Chex Cereal Commercial

Did anyone else see the gluten-free Chex commercial? It is completely about being gluten-free. Doesn't state why the little girl in the family is gluten-free but, it is implied that she has allergies of some sort.

Very cool!

I just saw it!! Took me a year, though....How very cool to see gluten-free being mentioned in a regular commercial on a network!!

The mom in the piece says how nice it is to not have to say no all the time. :D

Very cool. Definitely a step in the right direction. Open Original Shared Link anyone?

I saw it yesterday morning at the gym and was so excited and encouraged to see it. Hope there will be more to come! :)

re: Burt's Bees. Glad to see someone else is having trouble. I have been using it for awhile & suddenly my lips have started to break out. I look like a kid with major chapped lips - big red marks all around my lips. Someone else had pointed out that it may be the soy in it. I stopped using it and whatever thge problem, soy of CC, since not using it my lips have cleared up. I am avoiding Burts Bees for right now as they don't agree with me.

I read your post yesterday and right after...I saw the commercial too! My daughter commented to me! VERY COOL. My co-workers have commented as well, so the commercial must be hitting the big market now! YEAH CHEX!!

BTW: I was also excited to see recipies for gluten-free Chex mixes on their box as well! They are making me feel very loved! ♥:D

I saw it yesterday and have to say it's very mainstream . Everyone seems normal and not weird because they can't have gluten. Maybe we'll be seeing more of these type of ads as more as more companies produce gluten-free products. Yay! smile.gif

      I know gluten free proteins like eggs and yogurt but nuts especially trail mixes are tricky as they are hard to find certified gluten free trail mixes especially w/o added sugars. I agree subscription boxes are hit or miss I think I have found RXBar with simple ingredients no added sugars gluten-free might be a great protein bar.

      I sure appreciate the information. I knew there had to be gluten consumption for the blood test, but I did not realize that also applied to biopsies. Thank you so much for that nugget of knowledge. I look forward to learning more as I dive into this website and the collective knowledge, experience, and wisdom from those who have gone before and/or those who are just beginning the journey like me.

      Thank you for sharing this — it’s really important. The FDA is actively seeking public input on improving gluten and ingredient labeling, which could directly impact how people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity shop and stay safe. Clearer labeling would help reduce accidental gluten exposure and make it easier to identify hidden sources of gluten in foods. I encourage everyone here who is affected by celiac or gluten sensitivity to read the announcement and submit their own suggestions — real lived experience matters and can influence policy changes that benefit the whole community.

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.
