Coeliac Disease

[sams dad]

I have been diagnosed as suffering from Coeliac disease, which means I can no longer eat or drink anything containing gluten, including BEER. Anyone else on here suffer from this, and if so , do they know of any gluten-free beers?

Thanks guys. Lots of information there. Looks like I'll still be able to enjoy a beer or three.

Thanks Alan. I can cope with a restricted diet, but I wasn't looking forward to totally giving up beer( not that I'm a heavy drinker) . Happily , now I don't have to.

Best of luck. My Dad's had it for years. The diet can be a pain in the arse (no pun intended !) but he has got used to it and his digestive health has been so much better since he was diagnosed and changed his diet.

If you don't fancy the gluten free beer there's always Cider or Gin!

that must be a bit of a bugger, i thought it was from childhood. imagine never being able to have an erdinger again. does it rule out whisky too?

My Brpther in law is a Coeliac sufferer.

Took a bit of time for him to sort out his food but after that its not too mmuch bother, and as someone else said it litterally has transformed him health wise now he is eating the correct stuff.

You will feel so much better soon, and beers arent a problem !

f***, sorry to hear that fella. It can be a bit of a bugger, I've heard, but I think it's easier to cope with these days. And if you do stick to the diet, you'll feel so much better.

Good luck

the response to this thread must have been a dream result for you!

Many thanks for all your kind words. I,m not too bothered about adjusting my diet ( to be honest I was probably eating too much junk food ), but I will miss my customary couple of pints of Harveys in the Brewery Tap before a home game. However wine and spirits are allowed so it's not all bad

On the diet front all the major supermarkets carry a range of foods that are wheat and gluten free. My ex-stepdaughter had it (got diagnosed at 4) and it took a bit of getting use to but in the end she and we got used to it.
