Poll- How Many Do Or Don't Eat Distilled Grain Vinegar


fedora

Recommended Posts

Wondering how many can tolerate grain vinegar. I know some can not tolerate any vinegar, but I am wondering about people who do eat vinegar. I have avoided it, then had some in a spread that was labeled gluten free. I was sick to my stomach a few days later and my belly hurt for a week. It could have been from something else and I have not tried it again yet. Thanks

most "vinegar" in products is apple cider vinegar (unless it says "distilled vinegar" on the ingredient list, rather than "vinegar"). most of the stuff I get, by chance, happens to list vinegar, not distilled vinegar. but I've had both, and haven't experienced a problem. I don't myself generally use distilled vinegar in recipes, because I don't really like it (I've got a bunch of varieties of vinegar at home, but not regular "distilled vinegar" - different balsamics, apple cider, red wine, rice, for example). well, I do use it for cleaning. :) but many varieties (not all, you'd have to call and ask) of "distilled vinegar" are made from corn.

I avoid distilled grain vinegar unless I know for sure that it is derived from a nongluten grain. I also have to avoid gluten grain distilled alcohol. I break out in DH sores and get a gluten effect from them. I am fine with any other form of vinegar. I like to make pickles and I use Heinz distilled (from corn). As mentioned a lot of the distilled is from corn but I do call to make sure with a processed product.

Vinegar, any kind. No problem.

Never think twice about it. As far as I'm concerned, it's gluten-free. It's in my nacho slices, hot sauces, wing sauces, numerous other condiments. I eat nachos (made on Tostidos) every day, and hot wings every other day.

I have tested (with a gluten test kit) every major brand of vinegar, including numerous apple cider vinegars, rice,distilled, balsamic, wine, on and on.......all tested very positive for gluten. The test kit that I use is extremely accurate. I avoid vinegar like the plague as I always reacted. This is why I started testing to find out what was going on. FWIW All the best, Mike

That's an unusual name. What does it mean?

Thanks for the replies.

Mike, I do not like the idea of every vinegar you have tested having gluten in it. The homeopath in my town has been gluten free for 30 years or so and says all vinegars can be cced.

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
