My brother and I both have Celiacs. We live in a small town where there is not a health food store. I cannot afford to order foods online. I was wondering if anyone knew of a cereal that is brand name that is gluten-free? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello; when you are posting for products you really need to say what country you are in, best to put it in your signature.

I believe that Nature Path's crispy rice and Nature Path's honey corn flakes are gluten free in both Canada and the US

Hope this helps.

For any Canadians lurking, Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles are not gluten-free in Canada.

Malt-o-meal Fruit Dynobites aregf, and if you access to Always Save brand (generic with yellow lables) their Coco Crunchies are gluten-free too. Or you can do grits.

Why do you suppose they would be gluten free in the U.S. but not Canada....why on earth would they change that aspect of the cereal and ADD an allergen such as gluten???? It makes no sense!! :angry:

When you think of it, very little about what large companies and government do that makes sense.

Let's see .. maybe it goes like this ... Americans seem to be happy with this cereal so we won't add anything to it, but we think that Canadian's need just a little taste of beer in their's, so lets add some malt flavouing. :lol::lol: I am being funny and sarcastic about this of course, but that's how it seems sometimes. <_<

Aren't there any cornflakes that are gluten-free in the US or Canada that are in the regular supermarket? :)

Thanks for your replies. I live in the US. I live in a small town and there are not any health food stores. Everything is brand name food. It really sucks, and I am really tired of this diet.

Regular corn flakes use barley malt.

You can, however, order specialy gluten-free cereals online in quantity and have it shipped to you, or talk to the grocery store about ordering it for you.

Jerry and Robin you should be able to find the Nature's path corn flakes in a super market. Perhaps go onto their website and see if you can find a store listed near you. I'm afraid I can't tell you which super markets might carry it in the US, but here Save on Foods, Extra Foods and Safeway carry it.

Also, President's Choice brand has gluten free cereal. A couple of boxes say gluten free right on it.

There are a lot more options now than in 2006 when this thread was active.  Chex makes many " flavors" that are safe and gluten-free.

I need to try them all! I tried the cinnamon sugar ones and was sad they weren't flavored on both sides, or maybe it was only half of them were flavored?... Regardless of that fact, they weren't flavorful enough for my taste. I wanted more of an old fashioned cinnamon and sugar Life cereal experience! I've gotten used to eating trail mix for breakfast, or leftovers. Just can't find a cereal I like! Anyone else find a good one?

I was always partial to Corn Pops (pre gluten free). The gluten free equivalent is Gorilla Munch which I liked alot the time I tried it.

I keep Vans cereals in my house for a friend who stays over sometimes. The whole company is gluten free unlike the lucky charms or cheerios companies, -_- honestly I would never let those in my house.  Open Original Shared Link

      Chances of being coeliac

      By trents · Posted

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?
