Can You Recommend A Gluten Free Cold Cereal

I have tried eating the gluten free Rice Chex with no luck :(. I used almond milk with it. I even tried eating the cereal dry to see if it was the almond milk - same reaction - upset stomach - diarrhea. Are there any cold cereal gluten free alternatives that are easier to digest?

Thanks!

EnviroKids makes a line of cereals. They have something similar to rice krispies, something sort of like kix I think...worth checking out. They have fun animals on the box and are marketed for children but they're still yummy, just expensive.

I think Kix is also newly gluten free, but I don't know how safe they are from CC. Just a rumor I heard.

I cant tolerate boxed cold cereals so ,,

I make a porridge of rice , I eat it warm or cold

take 1/2 cup white rice (brown rice can be used just increase cooking time to 75 mins)

4 cups of water

cook for about 45 mins

stir in sweetener while still warm

can be served hot or cold , with whatever sweetener and/ or milk you prefer

I love the corn Chex, Nature's Path Mesa Sunrise, and Nature's Path Organic Whole O's. I don;t have issues with any of them.

We have multiple avoidances besides gluten and we eat lots of cold cereals. Enjoy Life Crunchy Rice or Crunchy Flax are good. There are a couple Bakery on Main granolas I like, but I like them better dry. I think Arrowhead Mills Maple Buckwheat Flakes are my favorite. I can't remember the brand (might be Barbara's?), but we buy Puffins sometimes and I get Natures Path Mesa Sunrise in big bags. We buy one of the Erewon puffed rice cereals, but I can't remember which kind without the box and we are out of that one right now. We used to buy EnviroKids Koala Crisp, which is like a chocolate rice krispie, but they are too sweet for me and my daughter started getting a stomach ache from them so we quit buying them. Her favorite is Cinnamon Chex right now and doesn't have any problems with them.

If one doesn't work, you just have to move on to another kind and try that. What is tolerated by any one of us might not be tolerated by your system. Good luck in your search!

I really like Glutino's Sensible Beginnings.

They are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility--which might make a difference for you.

I just picked up a box of Erewhon Organic Rice Twice Cereal from Sprouts yesterday. It was on sale - 2/$7.00. I can't do milk, so I eat it dry at work for breakfast. It was delicious. It is gluten free and Kosher. Excellent taste.

Are there any gluten-free cold cereals with a lot of fiber? I'm coming from the All Bran 13g of fiber per cup world, and am finding cereal one of the toughest things to replace.

I went to Whole Foods and bought some Envirokids Cereal Koala Crisp cereal - and I love it! What's nice too - the pieces are small and significantly easier to digest. I also bought a box of a brand called Erewhon strawberry crisp cereal - which I haven't tried yet - but am hoping it's as good as the Evnirokids brand.

Thanks so much for the suggestions! I seem to do better on the Envirokids Cereal than I did on Chex.

The only cold cereal my wife will eat is Fruity Pebbles. She won't eat the Chex stuff because it is to plain I guess.

Gorilla Munch is my favorite, and if I'm having a child-at-heart moment, I pick up some Fruity Pebbles. :)

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
