I thought I read on this site that Berry Berry Kix was gluten free. However, it says nothing about that on the box when I finally found it at Super Target. Anyone know?

I have not seen this product is stores for a very long time, but I believe it was reformulated so that it is no longer sweetened with barley malt.

In other words, the entire farm field to grocery store shelf process has not been scrutinized and micro-managed to insure gluten free status as is the case with Rice Chex, but the one gluten containing ingredient has been removed from Berry Berry Kix and replaced with a non-gluten ingredient.

There are several other posts here about the berry kix. I contacted General Mills about this product. I was told that the only certified gluten-free cereal is the rice chex at this time.

I did read the label & it appears okay but again CC issues mmust be considered if you are a sensitive celiac.

Several people on here have been devouring this cereal with no problems that can be felt! I did get a box & had one bowl . I think for me the dye's caused me to get a migraine.. The milk turned red from the red dye. For that reason I will not buy them again. Not because I had any gastro problems but because of the dyes......

      @Rejoicephd, I'm not a doctor, but I experienced severe thiamine deficiency. Your symptoms seem really familiar. Malabsorption is a real thing that happens with Celiac. A multivitamin is not going to prevent nor correct nutritional deficiencies. Doctors do not recognize nutritional deficiency symptoms. Gastrointestinal Beriberi is not recognized...

      What are your symptoms? What has brought you to the point where you sought celiac disease testing?

Now I’ve learned these other symptoms—that I have but attributed to other issues—could also be related to celiac disease:  fatigue joint pain canker sores numbness or tingling in hands or feet difficulty with coordination anemia headaches neutropenia I never dreamed in a million years she would consider celiac disease. It was a shock to me. It’s definitely not what I went to her for.

      @Rejoicephd, I'm not a doctor, but I experienced severe thiamine deficiency.  Your symptoms seem really familiar.  Malabsorption is a real thing that happens with Celiac.  A multivitamin is not going to prevent nor correct nutritional deficiencies.    Doctors do not recognize nutritional deficiency symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is not recognized often.  Caused by thiamine deficiency, high dose thiamine supplements or IV administration with other vitamins, minerals and glucose under doctor's care is needed.   Thiamine deficiency is found in anemia.  Thiamine deficiency in the kidneys can result in electrolyte imbalances and cloudy urine.  Thiamine deficiency can cause high blood sugar which can cause cloudy urine.  Dehydration can cause cloudy urine.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.  Discuss the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi with one of your specialists soon!  Just to rule it out.  I'm very concerned.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.   Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/#ref3 From Section 3: "In conclusion, TD limited to the gastrointestinal system may be an overlooked and underdiagnosed cause of the increasingly common gastrointestinal disorders encountered in modern medical settings. Left unattended, it may progress to wet or dry beriberi, most often observed as Wernicke encephalopathy.". . And... Refeeding Syndrome https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK564513/

      I have heard about numerous food sensitivity tests blood and the prick and how nothing is very reliable I think trial and error probably best bet.
