I had one of these offered to me yesterday. But did not know any thing about them. So has any one out there tried Hornsby's Hard Apple Cider? Is it safe to drink? Looking on line I see there are other brands also. So is there any other brands of hard ciders that are save to drink also.

Thank you,

Grump

Almost all hard ciders are safe. Strongbow, Woodchuck, etc. If you want a really nice one, go after JK's Scrumpy Organic Hard Apple Cider. Its got vanilla and maple syrup. They sell it at Whole Foods if you live near one. Great stuff.

Last time I looked, Hornsby's, Woodchuck, Magner's, Strongbow, Wyder's and Blackthorn were all gluten-free. I'm pretty sure I've seen other safe brands; those are the ones that spring to mind. There is a rumor that some brewers add malt to hard cider, but I have yet to see a cider with malt in it so it must be pretty unusual.

Hornsby is the only cider I have ever seen listed as not safe for us. Whether that was right or not I don't know. I did ask on their website and will post when they reply.

I did find a phone number for them 877-467-6729 I'll try to call them later and see what they say.

I do know Woodchuck cider is safe, that is the one I usually drink.

I thought that Hornsby's was the not safe brand as well. I'll second the recommendation for JK Scrumpy's, that stuff is amazing.

I switched to ciders from beer after being diagnosed. I drink Hornsby's and Woodchuck primarily and have never had a problem with either.

I got a reply from Hornsby's stating that it tests out at less than 20 ppm. The same sort of response we get from Rice Dream. Since I am very sensitive I will pass and stick with the Woodchuck.

I drink this very occasionally because it gives me terrible heartburn. Has a good buzz and flavor... but Woodcock Green Apple is better. Still gives me heartburn though. I think my GERD is stirred up by apple juice.

That's good to know, Raven. I'll stick to my Strongbow and Magner's then. No questionable ingredients.

      I cannot tolerate it at all - triggers burning and nausea, ditto aspirin.  Here in the UK I take Paracetamol.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!
