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 think the brand is called bakery on main, they come in small packages and are a bit pricey (but what isn't?). it is like a granola cereal. it's sooooo yummie! comes in a few different kinds. nuts, cranberry's, dried fruit. i like to warm it up. sooooooo gooooood!!!! alos, udi's makes a DELISH gluten-free granola!!!!

some people don't do well with them, but i enjoy fruity and cocoa pebbles every once in a while.

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. :)

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors.

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that...

      Brain fog

      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...

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms. My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea. But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      By Kirita · Posted

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. 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.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.
