This is excellent news. I hope this helps you all out. As a new Celiac I know it helps me out a great deal. I walked into the commissary on Fort Bragg yesterday and realized that even with all of that food there, I could still starve to death. Sobering thought. I decided to do a massive online search for standard foods that are gluten-free since I do not have decent health food store in my area and this is the list I found.

I printd it out (it's 34 pages long) and it will be my food bible for awhile. If you guys see anything on it that you are not certain of please post it and I will follow up with the manufacturing company.

Thank you for posting this. but ONLY if i could open it. It seems that my computer won't let me open the pdf file....what am i doing wrong?

Willamina, you may not have a program capable of reading pdf files. Does your search engine offer a way to view the document as html? Google does, I think. It also loads MUCH faster as html!

And a heads-up on the list itself: OAT products are considered gluten-free, so if you choose to avoid them you will still need to read every label (not that that's not a prudent idea anyway...)!

Woo hoo! :lol: Thanks so much for the list! I'm new to this also and get soooo confused and frustrated. I can't seem to remember the no-no ingredients as well as I can specific brand names, so this will help a lot. This will save me a lot of wasted energy reading labels and then putting stuff back when I am unsure.

Bless you!

:D I am glad this is a big help. I refuse to let this thing beat me down so I am doing as much research I can to make things easier for me. Any good info I find will be posted here for everyone to read. I like to share good news! :lol:

I did notice that corn pops are on that list. Beginning Jan 1 they started putting wheat ingredients into them. There might still be a few "safe" boxes on the shelves, but you should read the label carefully before purchasing becuase if they are a new shipment they are not safe any longer.

Thank you so much for the list; it's fantastic. It's the best one I've seen and I have been looking at gluten-free lists for two years!

Okay...I don't know why I'm listed here as a "newbie" because I

contributed to the old board a hundred times! I must've done something wrong when I switched over...anyway! Corn Pops unfortunately weren't safe anyway...they were cross-contminated with the other cereals. I hated giving those up, too, because I loved them! :angry:

Hi Gillian,

How are you? I remember you from the old board, but hadn't seen you around since we switched over. Glad your back. :D

As for being a newbie, we all were. After like 10 posts you become a member, and after like 30 posts you are an advanced member. Don't worry, you'll get out of the newbie stage pretty fast.

God bless,

Mariann

There was a warning in a different area of the board that this list is not accurate. Face it there will never be a list that is 100% accurate, so just remember to always read EVERY label and if something makes you feel bad, cross it off the list, so you won't make the same mistake twice.

God bless,

Mariann :)

Hillary, Yes it is Kellogg's Corn Pops, but before you go throw out what is on your shelf, look at the manufacture date. They just started adding wheat to them in January, 2004, so if they were made before that date, they should be okay.

Corn pop I bought every box at wal mart. There no manf date but expire feb 05 and I did not see any gluten ingredient. I eat them everyday and have gained

10 lb in the 8 weeks i have been gluten-free, SO I'm thinkg they must be safe with that kind of weight gain. I think the old boxes are safe, stock up and write kellogs to protest!!!

LAWRY GRAVY package IS NOT gluten-free . it is on the list you all downloaded above.

love this forum I learn sooo much

I went to the website originally referenced and found that they have a newer list that was last updated in January 2004 (and doesn't include Corn Pops). Here's the link:

I see Pepsi on that list...does this mean that I can have my Pepsi after all? I have to have the caffiene free version, but still. I've been rather addicted to Pepsi over the years. I'd love to start drinking it again!!!

:D Thank you so much for your information on gluten-free foods. I am a new Celiac since October of 2003 and I am still having trouble with not knowing what foods I can eat. But, thanks to your information now, I am printing this book out and now I can look at it and see which ones I am able to buy without a problem. I sure do appreciate it.

Just re-reading the posts in here...what about adult cereals?

I just finished boxes of kid cereals (honey combs and alphabits) and am working on the end of a box of Corn pops. Honestly, I like these cereals, but before going gluten-free, I was eating things like Blueberry Morning from Post, or Fruit Harvest, ect, and want more cereals like that. I'm getting tired of Honey Combs and other kid type cereals. Any more grown-up type cereals that are gluten-free?

Other than corn flakes, puffed rice and Perky's Nutty Rice (sort of like grapenuts), all the other cereals I have found that are gluten-free, are sweetened, and much more like kid cereals. I think it is because adults are all supposed to try to get more fiber in their diets, so all the adult cereals have wheat and/or oats in them. I am also very frustrated with this. Some mornings I can't face another bowl of cereal!

God bless,

Mariann

Kel,

I have the same problem w/ cereals. The gluten-free ones are just too sweet. I have one called Cranberry Sunshine by Kashi and it is soooo sweet. I just bought some of Health Valley's rice crunch ums (supposed to be like chex) and haven't tried them yet, but I will let you know how sweet it is.

Thank you for the link, I will check out the list. I have been recently officially dr diagnosed (April 04), but I have been trying to be gluten-free since Jan 03.

      Is this celiac?

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms. The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines. While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten...

      Is this celiac?

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!
