how true about the gluten-free adult cereals - they are too sweet.

Quaker used to make a gluten (off limits now) cereal called Corn Bran and we liked it before going gluten-free. Since it's corn, why can't a gluten-free manufacturer make this same type of cereal? it has corn bran as the fiber.

I am trying to find pure corn bran to add it to my husband's gluten-free homemade corn bread and I can't find this product. Can anyone offer suggestions of where to find this? I've checked Celiac.com shopping site, and Gluten Free Trading Co. and Gluten free pantry with no luck.

The rice crunch ums are not sweet! Yay! They are pretty bland, though, but a nice change from the sweet cereals.

Has anybody tried cream of rice (like cream of wheat, only rice)?

mat4mel,

We eat the Cream of Rice. It is a little bland, so you have to add something for flavor, like cinnamon or fruit or something. We also like Rice & Shine brown rice hot cereal by Arrowhead Mills. It has more flavor and texture. One of my kids likes it a lot (he says it tastes like oatmeal), one likes it sometimes, the other doesn't like it much.

Debmidge,

We also used to eat Corn Bran. My kids loved it too. It seems to me there are a lot of good non-sugar laden cereals out there that could be made to be gluten free. It is frustrating to have to be limited to sugar cereals and only a few healthier gluten-free choices.

God bless,

Mariann

I notice somebody on this thread mentioned eating Honey Comb, Alpha-Bits and Corn Pops. Bad idea. None are gluten-free.

As for Kraft dressings -- you don't need any list at all for Kraft. For well over a year now Kraft has had a poilicy of clearly listing any gluten. If something is made wheat, rye or barley, it will say so.

ALL Lipton is gluten-free.

Here is the link for that list again. Just click on it.

I just clicked and it worked. Do you have Acrobat Reader, which you need to dowload the list?

If not you can get it free at the Acrobat web site.

Hi Kelly, Most people do have Adobe Acrobat on their computer. You will need that to open the file. Once you click on the link it should open up in a new window, but depending on the speed of your computer it may take a few minutes to open up the file. It is quite large (49pgs!). I hope this helps.

Also they updated the list and have a new link to it. The link that lovegrov (Richard) posted is old and won't work. Only this one will work.

God bless,

I just clicked and had no problem. You do get a blank web page but your computer should also download a PDF file. Do you have Acrobat Reader? You have to have that.

Help for Kelly R:

Go to: Open Original Shared Link

Go to the bottom of the page where you see this paragraph:

The support group has an ongoing group project. A list of gluten free foods was compiled by one of our members (who prefers to be anonymous). As a group we are reviewing this and reworking it. The list is one of foods that are OK, in contrast to many lists that are lists of prohibited foods. Last updated 5/11/2004.

Click on "A list of gluten free foods" and it will take you right to the .pdf list.

When you get there, bookmark it!

Thanks for posting this...I had tried to access the old list not too long ago and was told that it no longer existed. Honestly, I am not a big fan of these lists....as people find mistakes in them I lose confidence in their accuracy. I prefer to find out from the actual company or from the board, although numbers to call the companies are helpful.

Hello all-

I wasn't able to open this pdf from here either, but truncated the URL down to Open Original Shared Link and placed in my Internet Explorer address bar. It took me to a page where I could scroll down and clicked on "a list of gluten free foods' link which took me to an updated (May 2004) pdf of 49 pages. Please give that a try. Thank you to those who brought this list to everyone's attention. What a blessing.

I had problems using the original link, back on the 1st post.

I have Acrobat, and have been able to open every other link.

Once I modified the link sligtly be removing the very end of it,

the page came up, with LOTS of interesting information.

The beginning of the site is about some Dr.'s offices, but, further

down, there is ALOT of information about Celiac, including medication

lists, and much more.

Here is the link I used:

:unsure: Hi folks, I am totally new. I have been diagnosed for years as IBS but have just got sicker and sicker on the ibs diet. Anyway a dietician I went to the other day thinks I am celiac. I am about to have a scope and in the meantime have started the diet. To me it isn't too much of a nuisance. Remember I was IBS (supposidly) and haven't been able to eat much of anything for the last little while (cause it wasn't working). For me to not be in agony with bloating and gerd is great. I have stayed away from gluten for the past two days and instantly I was able to come off of my meds. that I was given for IBS. I am feeling so much better already. I know I have a long way to go. I also know that I am not supposed to come off of gluten until the tesing is done. Well, I have been so sick for so long it just feels so good to be a bit better. I am sure there is so much damage in there that a couple of weeks with not much gluten won't do much harm (scope wise). ANyway I can't seem to get into this mac file fo rthe list of foods. All I get is a message saying there is nobody of that name or something like that. Can anyone send me a link that I can get into? I am used to the IBS forums, it was lovely talking to others with that problem. Unfortunately it didn't help me, I am truely hoping that this regime will! Many thanks, Anita.

Hi, I couldn't open this file either...... :(

I have a question though, my daughter was doing fine for a few days and then I gave her food w/cheese and it upset her stomach. I haven't given her any more after that but she's still not 100%. I've stopped giving her regular milk, but some products contain milk, could it be that? I'm confused and stressed out trying to figure out what's causing her to get sick again. I try using all the lists I have w/gluten-free foods. Thanks.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Navigating medication safety with Celiac disease can be incredibly stressful, especially when dealing with asthma and severe allergies on top of it. While I don't have personal experience with the HealthA2Z brand of cetirizine, your caution is absolutely warranted. The inactive ingredients in pills, known as excipients, are often where gluten can be hidden, and since the FDA does not require gluten-free labeling for prescription or over-the-counter drugs, the manufacturer's word is essential. The fact that you cannot get a clear answer from Allegiant Health is a significant red flag; a company that is confident its product is gluten-free will typically have a customer service protocol to answer that exact question. In situations like this, the safest course of action is to consider this product "guilty until proven innocent" and avoid it. A better alternative would be to ask your pharmacist or doctor to help you identify a major national brand of cetirizine (like Zyrtec) whose manufacturer has a verified, publicly stated gluten-free policy for that specific medication. It's not worth the risk to your health when reliable, verifiable options are almost certainly available to you. You can search this site for USA prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Protein or fat?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you're describing is indeed familiar to many in the Celiac community, especially in the early stages of healing. When the intestinal villi are damaged from Celiac disease, they struggle to properly digest and absorb fats, a condition known as bile acid malabsorption. This can cause exactly the kind of cramping and spasms you're seeing, as undigested fats can irritate the sensitive gut lining. It is highly plausible that her reactions to dairy and eggs are linked to their higher fat content rather than the proteins, especially since she tolerates lean chicken breast. The great news is that for many, this does improve with time. As her gut continues to heal on a strict gluten-free diet, her ability to produce the necessary enzymes and bile to break down fats should gradually return, allowing her to slowly tolerate a wider variety of foods. It's a slow process of healing, but your careful approach of focusing on low-fat, nutrient-dense foods like seeds and avocado is providing her system the best possible environment to recover. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: Thank you for sharing your story—it's a valuable insight for other parents navigating similar challenges.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.
