Top 8 Non-GMO Beers & Wines
In recent years the GMO-free market has increased, but I’d like to see it take over! It’s hard to believe more companies aren’t catching on to this amazing trend. I hope to see a future where GMO and pesticides are gone forever.
When we indulge on treats, simple carbohydrates and alcohol, it’s nice to know that at the very least, the ingredients used are organic and toxin free. Some companies have figured out the appeal behind GMO-free products and now there are even GMO free beer and wine available to us!
Of course I’d like to recommend cutting alcohol from your diet entirely, but like many indulgences it’s very difficult to cut completely out of your life. So, instead I decided to gather some of the best GMO-free beer and wines on the market so that you can shop wiser!
Here are 8 healthier options you’re bound to love!

Why you should switch to GMO-free beer
I’m going to focus primarily on GMO-free beer because it’s more likely you’re drinking beer with GMOs than wine with GMOs, since grapes are not generally a roundup, genetically engineered crop.
I know it may seem drastic to give up your favorite beers like Corona, Coors Light or Bud Light but the truth is you could be doing more harm to your body than anything else!
Alcohol is already a harmful substance if it’s not consumed in moderation, so don’t you think you should be doing everything in your power to make it less damaging to your health?
I hope you think so!
GMOs have been proven to damage your health and it just so happens that barley, hops, malt, and yeast are known to often be genetically modified crops!
Did you know that beer companies don’t have to put ingredients on the label?
If you were proud of a product you made, wouldn’t you want to post the ingredients for the world to see? It seems like beer companies are hiding potentially harmful ingredients from us!
GMOs have shown strong correlations with the following diseases in adults;
– Cancer
– Hypertension
– Stroke
– Obesity
– Diabetes
– Inflammatory bowel disease
– Alzheimer’s Disease
– Parkinson’s Disease
