hi, everybody, i'm trying really hard on finding "regular things" that are gluten free.

(I hate to pay double price just because there is a big "gluten free" thing on the box).

Im doing very good whit walmart products and Publix product (I send them an email to publix, and they send me a very big list of their gluten free products).,

:blink: but the thing is none of them include any cereal and thats what my son eats every morning.

so... the question is: any "regular" cereal that is gluten free (and whit no posible cross contamination?)

thx to evrebody!!

The only "regular" cereals that I've found that are gluten-free are some of the kid cereals and they are so full of junk I don't want to eat them anyway. My daughter however, likes Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles, and we get Nature's Path Mesa Sunrise and Nature's Path Corn Flakes. Envirokids cereals are also some of my daughter's faves... and since places like Publix and WalMart are starting to carry them, the price isn't that bad.

I thought I herd somthing about the fruity pebbles not being gluten free anymore? We buy the cocoa pepples though. We also get one called dora cereal that someone on here mentioned....I hope they were right and I can't find anything bad on the lable but i am new at this...they are little rice stars with cinnamon.....I wasn't that fond of them but my 5 year old daughter loves them. Other than that we do buy some of the enviro kids cereals. We bought frosted perkios and my husband and I hated them but once again our daughter loves them. It would be nice though if some of the main stream "normal" cereals would make some things gluten free. It's disapointing to find all the corn and rice based cereals are bad.

I just bought a box of Enviro Kidz Amazon frosted flakes at Meijer for $2.99. They are good as well!

The box I bought last Friday was ... but it's always a good idea to read the box every time ... after all, they changed the Cocoa Puffs recipe with no warning!

I just noticed that about Cocoa Puffs. I'd been buying them for my daughter and when I went to pick up some more, I checked the label like normal and saw WHEAT. I was so mad I could have thrown a serious tantrum right there in the store!

As for Cocoa Puffs I think they must make them in two different locations. I have went in to the same grocery store one day, and find one without wheat, and then a week later, I will go in, and see one with wheat. I don't think its "old" versus "new" as each time I check, the exp. date is moving forward, but sometimes the labels have wheat, and some show it doesn't

Kind of odd, for a product to actually be different in ingredients. I've just been afraid to buy it, as I always wonder if the ones that don't show wheat truly are gluten free.

That, and my fear of walking down the cereal aisle... I'm also afraid to go over by the bakery/bread area. But then I'm Mr. paranoid... I make my wife go check out the cereals for me...

hi, and thanks :) to evrebody, I ve just bought a couples of dora post cereal , cocoa , fruity and frosty pebbles in supertarget (hanna I hope you have one close). I checked the ingrdients and all were ok.

But you know what?, I called to the companies anyway, and while Kraft is telling us to check the labes (read as: dont call for evrey single product); I think that they relly need to compromise as I told to the kind lady who answer the phone and Write GLUTEN FREE on the labels, because maybe I know how to read labels but Im lucky and when I go to my mothers house, or brother or friends they want to buy products to feed my son that wont make him sick and they dont know how to read labels.............

anyway maybe, just maybe if we keep calling the 1000 times a day theyll realize that we are a few with the same needs, and whay to pay to 3 ladies answering the phone when thay can write it on the boxes,.....

i dont know, maybe because im new in this........

anyway, thx again!!!!

Abi

      Muscle atrophy in legs

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Polymyositis is a rare autoimmune disease that makes your immune system attack your muscles. Any autoimmune disease is associated with low vitamin D.   Even as a kid I had weak legs.  Now I feel the burn just walking to the mailbox. A case-control study found that patients with polymyositis (PM) had higher lactate levels at rest and after exercise, indicating impaired muscle oxidative efficiency. The study also found that an aerobic training program reduced lactate levels and improved muscle performance.

      Micronutrient Inadequacies in the US Population "A US national survey, NHANES 2007-2010, which surveyed 16,444 individuals four years and older, reported a high prevalence of inadequacies for multiple micronutrients (see Table 1). Specifically, 94.3% of the US population do not meet the daily requirement for vitamin D, 88.5% for vitamin E, 52.2% for magnesium, 44.1% for calcium, 43.0% for vitamin A, and 38.9% for vitamin C. For the nutrients in which a requirement has not been set, 100% of the population had intakes lower than the AI for potassium, 91.7% for choline, and 66.9% for vitamin K. The prevalence of inadequacies was low for all of the B vitamins and several minerals, including copper, iron, phosphorus, selenium, sodium, and zinc (see Table 1). Moreover, more than 97% of the population had excessive intakes of sodium, defined as daily intakes greater than the age-specific UL" My Supplements: Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg  (Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels in the body decrease steadily with age, reaching 10–20% of young adult levels by age 70.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      The paleo diet is based on the idea that the human body evolved to consume a balanced ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, and that the modern diet is out of balance. A healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 is 1:1–4:1, while the modern diet is closer to 20:1–40:1. The paleo diet aims to restore this balance.

      Best thing you can do for them! First-degree family members (parents, siblings, children), who have the same genotype as the family member with celiac disease, have up to a 40% risk of developing celiac disease. Make sure you and they get enough vitamin D and iodine in their diet.   Iodine deficiency is a significant cause of mental developmental problems in children, including implications on reproductive functions and lowering of IQ levels in school-aged children. Vitamin D deficiency is common in the United States, affecting up to 42% of the population.
