks to you all!! Jean :D

Iceberg Vodka is the best vodka I've ever had. It is also derived from corn and cost more than Smirnoff but less than the other potato brands. But it is better to me than vodkas that cost twice the price. What would a girl do if she couldn't enjoy a cosmo now and then.. B)

Anyone know about flavored vodkas? My favorite is Stoli Vanilla and I haven't had it in months because I wasn't sure. I don't know if the distillation process would make any ingredients ok.

      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!

      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
