I made rice crispy squares (gluten-free rice cereal) for my 3 1/2 year old Emmah and I used marshmellow that said modified corn starch...IS THAT BAD? Did I give her gluten by accident. OMG.

I wouldn't have ever relised it until I was reading a tread and the one lady said to watch out for mashmellows.

Modified corn starch is fine. It's modified wheat starch that's bad.

vampella,

make sure you check out the lists of safe and forbidden ingredients on celiac.com. it should help you out!

but yes, modified corn starch is safe for celiacs!

modified corn starch is made from corn. the one you have to worry about is modified food starch (unlabled 'food starch') but that, these days, should have a "contains wheat" statement in some fashion or another on the label due to the labeling laws.

      A little about me and my celiac disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, and what you’re describing is very real—even if other people can’t see it. Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re faking anything. You deserve to be believed and supported, especially at school and at home. It may help to talk with a gastroenterologist or rheumatologist who understands autoimmune pain in teens, and to let a trusted adult help advocate for accommodations when you need them. Wanting to feel like a normal kid makes complete sense—and you’re not alone in feeling this way.

      Don't  let one bad apple spoil the bunch,. as they say. Many health care professionals are doing their jobs the best they can, so it's important to try to work with them in a respectful manner, if when they might be wrong about something.
