I have not been diagnosed with celiacs, but last October my GI doc told me to try a gluten free diet (after 20+ years of pain and other problems). I've had huge improvement since then.

Hi, I've been off gluten since last October. My blood tests were inconclusive and my biopsies negative (I've had three over the last 9 years).

Rice Chex, Corn Chex, and the cinnamon chex are all gluten free now (but not generic brands - they all have malt extract or syrup). For a slightly higher fiber cereal, Quaker's crunchy corn bran squares work. The variety gets a little limited at times. I get frustrated at all the products that contain malt syrup and malt extract!
