Okay, so now that I'm above the magic 500 posts, I thought I'd try to come up with some brilliant little thing to put under my avatar instead of "advanced community member"--although that does have a nice, respectable ring to it. Where do I go in my controls to change this? :huh:

Welcome to the 500 club. Has it really been more than a year and a half since you joined us? It seems like just yesterday. Time flies.

:lol: Isn't it hilarious...all of us (at least me, for sure) having such marvelous, human to-do-lists, full of checking out what certain people have posted here. A couple of weeks ago when I was hovering around 499 posts, I was making supper when I suddenly put down the mixing spoon and announced, "Mygawd! I am about to cross a great threshold...what am I doing here, standing in this kitchen?! I must go and make history". I left the rice on simmer, sat down and cranked off two posts, pushing me over 500. My family stood staring at me. So, there were no great bells or sirens as I crossed this line...and now I have yet another crucial thing on my to-do-list--changing my new Custom Member Title every so often. I get more high-maintenance every day, it would seem... :rolleyes:

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
