Pls Recommend Snack Foods

I keep buying snack foods (i.e. potato chips, tortilla chips, cheese curls) that say "Gluten Free" on the package and then I'm reading about people being glutened by them. I've been buying Utz brand because it says gluten free on the package, but have read here that some people are really having severe reactions. Are there any tortilla chips, potato chips or cheese curls that are safe? All suggestions welcomed! And thanks. I've learned so much from visiting these forums.

I buy Mission Tortilla Chips, Pamela's cookies (I like the little ones better than the larger ones), Planters 100% Natural Harvest Jumbo cashews (roasted in sea salt, no added oils)- I can only find these at Target for some reason, raisins, Kraft marshmallows mixed with Cocoa Pebbles to make treats, cheese, M&M's, Dove Chocolate (not sure if all are gluten-free but if you call the 800 number they list them there). Of course all fruits and veggies. Stonyfield organic yogurt (of course not the ones with cereal/granola), nachos.

Anyway, these are my faves.

I'm sure there are more items, just can't think of them right now.

Wow, we can have Cocoa Pebbles? Didn't know that. Thank you for all the suggestions.

Yes you can have coco pebbles and fruity pebbles only from Post I believe. I also found out you can buy malt o meal fruity dyno bites. If you have a walmart near you I know there gummy worms say gluten free on the back and they are only 1.00. You can have Doritos Cool Ranch chips and all flavors of those Lays Stax chips that come in the can. Not the pringles though, just the lays stax. Walmarts lunch meat will say gluten free on them as well. Hmm, that is all I can think of for now sorry it isn't much. But then there really isn't much out there that says gluten free on them for sure. Hope this helps.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?

      I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice.  Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria.  It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium Citrate at the supermarket or drugstore ($3).  One or two ounces of it  in a glass of water.  Add ice and sugar if you like.  I like the Cherry or Grape best. Instead try: Cream of Rice, Cheese and Good Thins (rice crackers), scrambled eggs and gluten free toast. Do you need Calcium supplement?  Calcium from supplements can cause hypercalcemia, a condition that can lead to serious health complications.  Vitamin D increases calcium absorption.  Monitor 25)(OH)D vitamin D plasma and  parathyroid hormone (PTH).

      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. The vitamin or mineral you are targeting is always chemically combined with other elements to make them into a dispensable form (such as a powder, liquid or a pill) and to give them some chemical stability for shelf life.
