If you put 'chex' into the search filter you will find multiple threads showing that some people think they're fine, others can't tolerate them.

I eat Chex and Kix with no issues.

not safe for me. I get sharp intestinal pain, bloating and headaches.

I had no problems for the longest time then started having problems with the Cinnamon flavored ones. Haven't had them in about 6 mos because of that. Will be trying them again soon.

I drove down to the US to get them, bought 6 boxes, and loved every bite. Will be going again soon.

Just a thought--could it be sugar in them? They are sweetened with something that replaced the malt.

The cinnamon ones bother me too, but I think it is something to do with the flavoring because I have problems, but not as bad, with the chocolate too. I can do the plain rice and corn chex just fine though.

They replaced the malt with molasses :) Not sure if that could cause a reaction or not.

Tigercat17 Enthusiast

I get a reaction every time I try them. First I tried the Cinnamon Chex & then I just tried to Corn Chex two weeks ago & I still get the same stomach tenders & my acid reflex comes back the next day. At first I thought it was cinnamon but I'm still getting that same reaction I'm not sure what it is. I just know they bother me. :(

JBaby Enthusiast

Safe. I never get sick.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
