After the recent Cheerios recall by General Mills, I am nervous about which supposedly 'Gluten Free' cereals are actually safe to eat! I am a newly diagnosed Celiac and have been having trouble finding which brands are best at avoiding cross contamination to keep me from getting sick. 

Any suggestions???

Cheerios is its own brand of crazy!  :o Don't let it scare you away from cereals that are done right!

There are many safe gluten-free cereals - Chex ( except the wheat one), Speical K gluten-free, enviro kid, Van's, etc.

I don't eat grains; but my husband loves Erewhon cereals.  They provide a great base for adding fresh fruit, nuts, and your favorite milk (dairy/almond/soy).  The Erewhon cereals are CERTIFIED GLUTEN FREE!

There are many certified gluten free cereals that can be found in health food stores.  But no matter where we travel in the US, we can always rely on Chex corn or rice cereals found in any grocery store.   Hubby doctors them up with dried or fresh fruits and nuts.

Well try to consume more Gluten Free Steel Cut Oats ( Those are Hot Cereals) they are really good and healthy with lots of healthy calories in it. I don't know where you are coming from but i think they are all over the globe. Find them in large markets under the name of Arrowhead Mills

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Constantly! I don't want everything to cost as much as a KIND bar, as great as they are.  Happy most of the info is available to us to make smart decisions for our health, just need to do a little more research.

      50 YO Male Recently Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By ekelsay · Posted

      Today, I received the results of my Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Ab, IgA test. I am not sure how to interpret the results. I have left a message for the doctor that requested the test but have not heard back. The results stated that the normal range is from 0.00 - 4.99 FLU. My results came back at 92.08. Is this concerning? This seems extremely high for someone who has reached the age of 50 before finding out he has celiac disease.  The reason that I was administered the test in the first place is due to bloating issues that started about a year ago. I met with a Gastroenterologist and after a short question and answer session she wanted to test me for celiac disease and a bacteria test via the H. Pylori Breath Test. She seemed more concerned with the fact that I am a healthy male suffering from Anemia. Is it possible the anemia could be a result of celiac disease? I have been on an iron supplement for the better part of 5 years.

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.
