does everybody have it with no problem? i know that it's a kraft product, but i've heard mixed things, and i'm sure it's fine since they always put a CC warning if there is one, but just curious...same thing with planters, i heard plenty of people say they got sick, yet everybody trusts kraft and i've never really heard of problems aside from that so, just wondering what the deal is/was with all of that :)

I also have problem with Fruity Pebbles, as well as Cocoa Pebbles and Chex. I figured out that it is the mold that collects during the storage process, not gluten. Mold allergies can mimic gluten because it can involve the intestines and nervous system.

We buy fruity pebbles all the time and have never had a reaction to it. CC is possible with any product but with fruity pebbles its never been an issue with us.

I never had a problem with Fruity Pebbles or Planters. Are you possible lactose intolerant?

i've never had a problem with it, i've never had either since being gluten-free (just because i haven't, no reason at all), and was curious how people are since i know that it's the only gluten-free cereal post makes, but since it's kraft, there would be a CC advisory if there was one...and planters was just a thing that i've heard mixed things about, but yet again, it's kraft so

i tried Cocoa Pebbles a few times and always ended up running for the bathroom. no problems with Rice Chex though. haven't tried Fruity Pebbles...i'm not a fan of them anyways.

Are you aware that Post adds fiber to Cocoa Pebbles? It's listed as polydextrose. Maybe that's what bothers you.

Rice Chex has no fiber.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
