I Triede Strella Damm Daura Beer

I posted a week or so ago asking for advice on beers. My local liquor store didn't have the ones many of you suggested but they did have Daura beer, with lists of awards all over its gluten-free labels, so I bought it.

I cracked it open after dinner and braced myself for an odd flavour, but it tasted like beer! Not amazing beer but beer. I was really excited so I continued to drink. After about 15 minutes I started to get a stomach ache, the type I haven't had for a few weeks since going gluten free. Within an hour my stomach had ballooned out to the point my husband was staring at it. LOL I made the comment that I hadn't realize I was always bloated, I just thought it was tummy fat, until I had gone gluten-free and my belly flattened right out. Dh continued to stare and said, "you better not be pregnant." LOL :lol:

He's lucky we've been togther 20 years or I would have swatted him.... harder. lol

So I was glutened by Daura even though it says it's gluten-free to 3ppm right on the label. I'll try it again this winter after I've had time to heal (it's only been a few weeks) and see if it bothers me then. In the meantime, I'll look for a millet or sorghum beer... that still seems like a strange thing. LOL

Sorry to hear about your reaction. I had a mild reaction to Estrella Daura about a year ago and at that time it was 6 ppm. I switched to Redbridge by Anheuser Busch and even though it is supposedly 0 ppm, it did not treat me right either. Perhaps I have a sensitivity other than gluten, who knows... It is a bummer because I do miss a good beer occasionally, especially now that the weather is nice....

I haven't tried it since my diagnosis, but I know before I knew that Corona seemed to hurt me as much as Coors Light.

I have tried a few gluten-free beers and felt a little bad, so I also wonder if I'm allergic to some other ingredient. I tried Angry Orchard Cider and also felt off. Woodchuck Cider didn't seem to bother me, but its so sweet that I don't really like it.

I've read from our archives where somebody tested Corona with a gluten food testing kit and it came up under the 10 ppm threshold of the test kit, so it might be as gluten-free as gluten-free beers.

I wish there were better tasting options, but I'm not in an exploratory mood regarding this yet. I need some unpoisoned months.

Green's Amber Ale and Dubbel Dark are both very good, the dark is a bit sweet, oddly. For Woodchuck's, the Granny Smith flavor has half the sugar.

Ahhh I didn't know that! Could come in very handy someday.

Two days ago, I was momentarily SO excited to see a new (to me) "gluten-free" beer at my WhFds. But it's just another "de-glutened" barley beer. AAAARGH!! :angry:

Brunehaut is the brewery & they make 2 "gluten-free" varieties using barley. Who wants to be the guinea pig?

They do rate very high here Open Original Shared Link

My liquor store said the have had Greens but are out... I'll have to check back or special order it. I've heard great things about it too.

And yes, I'm trying to leave my guinea pig days behind! LOL :P:lol:

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
