PerkyO's are the best 'cheerios' alternative out there in my opinion. There's original, apple cinnamon and frosted.. They do have some corn starch in them so they're not totally corn-free. My son loves them and he's very picky. We ended up ordering them online (case at a time) because the stores around here were not stocking them regularly.

We have a Cheerios fiend in our house as well. So far my kid has not liked any of the alternative but we too will Perky Os. Lets keep each other posted if we find one that works. Thank you. Dina Tarah, MFT

I have found that when doing 'alternatives' to gluten favorites, it's necessary to have a period of time of abstinence before introducing the alternative. My son was a cheetos fiend and I tried to give him Tings instead. He wouldn't touch them. A few months go by and I reintroduce them and he east them just fine. Let's just say he ate a lot of potatoe chips during the first few months of going off gluten. I like to think that maybe it just takes time to cleanse the palate

Hello, we have found the best way to eliminate a food (such as cheerios or

potato chips) is to keep the empty package around for a few days. When our son

would ask for such things, we would then show him the empty container. Instead

of substituting typical items for GF/CF, have you looked at SCD?

Vegetables/fruits? Huge on our side. GF/CF still contain (sometimes more)

sugar.

Kimmy - if you are going gluten free it not just to eat healthy- it's normally to remove a food source causing leaky gut. That' s why people also remove dairy b/c they chemical protein chains are very similar to gluten. It's not about being allergic to wheat or dairy either, it's about lacking the necessary enzymes to break down the proteins. For some people, the digestive enzymes help but are not always a substitute for removing the foods especially during the first few years while the gut heals. Some people do actually have an allergy to these foods, too. You Won't see results until all gluten is removed - even cheating once in a while will set most kids back until the gut heals. My son has been GF for 12 years and can now have a gluten infraction once in a great while as long as we use the enzymes. I recommend TriEnza by Houston Enzymes- it covers enzymes to digest carbs, gluten, phenols, and more. When trying new GF foods, don't expect them to taste normal. There will be an adjustment period and after a few months, the food will taste better (at least our experience). There are several GF cherrie-o's to try. Wish you all the best.

Hi, they have several gluten free cereals

at Whole Foods Market, they have the Cereals by Glutino, and The brand Gorilla

Munch, with several different kinds, they are quite tasty and very easy to use

when on a gluten free diet.. I hope this helps and good luck, you can do it..

My son didn't improve until after we removed all forms of MSG and sources of

soy. There actually weren't many cereals left. Glutino has " natural flavors "

and Enviro-kids cereals may contain traces of soy. He loved the Koala Krispies,

but improved so much when we stopped all those cereals. He does okay with the

Arrowhead Mills ones, Maple Buckwheat flakes and their sweet rice flakes.

I'm not saying anyone has to do what I did, but if your child doesn't improve,

you may want to give it a try. I was very skeptical because we went 8 months

with no results from GFCF before I decided to try avoiding more foods...then it

worked.

Can you tell me other things you feed your son so he gets his fats and proteins on this diet? Also, what cereals and where do you get them? Gluten free oatmeal? Any other tricks so he gets calcium?

For fats and proteins, he eats nitrate free-MSG free bacon and ham, organic or

hormone/antibiotic free hamburger, chicken, wild Alaskan salmon, Halibut;

avocadoes, macademia nuts, I make my own salad dressings and we use: olive oil,

grapeseed oil, and coconut oil often. Use coconut oil on hot cereals and on

veggies like butter. He eats almost all fruits/veggies (except grapes/plums).

He eats gluten free oatmeal (Bob's Red Mill has two types, Irish and regular),

whole buckwheat (cooked as hot cereal), Erwehorn (I think) Crisp Rice, Arrowhead

Mills Maple Buckwheat Flakes, puffed rice, puffed millet, sometimes GFCF organic

corn flakes. I use potato flour, rice flour and sorghum flour to make pancakes,

biscuits, and cookies.

Vegetables contain calcium, he also eats organic eggs (duck and chicken). The

diet seems real expensive but it's not really when you remember how much stuff

you are not buying that you usually would. My kids eat a lot of berries and

nuts this time of year. I fix a colorful vegetable plate and they love that.

We get about 1/2 our groceries at Costco and the rest at a local market.

Costco has:

Organic Hamburger

Organic Chicken

Organic Frozen vegetables (corn, peas, beans)

Big bags of: Grapefruit, potatoes, etc. fruits and veggies you like

Pesticide free colored bell pepper

Hothouse/Greenhouse tomatoes

Maple Syrup

I try to buy locally too, at street stands and farmer's markets.

There is enough calcium in vegetables and eggs to be sufficient. I do give a

Cal-Mag-Vit D supp. occassionally in smoothies.

Hi there,

I was so excited yesterday to find out that Costco started to carry organic frozen broccoli (this veggie is suppose to help with detox).

They also carry organic frozen berries.

I don't think potatoes are organic, but the carrots are organic.

They carry organic potato chips. organic corn chip,organic soy milk, organic hot oatmeal if you or your family can have any of this food.

Plus eco-friendly laundry detergent, dish washer and hand soaps with great prices and they work great.

Just in a last year their list of organic stuff got much longer.

I hope it helps,

Natasha.

Hi ,

No, most of the fresh fruits are not organic at costco and neither are the fresh

vegetables. If something is not organic, look at the skin on it - do you peel

it off? (banana, orange, grapefruit) or could pesticide be sprayed right on what

you are eating? (strawberries, plums, apples) Does it grow under ground?

(potato, carrot) You can see where I am going. The potatoes I have gotten at

Costco aren't all that great, but I peel the skin and they work. I avoid things

that may have pesticide sprayed right on them except for blueberries, I wash

these well, and make sure they taste good. I would never get enough organic

blueberries for the price I would pay, we use them a lot.

Another note, apples are never very good off-season. If at all possible, it is

best to wait until they are in season and organic will be cheaper or you can buy

local (sometimes I choose local over organic because the organic come from other

countries and you have to question what they were exposed to in travel.)

I know, lots of things to consider, I'm a bit over the top with food LOL.

Oops forgot to answer your fish question. I buy fish at Costco too, and at our

local market. You have to be careful with Costco fish though because it may not

be fresh. I will never buy Atlantic Salmon (because they add color) and wild

Alaskan salmon is probably much " cleaner " . I look at the flesh and it needs to

look firm, not mushy. Same with Halibut, try to get it when they first put it

out. If it smells, or tastes yucky bring it back! They will give you a full

refund, they're great about that!

We took all processed foods away for about 2 years. It paid off, we can have

some cereals now for a holiday or sleepover with friends. A couple times a

month we buy a box of br rice cereal or millet puffs.

If your child isn't improving on gfcfsf go to the next level. SCD or BED type

diets. We like body ecology diet. However I use some SCD concepts.

We took all grains away for a period of time. Got the kids eating 80% veggies

at every meal, cultured foods, no sugars including fruit for a period.

Once we were cleaned up and he started really improving we were able to add in

more.

Now 4 years into dietary changes our day is still filled with green smoothies

loaded with vegetables like parsely, cucumber, romaine, celery, protein powders,

cultured vegetables, young coconut kefir, ocean vegetables, digeatable clean

proteins. However he can have a gfcf pretzel for a party or a piece of gfcf

cake for a party treat.

All worth it.

I kept some gfcf processed foods for about 3 months while I taught my kids to

eat vegetables. ABA style, first this then this. The sweets got smaller and

smaller and the platefuls of vege increased each day, week, month.

If they like gfcfsf " cheerios " , use this bite by bite to teach new foods.

We can keep them in autism, continue the autism with a diet that mimicks the

standard american diet. Finding versions of pizza, nuggets, waffles, and

cereals that are gfcfsf will keep many in autism. This won't heal the gut for

many. 70% of immune function in the gut. So it's all worth it!

We do eat Lara Bars, but make our own chicken broth (due to possible MSG as

" natural flavors " in prepared brands), can't eat their dried fruits except

organic raisins because we avoid sulfites, and the rotisserie chicken is in a

plastic container and it's hot! (the chemicals in the plastic going into the

food?) But like I said, I am a little over the top (paranoid) when it comes to

food. I just threw out this brand new coffee maker I just got because I didn't

want the hot coffee touching plastic. Now we use a stainless steel percalator.

Wow , I totally agree with you. It is so true that you have to get aways

from all the processed stuff, it just won't let the gut heal. Someone told me

to cook everything at home from scratch. When I did that, things really turned

around.

I really don't think their dried apples/pears have sulfites. They are simply

dried fruit. I forgot to mention they make a gf trail mix (that is by the same

company as the almond clusters). Not sure of other ingredients, but it is a

natural foods company. The fruit/nut bars are amazing!

- if you are going gluten free it not just to eat healthy- it's normally to

remove a food source causing leaky gut. That' s why people also remove

dairy b/c they chemical protein chains are very similar to gluten. It's not

about being allergic to wheat or dairy either, it's about lacking the

necessary enzymes to break down the proteins. For some people, the

digestive enzymes help but are not always a substitute for removing the

foods especially during the first few years while the gut heals. Some

people do actually have an allergy to these foods, too. You Won't see

results until all gluten is removed - even cheating once in a while will

set most kids back until the gut heals. My son has been GF for 12 years and

can now have a gluten infraction once in a great while as long as we use

the enzymes. I recommend TriEnza by Houston

Enzymes- it covers enzymes to digest carbs, gluten, phenols, and more. When

trying new GF foods, don't expect them to taste normal. There will be an

adjustment period and after a few months, the food will taste better (at

least our experience). There are several GF cherrie-o's to try. Wish you

all the best. Heidi J

Look

out for anything with " natural flavors " it's a hidden name for

MSG. It is best just to eat whole foods.
