Corn Flakes Cereal

Hi-

Does anyone know if corn flakes cereal is gluten free? One of the ingrediaents is malt flavoring, but at the bottom of the ingredient list it clearly states that corn is used and that it contains traces of soybeans, but says nothing about wheat. I want to crush them us to use in making meatballs.

Thanks for your help.

Celiacs cannot have anything malt, Keri.

Malt comes from barley which contains gluten. You can find corn flakes without malt. I find mine at Wild Oats or health food stores.

Malt is definately out. Most of the common brands found in stores contain malt flavoring. Kellogs and such are not safe.

I buy Nature's Path. They clearly list any gluten containing ingredients. They are the makers of the envirokidz cereals also that are very yummy.

Also rice in meatballs is good.

You can use corn chips for meatballs if you can't find corn flakes, but Erewon (sp?) corn flakes are good and can be found at health food stores :)

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
