Beware Of The New Formula Of Kix

I was so excited to try the Kix now that they have the new formula, and they tasted so good, but I got glutened from what I believe may be cross contamination. I also double checked the ingredients to make sure it wasn't the old formula. It's been 5 days since then and I'm just now starting to feel a little bit better, but nowhere near normal. I guess I'll have to wait until if and when they decide to go through the process to make it officially gluten free like they did with Chex before I ever try them again. :(

Envirokidz has a cereal that is very similar to Kix...Has a panda on front. We buy on Amazon.

I second the EnviroKidz recommendation. They are quite tasty - especially the peanut butter variety (kind of reminds me of Reese's PB cups cereal).

I totally agree with that recommendation! The peanut butter ones are so good!! It even makes a great snake to throw in a baggie and take on the road with you!

That is too funny, not that you got glutened, but that i have been wondering what I have been eating that is making me feel this way... I had kix this morning, and was assuming that it was a cross contamination matter, and since i am not the only one who had this happen, i feel a little relieved, my friends were thinking i was crazy because they dont have gluten in them...they dont understand the cross contamination issue!

will be trying the envirokids soon!

What type of Kix are you talking about? The new Honey Kix has no gluten ingredients....but I thought regular Kix was made with oat flour.

I like Trix(yes, the one with the bunny on it) and love Honey nut Chex. My sone really like the Cocoa and Peanut Butter Bumpers, and I get them at Krogers.

I bought a box of Honey Kix last week. It tasted like cardboard :o . I like Trix, and the Chex, especially the corn & honey nut kinds.

best regards, lm

      Anyone understand genetic testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your genetic test results confirm that you carry the highest-risk markers for celiac disease, specifically the HLA-DQ2 haplotype (while being negative for HLA-DQ8). The fact that both HLA-DQA1*05 and HLA-DQB1*0201 appear twice means you inherited identical copies from each parent, making you homozygous for these genes. This double dose of the DQ2.5 haplotype is significant because it indicates an even stronger genetic predisposition to celiac disease compared to those who only inherit one copy. Research suggests that people with this homozygous pattern may have a higher likelihood of developing the disease, potentially more severe immune responses to gluten, and a stronger...

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you and your daughter are navigating celiac disease with a lot of care and dedication, and it’s wonderful that you’re prioritizing her health and growth during this critical time. Since her antibody levels and growth have plateaued, tightening up her diet by avoiding eating out (except at dedicated gluten-free places) is a smart move—even if it’s challenging socially. Many parents of celiac kids report significant growth spurts once gluten exposure is minimized, so there’s hope she’ll catch up if her levels improve. As for the future, while her growth window closing may reduce some risks, celiac is lifelong, and staying as strict as possible will likely always be best...
