Re: Need help: Hives after colonic irrigation

Other than the declaration of food additives , there is no legal requirement for beer makers to list the ingredients of their product on the can or bottle. Beer can contain a number of ingredients other than the basic malted grain, hops, water and yeast. It may also have wheat, rye, corn or maize used in its production.

Have you tried drinking German Beers manufacturered under their purity laws??

Alcoholic beverages contain ethanol and other substances. The liver breaks down the alcohol (ethanol) we drink and converts it to a chemical called acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde is then transformed to acetic acid ("vinegar"). Problems occur if alcohol cannot be broken down. As well as ethanol, alcoholic beverages contain a complex mixture of grape, yeast, hop, barley or wheat-derived substances, natural food chemicals (eg. salicylates), wood and fruit-derived substances (eg. Histamine, tyramine in chianti), added enzymes (like papain) and preservatives (like sulphites). Severe allergic reactions have been described in people with allergies to proteins within grapes, yeast, hops, barley and wheat. These patients are not sensitive to alcohol itself. Furthermore, "fining agents" (like egg protein, milk proteins, parvalbumin and seafood proteins and "isinglass" which is a fish swim-bladder product) are sometimes used to remove fine particles. Whether these occur in sufficient amounts to trigger allergic reactions is unknown.
