I am reading so many conflicting reports on gluten-free Alcoholic beverages. I was wondering if FIVE KINGS CYPRUS Brandy(distilled twice from selected CYPRUS wines and aged in oak, AND PRODUCED FROM THE white xynisteri grapes of the Troodos Mts.) Unable to get in contact with manuf. yet. Cognac, B & B (Beneditcine/Cognac), Rum, are gluten-free. ?

Also has anybody heard of REEDS Premuim Ginger Brew(All Natural Jamaican Style Ginger Ale), brewed from sparkling filtered water, sweetend by a blend of Canadian white water clover honey, and pineapple juice from concentrate, fresh ginger root, lemon juice, and lime juices, from concentrate and spices. (no preserv/no artif anything) I believe it may be gluten-free.

If not, any soda's that are possibly gluten-free.

Thanks.

Can't help you on the alcoholic side but I can answer a few questions.

The Reeds is gluten free.

Also Coke and Pepsi brand soft drinks are gluten free.

Some people say that distilled alcohols from wheat/rye/barley sources are ok, but I personally avoid them. Non grain source alcohols like white rum and wine should be ok. (I've heard that dark rum can have gluten, but I do not know for sure).

The problem with dark rum can be the carmel color, sometimes not gluten-free. As far as alcohol goes that is going to wind up being a personal decision. Some people who have celiac disease will have a reaction from distilled spirits while others do not.

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.
