Hey all! I'm a newbie to Gluten free. In a book I was reading (Gluten Free Living For Dummies) it said to take your favorite glutenated foods, and make substitutions accordingly; So .... I was wondering what are some of your favorite gluten free cereals and snacks (both naturally gluten-free & specialty)

Thanks, Everyone :)

Oooh, I maybe can help here! ;)

Do you like oatmeal? Many say that oats should also be cut out of a gluten-free diet, but you could try Bob's Red Mill Oatmeal.

Or if you want a rice substiture, I've tried Rice & Shine (with a little brown sugar......yum!) and Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal (Bob's Red Mill). Both are excellent.

Cold cereals......the only thing I can vouch for would be Rice Chex - just make sure they actually say Gluten Free on the box.

I know others will have awesome suggestions for you!

top gluten-free snack .. . corn chips and hummus! I also like to eat pecans out of the bag.

cereal - my son really missed the cereal w used to get - a generic called oats-n-more, which is one of those flakes and nuggets cereals. We recreated it by combining gluten-free corn flakes (I cant remember the name, but they say gluten-free on the front, and my supermarket had them in the natural cereal section in a box, and my hfs has them in big bags, cheap), plus enjoy life very berry crunch granola (he has some other allergies and this was the best for him) and almonds on top. I sometimes sprinkled extra sugar on top, too.

Since we have so very many food issues, its harder for us . .. hopefully other people have other good ideas.

There are several things I would eat even if I didn't have to be gluten free.

1. Granola by Bakery on Main. I love the stuff, I could eat this and often do, everyday. I order it in bulk from amazon.

2. Pretzels by Ener-G, esp. the sesame ones. I like these better that regular pretzels. They are lighter and have a nice crispness to them.

3. Pamela's chocolate cake. I make cupcakes and muffins. Love them, this is how I get my chocolate fix.

4. Mary's gone crackers. I like the original and pepper flavors the best.

5 Erewhon cereal - crispy brown rice and berries.

6. Kinnikinnick chocolate covered donuts. Now I have to admit I would probably go for the real thing here, if I could. But since i can't, I find these to be very good.

7. Food tek microwave chocolate cake and brownies. Ready in 1 minute and only have to add water. They are very good and so convenient. I keep these at home and work, and carry them with me when I travel.

My husband and son regularly eat up the above items, even though they have gluten alternatives available.

      Poo changes after 2 weeks

      By sh00148 · Posted

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.
