Coffee, Wine, Balsamic Vinegar Processed With Gluten!


Peggy Anne

Recommended Posts

Peggy Anne Newbie

I found out why I react to wines, balsamic vinegars (which are made from wine) and coffee. They are all de-acidified by pouring over gluten and casein proteins! In Europe, they are having the makers of products which use food allergens in their processing to put a notice on those products. Here in the good ol' USA the FDA (which is run by industry personnel) is working for the manufacturer rather than the consumers, is fighting that restriction the same way they outlawed hormone free milk producers from being able to put that on their labels. Folks, we ran a huge petition drive against the FDA to the point it ended up in court and we won. Dairy farmers can now label their hormone free milk as such. The FDA is not our friend. We need to write to every one of our Congressional people to get the same law passed here in the USA.

Also gliaden proteins in rice and other non-gluten seeds and grains may make people react. Grains, according to the book "Dangerous Grains" by Braly and Hoggan (my bible) simply are not primate foods. Fresh veggies, fruits and meats are all digestable for us. But the hard grains are only fully digested by birds and ruminants. When I follow the "Chimpanzee Diet" as my hubby and I call it, I am 100% symptom free.

I am now 51 years old and no longer show signs of type 2 diabetes(was a skinny diabetic since age 15), migraines, MS symptoms(that I had had since college), fibromyalgia, restless leg, mitral valve prolapse.

FREE AT LAST! :D

I believe this came up in another of your posts. Could you please site the source for the information in the first paragraph?

Peggy Anne,

This is the second claim you made regarding this subject. This is absolutely untrue! Can you support this claim with verification?

Hearsay is not acceptable, when you telling people that their wine, vinegar and coffee is contaminated with gluten.

Accurate information on this site is essential.

With all due respect... THIS IS THE MOST REDICULOUS THING I HAVE HEARD !

I've heard and read that there can be casein in wine (and there are milk allergy warning labels on wines in Australia) but I've never heard this about vinegar or coffee. I'm in Europe so I'll check the labels and let you guys know if that part is true.

The only thing European wine makers have to warn about on labels is sulphites as far as I know. There is discussion about requiring them to warn about other allergens but that's not in effect yet I think.

I haven't found much info about using gluten as a fining agent, and I doubt that it would be used much, but casein is used, that's not a myth or anything. That applies to wines, I know nothing about vinegars or coffees. Googling casein fining wine will give lots of links, also to technical articles about wine making.

      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
