I don't know how much faith I put into this man, but here's my story.

We had a neighborhood cookout on Sunday Sept. 4. There is a new family in town and they wanted to meet the new neighbors. The husband works for Anheuser-Busch as a sales manager. He is pretty high up as he has been relocating every 2 years or so to work up the ladder. He said they are coming out with a new product every 4-6 weeks right now. They are doing a test market in Boston on an organic beer. They are listening to the public as sales are slipping due to liquor and wine sales increasing. They are also coming out with some sort of beer that has the anti-oxidents from blueberries due to request.

So, he took his palm pilot out and started jotting down info about Celiacs! He was a little confused at first but I think I cleared him up. He was going to send in a request first thing in the morning. He was very interested in the fact that it is estimated that 1 in 133 people have it.

I am hopefull. I live in Wisconsin and it is truly a tragedy that I cannot have beer nor can I boil my brats in beer. They don't sell any gluten-free beers here yet. I am struggling as to where to go to solicit that I want them here!!!

Keep your fingers crossed all of you beer fans! There could be more options coming our way!! ;)

Oh I hear you there! That's the first thing that people usually ask me "Can you have beer?" and then they are totally horrified when they find out I can't. I mean, why even live in Wisconsin if you can't have beer! What am I supposed to do when we go to the Packer game this year??

Hello,

I've had Bards Tale Beer which is gluten-free. Its pretty good. You can order it online at internetwines.com. Although they are currently out of stock. Bardsbeer.com states that online ordering is under construction. So there is hope there.

Also, Ramapo Valley Brewery sells their gluten-free beer on the website. I have not had that one yet. It is expensive with the S&H but isn't everything we have to buy.

How are the Packs 3 1/2 pt underdogs to the Lions this week?

Ok. So I went to their web site, Open Original Shared Link

They have all sorts of stuff saying, "we have Gluten Free Beer", and a list of their beers. But I can't figure out what beer is Gluten Free. Surely they all aren't, every single one of them says it contains Malt...

Anyone try this beer before? Just trying to figure out which beer they sell that is Gluten Free.

I have had the same problem. I looked all over the site and I couldn't find any information about the gluten-free beer.

Jams, I almost weep everytime I walk through the store and see Spotted Cow. :(

Someone mentioned brats... BRATS! There are gluten-free brats???? Please tell me what kind!

I'll be eternally grateful and won't rub it in when my Vikings win the NFC north this year! :D

Yeah, right. Vikings my ass! :P GO PACK GO!!!

Usingers are gluten-free too.

I had the same problem at the websites for gluten-free beer. I am not very computer friendly so that may be some of the problem too. I did try the Bard's Tale, didn't care for it too much. I am a lite beer fan. I was told the Rampo Valley (sp?) may be a better choice for me. I just can't figure out how to order it! <_< I see the link that says to click here for gluten free beer drinkers.... but then it takes me to a page of information only. Any suggestions would be great!

Bum Bum Ba Bum Bum.... GO PACK GO! (You'll only know the tune to that if you are a packer fan!! :P )

Hello,

Well - it appears to me that Ramapo Valley Brewery has moved. They used to be in Suffern, NY & now the website says they are in Hillburn, NY. Maybe they are going through a moving process.

They also changed their website. It used to be very straightforward with the ordering process. Hopefully this is a temporary occurence. They do still advertise the gluten-free beer so hopefully it will be back soon.

Maybe the best bet would be to call them if you can find the phone #. I only found the old phone # on Yahoo Yellow Pages.

Go Giants!!!

Hey, Wandering Hermit - the R30 DVD is coming out in the fall. It was filmed in Germany. Also, it seems we are always posting in these beer related threads.

I just came across this old post while I was doing a search on something else. It's from 2005.

I thought in light of Anheuser-Busch's launching of Red Bridge, this deserved a bump and a HUGE thank you to Jams!

:D:D:D

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium. A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake. With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3. Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C. Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Insomnia help

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
