I am looking for a gluten-free version of Fruit Loops(or the like). Is there anything out there other than Fruity Pebbles?

We have had a request for that this morning...I thought someone "out here" might know!

Thanks....Dallas :D

Perky O's makes something sorta like it (but not exact so it may be a dissappointment) well, they are actually closer to Cheerio's but even so, not the same...

Open Original Shared Link

then there are Strawberry Amaranth O's... (also not exact and may be a dissapoint ment but maybe???)

Open Original Shared Link .com/Nu-World-Foods-Amara...y/dp/B0001MI874

but to answer your question more specifically, no I have not found a suitable replacement for Fruit Loops.

I don't know why that second link doesn't work... just google Amaranth O's and look for the strawberry ones...

Nini,

We tried the Glutino honey nut O's rather than the apple cinnamon ones and they were a huge disappointment. Have you ever tried this brand and if so how does it compare to Perky O's which will be my next try?

I didn't try the Glutino ones... however my daughter did and she didn't like them at all... she at least tolerates the Perky O's.

      The forms that vitamin and mineral supplements come in can be important. Bioavailability (i.e., how well they are absorbed) is often sacrificed for the sake of cost and shelf life.

      @llisa, back then when you tried magnesium and it upset your tummy, I'm guessing you were using the most common form of magnesium found on store shelves, namely, magnesium oxide. It has a reputation for having a laxative effect. It is not very well absorbed and so draws a lot of water into the colon, just like the laxative known as milk of magnesia. I'm guessing if you would switch to the "glycinate" form of magnesium you would not have this problem. Magnesium glycinate is absorbed much better. If you can't find magnesium glycinate at your local stores, you can order gluten free brands of it off of Amazon.

      I've tried magnesium before. Twice in 2 years. It really upset my stomach. And that was before this celiac disease diagnosis. (Finally, after 2 years of trying to find out what was wrong with me.) I have no idea how sensitive I am. When my stomach was upset, I'd go to my comfort foods: cream of wheat, cheese and crackers, scrambled eggs and toast...so, making myself worse by trying to feel better.  Just got results of biopsy yesterday, so today is first day of trying no gluten and reading that it can be hiding in vitamins and meds. So, I welcome ALL advice and personal experiences. No advice is too basic. I know nothing. Thank you!

      Have you considered also supplementing with magnesium and zinc? We usually recommend these two as well. D3, Calcium and Magnesium all important for bone and nerve health.
