Kelloggs Gluten-Free Rice Krispies & Ener-G Bread

Has anyone experienced problems eating these?

My son (gluten intolerant) has had 6 months without any symptoms but has had severe abdominal pain and constipation this past week. I am not able to find any major gluten source in his recent food but he has been eating a lot of the gluten-free Rice Krispies and the Ener-G bread these past weeks/months.

 

I am wondering if it could be trace amounts of gluten adding up over time? Or simply the constipating effect of rice, of course...

 

Thanks for any comments!

I eat the Kellogs gluten-free rice krispies quite often without any problems.  Haven't had the Ener-G bread.

We have never had problems with the rice krispies or Ener-G bread.

 

Try keeping a journal to see if there is an environmental cross contamination or another food sensitivity.  If the symptoms persist or get worse get back in touch with the pediatric gastro.

Thanks so much for your helpful comments!
I do have a few suspects as to where the CC could have come from.

Good luck to all of us!

      Since I've been a member of this forum,  I've seen some people write that they have not been able to tolerate corn, and others nightshades - tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and peppers (including bell peppers, chili peppers, and paprika).    However, intolerances can be short term, just while you are healing.    So bear this in mind if you start dropping certain foods from your diet - you may well be able to eat them again once you are healed.

      Welcome to the forum, @Izelle! Normally, the diagnosis of celiac disease involves two stages.  The first stage involves a simple blood test that looks for antibodies that are pretty specific to celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the lining of the small bowel which produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood with tests specifically designed for this purpose. There are a number of these tests that can be run. Some are more specific for celiac disease and thus more reliable than others. The two most common antibody tests ordered by physicians when diagnosing celiac disease are the "total IGA" and the "tTG-IGA" test. At least these two should always be ordered. Here is a an article outlining the subject matter of celiac antibody tests:  If the tTG-IGA levels are 10x normal then it is becoming common practice in some countries to grant a celiac diagnosis on the bloodwork alone. The second stage involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to look for the damage to the small bowel lining typically caused by celiac disease's inflammatory process over time. This is usually done in response to one or more positives from the blood antibody testing and constitutes confirmation of the antibody testing to eliminate the possibility of false positives.

      Hi there, Please can you tell me exactly how this disease is diagnosed? I am also from South Africa Regards Izelle

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.
