They used to have the information on their webpage under q&a's . HOWEVER, it is not there anymore........that's odd. Hummmmmmmmmm

Here is what the q &a section used to say about gluten-free cereals from malt o meal, however since they have removed it from the information, you have to wonder about the gluten-free status now, or if it is just a "cover our butt" type of thing.

Ok........Here is the story that I recieved from Malt-O-Meal company this morning:

They are going to be making some of the previously gluten-free cereals NOT gluten-free now, beginning late this comming summer. This is because the FDA has not set regulations for gluten, and they do not test at their facility, so they are adding the gluten to basically cover their butt!! GRRRRRRRR The cereals were already made on non dedicated lines that were washed between batches. They never tested for gluten content on batches.

The fruity dyno bites will be the cereal that is NOT changing and they are made on a dedicated line accoring to the customer service rep (BTW she was SOOOO nice).

SOOOOOOO what it all boils down to IS:

Until late summer (she said watch for label changes) the following cereals remain on their gluten free list:

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
