4. Refined Cereals
If you have Wilson’s disease, you may want to avoid the whole grain cereals. The advantage of eating refined cereals is that you can tell what is in the food by looking at the label. Try some of your favorites such as Rice Crispies and Cheerios. You should not eat whole grains, such as bran flakes since bran contains copper and other minerals. Also, be careful to avoid granola and kasha.
As long as you can read the label and check that there is no copper on the ingredients list, it is probably safe to eat. You may also be alright eating cornmeal mush and Cream of Wheat, but be sure to check the label and avoid excessive sugar, which can create too much stimulation. Oatmeal-based cereals are also a good idea, but check that they are not combined with whole wheat.
