General Mills Neopets Cereal

I forget whose post I read on here that said the Neopets cereal was/is gluten-free. So I tried it, because lets face it any food you can get in a regular market is worth trying... and I HAD A REACTION!! I ate it for a couple weeks and I usually do not react right away, but I started having horrible stomach pains. I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had a reaction with so-called gluten-free General Mills cereals. I think I am going to steer clear of cereals that don't say gluten-free, or the Pebbles cereals- because I've never had reaction on them.

I had the neopets cereal yesterday for breakfast, with real milk even, and they didn't cause a problem at all.

I had a problem with them. Nothing really serious, stomach pains and the rash came back. That tells me it was just CC, and I did check with the company that said they will not hide gluten on the label.

I am the one who posted the original messgae about them being gluten free. I still have not had any reactions and I ate some with milk for breakfast this morning. I really like this cereal, reminds me of Captain Crunch.

Gabrielle,

If you don't mind the drive, I am in Harrisburg and I have been to the dillsburg store. They sell the Perky O's which are frosted and very good. Other than that, I haven't found much luck with gluten free cereals tasting good. If you have any good shopping spots down your way, feel free to pm me and let me know. I am always looking for something new.

Hmm... perhaps it was something else then... I am not sure, but I felt crampy!

blueeyedmanda-

I usually don't have a problem with gluten-free cereals in the taste department. I really like Arrowhead Mills maple buckwheat flakes, and the envirokids cereals. There are a couple good places to shop down here in Lancaster county... in Akron, PA there is "The Akron Nutrition Center", in Lancaster "Rhubarb Market" and in Wyomissing (one of my favorite places, but a little more pricey) "The Nutricurean". They are all pretty good places to shop. The Nutricurean carries "the Grainless baker" products- and they are so good! PM me if you have any ?.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
