Your Favorite Cereals

Okay so I eat tons of Honey Nut Chex (that is the Chex I like) and I just started eating Fruity Pebbles (and I can't find Berry Berry Kix as someone else mentioned earlier). Any other gluten free cereals you like? Thank so much as I really like cereal and eat often as a meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner).

Blessings,

Leah

Our favorites (some me, some my kids) are: EnviroKidz (any), Erewhon (I like the rice + dried berries best) and Chex (rice, corn).

We only allow our son to do cereals that are labelled gluten free (no Kix here). He likes Erewhon Flakes and strawberries (don't remember the name) and Twice Rice. He also like Gorilla Munch and Leapin Leamurs.

Arrowhead Mills Maple Buckwheat Flakes

Now those sood good...I used to make the best banana bread with Banana Nut Crunch Cereal (the recipe was on the box). It had flakes and nuts and gave the bread "texture". Do you think your cereal would work? I love maple and I could add nuts to the bread. Thanks!

Pocono Cream of Buckwheat, great when glutened or on a cold morning. Bakery on Main granola's are an almost daily treat. I like all of them.

It would be an interesting experiment. The flakes are probably closer to some of the hearttier bran flakes than a corn flake and I remember all those recipes that call for using bran flakes in muffins, banana bread etc.

My 11 year old likes these and he's not a whole grain kind of guy. I keep trying to convert him though!

I'll add a vote from him for the Enjoy Life "granola". He likes it on yogurt.

Before I cut out grains, I liked the Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal with some sliced banana or raisins and just a touch of brown sugar.

I don't eat cereal much but I do like Mesa Sunrise (Nature's Path) - but I dress it up with some dried cranberries & nuts or a chopped up banana. I use low fat Silk soy milk - tastes pretty good.

I've tried Bakery on Main's granola & it is SUPER sweet - must have loads of sugar - but since I have some I sometimes put some on my cereal as well for variety.

It does have 11g of sugar per serving. That is over 2x the amount in the Buckwheat flakes and 9g more than rice chex. I didn't realize it had that much sugar in it compared to the other cereals I eat.

I like Envirokidz, all flavors. Nature's Path Crunchy Maple Sunrise. Rice and Corn Chex. Trader Joe's gluten-free granola is good too.

I will have to second the mase sunrise cornflakes. mmmm... :)

i also regularly buy rice chex, cocoa pebbles, and sometime the erewhen twice rice cereal as well. those are awesome. if you like hot cereal, bob's red mill has the bext oats in my humble opinion (if you know oats are okay for you and the family)

We love RICE TWICE from Erewhon. And it makes great rice krispie treats!

Trix is pretty good, at least I've never had a reaction. Also I do the Chex stuff, and there's a store brand of cocoa puffs type cereal thats all corn, also. I can't remember the manufacturer, but they're called cocoaroos. I also like the berry kix, though no one in my town sells them, so I pick up a bunch when I find them.

Nature's Path organic corn flakes, I add raisins or blueberries. Dee-lish

I am new to this...so maybe ya'll know this...but I was getting the Honey Nut Chex...just found CINNAMON chex!! They are delicious as well :)

I Love hot brown rice with milk, a tsp of sugar & fruit (blackberries, blueberries or strawberries). Yummmm! I ate a lot of this in the being of healing.

I'm now able to eat Erewhon Rice with Berries, Arrowmills Maple Buckwheat & Glutino Honey Nut Cereal. I add fruit to them all!

Very good! ;)

I love corn and rice chex... and any cereal that's not so sweet (can't stand fruity pebbles)... but I have to stay away from cereal because I have no willpower whatsoever when it comes to portion control. I can eat 10 times the recommended portion for a serving!!

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
