Need help with a cereal (Corn free)

Before being diagnosed I was almost a 100% Raisin Brain cereal eater.    So I switched to Bakery on Main, Gluten Free Granola.   I was having nausea, lose stool, and would get dizzy about 30 min. after eating it.   Doc said to switch to Soy milk.   That didn't really help either.   Now I just put water in it.   But I think the corn in it is also causing me issue.   Can anyone recommend a filling gluten-free and corn free cereal.   I don't want to eat eggs and Canadian bacon everyday.   It needs to fill me up for about 3 hrs.

Yum, what's wrong with eggs and bacon?

i just got some gluten-free granola yesterday that I tried this morning and it's not too bad but it's got gluten-free oats. Can you do oats?

I feel your pain. Gluten free and corn free is difficult.  I eat Erewhon rice Crisps or Barbara's makes a rice crisp cereal as well. You can also try yogurt. Read the ingredients some have corn syrup or corn starch.  Just an fyi for you high fructose corn syrup does not contain any corn.

Love bacon and eggs but don't think it would be a good idea to eat it everyday :)

Not sure about oats.  I didn't handle KIND Raspberry Granola (w/oats) well.  But that was when I was adding milk.

I'll have to try Erewhon Organic Gluten Free Cereal.   Thx.

I myself may start eating eggs every morning as I've got to stay full from 6am till around noon and granola ain't gonna cut it. I might be able to sneak a snack but not sure of my schedule yet. 

Ill check out my granola and let u know the name of it if it's not full of corn.

of course the gluten-free oats might be getting you, not the milks....

Thrive Market Coconut Flake Cereal, Bob Red Mills Paleo Musauli, Julian Bakery Pro Granola  are corn and gluten free, the coconut flake and the Julian Bakery are grain free. You can also make porridge out of a nut based flour like almond, coconut, and a  bit of ground flax....taste wonderful with a bit of extract, I made a almond and flax one for lunch today with banana extract and stevia for a sugar free banana nut muffin flavored porridge + it was almost zero net carbs.

Peanut butter is always my breakfast when I want to stay full for a while.  When I am in a rush, I just eat a spoon of peanut butter and a glass of milk with some fruit. When I have a bit more time, I make toast with peanut butter. Cereal doesn't keep me full in general.

I know you said you might have trouble with oats (but if you figure out that's not the case), what about a bowl of oatmeal?

I have a corn and wheat allergy. I stick to puffed rice or oatmeal, and I do a fair amount of fruit and yogurt, although brand choice is limited, look for brands with rice starch as a thickener(liberte). Also, if you are going to eat back bacon( canadian bacon), be aware that a fair amount of brands roll the bacon rounds in corn meal.

      Before I could call them (after all my research), Costco Pharmacy called and told me they found a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.  Was told name is Amneal brand.  Said they called and company  confirmed is gluten free.  Only one I had found was Lannett so did more research and found:  “BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Nov. 12, 2018.  Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: AMRX) today announced that it has completed a transition agreement with Lannett Company. Under the terms of the agreement, Amneal will take over the distribution and marketing of Levothyroxine sodium tablets from Lannett beginning December 1, 2018 through March 23, 2019, ahead of when the Company's previously announced 10-year Levothyroxine distribution agreement with Jerome Stevens begins on March 23, 2019.” So looks like we’re good until at least 6/23/29.  Active ingredients are colloidal silicon dioxide, lactose, magnesium stearate, CORN STARTCH, acacia, sodium startch glycolate. Bottom line:  We can tell our pharmacists we need gluten-free, generic Amneal brand Levothyroxine.   AMEN.

      Given your severe symptoms it sounds like you would be much better off going 100% gluten-free!

      Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. This has been the most difficult and confusing journey to date for me, and it has been going on since 2015/2016. The last dietitian I met with works with a lot of celiac patients, so I was excited, but she just thought I should be able to eat gluten free (whatever that may be) stay in a carb count and my diabetes would not be affected. WRONG. I have tried this several times since I crossed over to full blown diabetes, because I get so sick eating gluten that I end up getting frustrated and go back to gluten free to get some relief. I have a continuous glucose monitor so it is easy to see how my body and glucose are reacting to foods. Unfortunately my suspicions are correct. When I eat gluten-free foods -like Schar breads or rolls, or the crackers, including when I stay in my carb limit,  my sugar spikes and just sits there.. .it won;t even come back down for hours. So in the end it drives my overall glucose and A1C up. I can't really even eat oats or things like that. Cereal is very iffy. Gluten free pizzas, gluten free nuggets, and things like that majorly spike my sugar as well, again, even when staying in my carb limits. I already feel so limited on foods because of the diabetes so of course, when medical people and family and friends are like just go eat gluten, I have been like oh okay - maybe it is all in my head and hey its way cheaper to eat gluten and tastes wayyy better...and then I end up right back where I am today,. MISERABLE, just laying around in pain, spending all day in the bathroom, having accidents related to diarrhea, constant tremors, heart rate issues, chest pain etc. and I forgot about these terrible painful canker sores in my mouth right now, I can't even hardly eat or drink or swallow they hurt so bad.  Not being able to feel like I can eat gluten free is extremely frustrating. I had some great recipes and substitutes for things, and was at a decent place with all that, until the diabetes went crazy out of control, so gluten-free living seems to not be an option for me. However, eating gluten when I truly still believe I am celiac -just misdiagnosed- does NOT seem like a wise idea. I am honestly scared  I am going to get deathly ill from all this or something. I even asked my GI doctor, more like begged, if he would please just label me as celiac and tell me I was for sure (like he did before) so I could get the support I truly need. No such luck. He just keeps saying but your tests were okay 🙄 My family went to an arcade and pizza/pasta buffet yesterday - obviously I didn't want to miss out spending time with my family and my mom spent money paying for my meal/buffet - and I was hungry, so of course I ended up eating pizza and pasta that was not gluten-free, because they don't offer any gluten-free options, and then my brother and others want to ask can you eat that or are you supposed to, and I am like well no, and I will definitely pay for it. They think it is hilarious when I say things and then make comments, like how it is so fun to go out with me especially places like that because I am not supposed to eat but I just do it anyway and say I will pay for it 😥 just seems everywhere I turn it is pointless and I have no support

      Just like you cannot be a little pregnant, you cannot be a little Celiac.  Here is an article I found that explains what the numbers mean. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Here is another article about the non traditional symptoms of Celiac Disease. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease? I've been taking 10,000 IU vitamin D3 since 2015.  My blood tests every 3 months for 25(OH)D have never gone above 93 ng/ml, even in the Florida summer.  70 - 100 is the body's natural homeostasis level. Surge of information on benefits of vitamin D "“When combined with supplemental magnesium, vitamin D repletion has dramatically changed my practice,” said McCarthy ... “There are now very few patients with infections, and asthmatics who are coming off medications are staying off of them. ... A lifeguard study that found vitamin D levels in the 70 ng/mL range up to 100 ng/mL (nature’s level) were associated with no adverse effects; ... Colon cancer data showing a reduction in the incidence of new cancer (linear) with postulated 0 point at 75 ng/mL;

      Interesting! Recent labs I had done did show that I was low in Vitamin D so I just began supplementing, it’s hard to tell so soon but it does seem to have a positive affect! Thanks for the input!
