Krispies Or Beans?

My 5 year old boy who gas been gluten and dairy free since February with massive improvements in his behaviour has restarted being aggressive/tantrums/unreasonableness over the past week both at home and at school. He was back to being lovely today. The only thing that I can think of that could have changed (apart from end of term madness at school) is that he had cereal (ricekrispies and gluten/dairy free chocolate stars)in the morning on many occasions instead of his usual hot food (eggs/sausages/bacon/salmon/beans).

Does this affect any other children?

most rice crispies (like kellogs and store brands), unless specifically marked otherwise, have barley malt and are not gluten free.

I thought that Rice Krispies were gluten free. I thought that maybe we were doing something strange to his metabolism not that I was giving him gluten. Is this alone really enough to cause symptoms? As he doesn't have any gastro symptoms it is really difficult to work it all out - behaviour is so subjective.

Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes both have barley as far as i know - Kellogs does not have any gluten-free products.

Triple ditto (or whatever!) on the cereal. Rice Krispies are without a doubt not gluten free.

As always, check the ingredient list. Kellog's Rice Crispies contains barley malt - that means they are not gluten free.

Yes, getting a little bit of gluten can cause these sorts of things, depending on the person.

Yes, an overload of carbs can cause a hypoglycemic crash which can also lead to behavior issues (because you feel crappy).

So it could just be the gluten or it could be both.

The Erewhon brand is gluten free and comes plain, with berries and as a cocoa crispie. They are really good and also make good rice krispie treat bars. Open Original Shared Link free.com/index.cfm/manufacturer/Erewhon/958043-___-Crispy-Brown-Rice-Cereal-with-Berries.html

General Mills Corn Chex and Rice Chex are gluten free and clearly marked in large letters right on the front. Nice is yo don't have access to the larger markets with the specialty areas.

Yes, but just a note of caution. The Chex cereals and the Erewhon cereals are gluten free but with super sensitive people they react to them. I am one of those people :(:angry:

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
