I added this to the end of someone else's post about Chex, but I had to add it here as well. I was so excited in the store the other day when I saw the boxes, I called my Mom immediately to tell her. I am the only Celiac in the family, and no one was excited like I was. Hopefully I'll find a more excited crowd here!

A chex heads up...Rice, Corn, and Honey Nut chex are now all gluten free!!!! I am munching on a box of honey nut ones at the moment. For the honey nut chex, they took out the barley malt and replaced it with molassas and the corn chex I believe was replaced with rice malt. The front of the box now says gluten free and the back of the box has a wonderful little gluten free tidbit. It says "the irresistible flavor and hearty crunch of honey nut chex is now gluten free. Gluten free means that honey nut chex does not contain gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barely." Exciting stuff!

Not to me. About the Corn Chex that is. Haven't seen the Gluten Free box of Corn Chex yet. Have seen the Honey and Rice with Gluten Free on the front at Walmart.

Good to hear about the Corn Chex.

I am so waiting for the honey nut & corn chex to hit our area!! It is depressing that you can't have the good cereals. I'm with you, it is exciting news!!

The chocolate and strawberry chex are also gluten-free. They are just harder to find.

Fortunately good news never gets old, and we always have new people that haven't yet heard.

Is anyone else in Jersey? I keep looking in all the store I go to and the only Chex I am finding gluten free are the Rice Chex which are good but do get soggy quicker that the corn.

Honey Nut Chex actually does not contain peanuts, so you should be ok. Be aware it does contain almond ingredients however.

Still waiting on the stock at my local Publix to run out so they have to replace it with the newer products. I got tired of eating Rice Chex, so I've been eating waffles. I'm DYING for some Honey Nut ANYTHING! :lol:

Too bad for all of you, I bought them all---just kidding!! :P

Aren't the strawberry supposed to be gluten-free as well?

Thanks! I did not know this and now I do. It is nice to have a widely available brand sold at mainstream stores that I can get when I'm out of my home area and don't know where the local health food store is.

It might be old news for some, but I just found out last week. The chocolate chex are my favorite and it is fabulous to be able to find something yes, in a mainstream store, and at an affordable price. So very nice to be acknowledged and to have something easy and delicious to eat. Wow!

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

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

      Medication

      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!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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.
