What Dry Cereals Have You Found

Hi,

I was reading another post and I think it said Tix and dora Stars were some products that were used. This is an area that I have not found anything yet. My son loved co co puffs. He also liked fruit loops so if the trix are ok then maybe I will try them because they are simular to fruit loops.

I anyone can tell me cereals that you have already found that are gluten free I would appreciate it. My son obvesly loves the sugery sweep stuff.

Thanks

Julie

I like Nature's Path's "Mesa Sunrise" flakes -- they're amaranth and a few other gluten-free things. Not sugary in the least however -- I know that Envirokidz makes some gluten-free sugary-type things.

Dora Stars, Fruity Pebbles, as far as mainstream.

PErky O's weren't too bad.

I really want to try GLutino cereals, but haven't yet.

My kids like the Envirokids Amazon Frosted Flakes and Gorilla Munch. Although, Fruity Pebbles is their current favorite right now.

We use Cocoa Pebbles and Trix daily! Read ingredients, and watch out for Malt and oat flour. those are common.

My kids and I are major cereal eaters.

We always have:

Fruity Pebbles, Berry Pebbles

Cocoa Pebbles

Trix

Envirokids Gorilla Munch (tastes like Kix)

Dora the Explorer Cinnamon Stars and Disney's Little Einsteins cereal are also gluten-free.

I've heard that Whole Foods has a new gluten-free cereal called Cocoa Comets, that's supposed to be like Cocoa Puffs. I haven't been able to find it at my Whole Foods yet- still waiting. :D

I'm always checking new "limited time" cereals, too. GM put out a Spider Man cereal for a little while that was gluten-free.

I wish someone would put out a gluten-free version of Lucky Charms :(

while I think that getting away from cereal as the only breakfast meal is a good idea, I have it on occasion still. generally perkys, nature's path mesa sunrise, and health valley corn or rice crunch-ems. (the later mostly as a snack)

If you have a Safeway in your area, they have their own brand like Cocoa Puffs. Comes in a bag. I think it's called Cocoa Astro Stars or something like that.

Also, if you have a Wegmans, they have a Organic Strawberry Corn Flakes cereal, under their name brand. It is marked gluten free on the box and I have had it, very good. I eat it dry. :)

I used to love fruit loops too. I think that the Disney Little Einsteins cereal tastes just like fruit loops. I like them better than the fruity pebbles because they stay crunchier in milk. There's also a cereal you can find in health food stores by Health Valley i think. Called Rice Crunchems. They are pretty similar to rice chex, just without the malt flavoring.

Amanda--

Do you find this in the Nature's Marketplace or the regular cereal aisle?

Actually 3 different places, the gluten free aisle itself, the Nature's Marketplace cereal aisle, and the regular cereal aisle.

Which is nice.

It is very good. I sent them comments on it and got a very nice response back saying how they are very into Celiac Disease and are glad to be able to accomodate us.

I always feel welcomed there.

Just to tell you people, my daughter had a reaction to both the pebbles cereal and trix :( sorry

Pebbles are safe for celiacs. Trix varies depending on the formula, they had been switching back and forth a few months back.

Juliet Newbie

We eat Envirokidz Gorilla Munch, Panda Puffs, Koala Crisp (kind of like Cocoa Krispies and less sweet than Cocoa Pebbles), Amazon Flakes and other Nature's Path cereals like their version of Rice Krispies, puffed corn, etc. (Nature's Path & Envirokidz are the same company.) We also like Trader Joe's gluten free granola.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
    • knitty kitty
      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies.  IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells.   Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy.  Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope.  Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine?  Were you given a Marsh score? Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.

      I was tested for food allergies and environmental allergies about 7 months before I started taking Naltrexone, so I don't think that is the cause for me, but that's interesting!  The main thing with the celiac thing that is throwing me off is these symptoms are lifelong, but I don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Kara S! Warrior bread is a grain free bread product. Google it. There are commercial mixes available, I believe, Youtube videos and many recipes.

      @Colleen H, I have had similar reactions and symptoms like yours.  I started following the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, is very helpful in understanding what's going on in the body.   Not only do you have antibodies attacking the body, there are mast cells spreading histamine which causes inflammation.  Foods also contain histamine or act as histamine releasers.  Our bodies have difficulty clearing histamine if there's too much.  Following the low histamine AIP diet allows your body time to clear the excess histamine we're making as part of the autoimmune response, without adding in extra histamine from foods.  High histamine foods include eggs, processed foods and some citrus fruits.  The AIP diet allows meat and vegetables.  No processed meats like sausage, luncheon meats, ham, chicken nuggets, etc. No night shades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant).  No dairy.  No grains.  No rice.  No eggs.  No gluten-free processed foods like gluten free breads and cookies.  No nuts.  No expensive processed gluten-free foods.  Meat and vegetables.  Some fruit. Some fruit, like applesauce, contains high levels of fructose which can cause digestive upsets.  Fructose gets fermented by yeasts in the gastrointestinal tract.  This fermentation can cause gas, bloating and abdominal pain.   The AIP diet changes your microbiome.  Change what you eat and that changes which bacteria live in your gut.  By cutting out carbohydrates from grains and starchy veggies like potatoes, SIBO bacteria get starved out.  Fermenting yeasts get starved out, too.  Healthy bacteria repopulate the gut.   Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps regulate gut bacteria.  Low thiamine can lead to SIBO and yeast infestation.  Mast cells release histamine more easily when they are low in Thiamine.  Anxiety, depression, and irritability are early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  A form of thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Thiamine works with the seven other B vitamins.  They all need each other to function properly.   Other vitamins and minerals are needed, too.  Vitamin D helps calm and regulate the immune system. Thiamine is needed to turn Vitamin D into an active form.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Taking a B Complex and additional Benfotiamine is beneficial.  The B vitamins are water soluble, easily lost if we're not absorbing nutrients properly as with Celiac Disease.  Since blood tests for B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate, taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and magnesium Threonate, and looking for health improvements is a better way to see if you're insufficient.   I do hope you will give the low histamine AIP diet a try.  It really works.
