Yes they are, as is berry pebbles. Newer Trix cereal is also gluten free. Make sure the food starch is corn. Older boxes of Trix are not gluten-free. Dora's stars cereal, Disney's Little Einsteins, and Mickey Mouse (Clubhouse?) are also gluten-free.

Do you know if energy drinks are gluten free. I know they are horrible for you, but sometimes i need a little quivk pick me up. THANKS!

I have no idea. :blink: You should probably contact the companies directly because they have so much protein and fillers in them.

Fruity, Berry, and Cocoa Peebles are indeed gluten free. Cocoa Krispies are NOT. I'm not sure if you were just inquiring about Peebles, but there is also a cereal called Cocoa Krispies. Just wanted to make sure you didn't confuse the two.

BTW, Cocoa Peebles make an awesome substitute for rice krispie treats

Red Bull and Vault energy drinks are gluten free. I would assume most others are also since they are mostly caffeine and sugar, but I'd check with the manufacturers to be safe.

Corn Flakes are Gluten Free also. I found that out from my dietiticien. I was so happy.

OOPPS. I thought you wrote cocoa and fruity pebbles. :rolleyes: Sorry. The rice crispy type cereals are not gluten-free, but the pebbles cereals are.

Can you please let me know which brand of Corn Flakes? I think I read that Kelloggs contains Malt Flavoring. Thanks! I love cereal and have really been missing it!

Hope you don't mean Kellogg's Corn Flakes, because they are definitely NOT gluten-free (they contain malt, which is from barley, which is gluten). Most dieticians know very little about gluten, unfortunately...

I thought the kellogs corn flakes were glutten free as well...i eat a bowl every morning...thats why i feel bad!!! How frusterating! I have alot of learning to do.

I think most of the general cereals have malt in them. In the health food section there are some good gluten-free cereals.

One of the first things that confused me when I went gluten free was Corn flakes....they seem so simple who would have ever thought they would contain malt? Same with Rice Krispies.

I found Heallth Valley corn "chex" at Fred Meyer. I hope to make a version of gluten-free "chex mix." ;)

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
