Should beer count as "grains" or not? page

Your thoughts?

Hard cider.

I gave up beer because of the toxic effect I had from the gluten it contained.

I would count it as a grain unless you happen to have found a beer made without grain.

Applejack.

No.
Neither should the estrogenic effects of hops be a concern. It all gets taken care of in the fermentation process.

It's quite common to produce gluten free beer, plenty of home brewers do it.

Could the same be said about soy sauce? It is 'brewed' as well.

As far as I know the enzymes produced during fermentation destroy the gluten. Many soy sauce producers claim this also.
Unless you consume soy sauce by the pint it shouldn't be a problem.

You can get wheat free tamari a naturally brewed soy sauce whereas the cheap soy sauce has wheat as an ingredient.

Yes. Beer belly = wheat belly. Same thing, no difference, no good reason to have the stuff. Ditch it.
