Magic Nuudles?

Does anyone know if magic nuudles are gluten free? Tori got some for Christmas from her grandmother and I need to know if she can play with them. Their website says they're made from cornstarch, but it doesn't give any other ingredients at all. I couldn't find any contact info either.

Well, their site seems only partially functional. I did find this via Google though: Open Original Shared Link

Hope that helps.

Anybody else know anything? I'm still waiting for the company to e-mail me back and my daughter is begging to play with them.

I bet those gummi bears would work just the same, plus they're edible. Apparently they are also made from corn, and are known to be gluten-free.

Angie,

I just called the phone number listed on their website. The woman I spoke to, Kathy, checked and told me they were gluten-free. The phone number I used--1-877-938-6738.

Wow, THANKS Patti! I couldn't find a phone number on their website. I just found an e-mail address and they never e-mailed me back. Wow, I've been retarded the last few weeks. I'm so excited. Tori is going to freak when she wakes up from her nap and has a new art project to do. Thanks so much!

Aw, you're very welcome!--I hated the thought of Tori having the toy right there, and not being able to play with it. Hope she has lots of fun! :D

:) We hid it, but I hate to deprive her of the really cool stuff. It's bad enough we can't do Play-Doh without some planning. Anyone know if Floam is gluten free?

At the risk of sounding like a complete butt-insky :lol: , I remembered this thread. It is inconclusive about whether or not Floam is gluten-free, but there is a contact number listed there--

Floam doesn't work anyway. Daughter got some and it wouldn't stick to anything. At least it wasn't messy but it was a big waste of money.

I used to love Floam. I thought it was really fun. We never tried to stick it to anything though. We just played with it like Play-Doh.

I recall having some really cool stuff called Weird-Dough, or something like that. I think it had the Nickelodeon name on it. It stuck to all sorts of surfaces, but came right off easily, and wouldn't stain. It was nice and soft too. But the best part was that it didn't dry out! So unlike play-doh, you don't have to keep buying more <_<

As far as I know, silly putty should be gluten-free, but these days one never knows...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1. Genetic testing. Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      Just diagnosed today

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about i...

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.
