Here is an article on some gluten-free beer types. There are new GF beers coming out all the time and many of them have a small distribution so the best thing for you to do is ask your local beer retailer what they carry or can order.

Some brands of corn tortilla may contain wheat, so check the ingredient to make sure the ones you want to try are wheat-free.

Good question!

As far as I can tell, wheat may not be on the list of ingredients in some cases, so you have to call the manufacturer to be sure. I don’t have absolute certainty on this so better safe than sorry.

As for ground spices, this is very vague, and manufacturers take full advantage of such vagueness. Again, best to call their toll-free number, and if they don’t have one, they’re too much effort to buy from.

What are you looking for in the ingredients specifically?

The same with ground spices.

Gluten cross contamination. Unless you buy gluten free pats they are likely to have been proceeded with wheat and on equipment that processes wheat.

Your approach sounds sensible, even if you may have to cut out a few things you don’t need to. Cutting out wheat is the hardest part anyhow.

I always had stomach problems, anemia and case of skin itchies, and I was prescribed belladonna as a child for my stomach, cod liver oil for anemia, and later in life prednisone. As an adult, I’ve had at least three false symptoms of heart attack, winding up in ER but no findings of heart problems. I also suffered from severe arthritis pains and advanced osteoporosis despite a regimen of regular exercises. Additionally, I was diagnosed with IBS. My gastroenterologist gave me a cursory test for wheat allergy by a nutritionist having me eat Lorna Doone cookies and observing me in an hour-long test, only to say I don’t have celiac disease. I don’t know what she was looking for. In any case, I decided to simply go on a gluten-free diet after much research. I’ve been on this diet for three months, and my stomach problems, my itchies, and most of all, my arthritis pains have miraculously disappeared. But, I am still not sure whether I am simply wheat allergic or gluten sensitive. I am afraid to do a process of elimination by eating other grains that do not contain wheat for fear my arthritis pains would come back. All the health problems I’ve been through growing up and into adulthood had been a living hell for me. I am not so sure at my age now, I’d be willing to do experimentation. I no longer wish to see doctors who can’t figure out what is really wrong with me other than merely give me prescription medications that make me even sicker. I think I’ll just maintain a gluten-free diet even though I love barley and oats, which are suppose to be wheat-free.

The sooner your son cuts out wheat, the sooner the rash will stop – assuming that is in deed what is actually causing it. Only wait if you want him to suffer for longer.
Low-gluten is unlikely to help. Allergies are caused by the smallest amounts, and the rest doesn’t do that much more. For most people, it’s all or nothing. If you put your son on a low-gluten diet, you probably won’t see improvement, so just do it right, cut out 100% of wheat/gluten, NO EXCEPTIONS, and see what happens. It may take weeks to see any results at all so be patient, give it at least two months.
