Hi Nanita

I've not had reactions to any food. I've eaten dressing, vinagrette, and dijon mustard containing white wine. I tend to be cautious, however. I also just last week tried an alcohol based hand sterilizer(needed for work) with no ill effect. To the best of my knowledge, vinegar, including balsamic, does not contain alcohol.

Things that I am very careful with are alcohol based mouthwashes and alcohol containing cold meds like Nyquil. Non alcohol substitutions for these are available.

I'm not sure about hair care products like hairspray. I shave my head so I don't use these anyway, lol.

I believe the toxicity of anatabuse to be completely insignificant compared to the toxicity level of alcohol.

Nanita, are you detoxing on your own? Withdrawals can be dangerous, I'm sure your doctor told you this.

Good luck.

Ron
