More importantly than the box stating gluten free, does anyone know if they process wheat cereals in the same facility where they process gluten free Trix? If so I would not touch it.

I personally would call the company before you eat it to make sure they have dedicated lines.

I was thinking the same thing myself. I'd love to eat mainstream cereal again (and so would my son) but would I dare eat gluten-free Trix if it's processed on the same lines as regular Trix? Am I being too rigid and unnecessarily overly cautious thinking like this?

There is no regular trix any more. They changed the formulation. If you eat fruity or cocca pebbles it is the same risk as those. My daughter and I tried the Trix today and did not get sick. We both usually react quite easily.

Even if there is no Trix with gluten anymore, though, does that plant process wheat baring cereals? If so, Trix might be produced on the same lines as cereals with wheat. Some people would not chance that.

I'm sure whomever makes Trix makes a bunch of other cereals as well.

Of course your risk is the same with Fruity Pebbles.

Unless the company uses a dedicated line...that's why I say if you're concerned you should call.

I called about the Trix (since I really did find a box with out Wheat Starch) and they say that the line is washed down everyday and that they don't mix cereal types (meaning that they dedicate 1 day to Trix only) but if you are suspicious about how well they wash down the line...that's another thing all together.

I am going to eat it for a few days and if I don't get sick I will let the girls try some.

Mine was a "gluten-free" box and I got sick. I def. think that it was from cross contamination. I am extremely sensitive to gluten. I would love to eat main stream cereal but it is to much of a risk for me to take.

Anyway my little brother was happy when I handed him the box of brand new trix that I tryed. :P

Yeah, I will stay away from it myself. I don't eat things that aren't processed in a gluten free facility. I always end up with a tummy ache. That's why I quit eating Fruity Pebbles even though they are so good! I don't trust their processing. There's just too much risk of cross contamination for me:( I do miss cereal, though.

Are you sure you seen gluten-free Trix? I just looked today at boxes dated 30-DEC-2006 and they all listed "flour" in the first few ingredients.

I saw them. It might have said corn flour (which I was told was okay) but yesterday at the store I only saw the gluten kind, I think the gluten free boxes are few and far between until the old ones are gone.

Yeah it says CORN ( whole grain corn, flour, meal)

I called the company and they said the ones that say WHEAT STARCH are not gluten free (duh :rolleyes: ) but the ones without it are.

I haven't gotten sick yet.....

OH, when I saw flour in that line I put it far way and moved on LOL. Just a Gluten induced reflex. :) Sorry, guess we have them to then since thats what all the boxes say! (yes I checked them all LOL )

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
