Bottom Line
While General Mills Nut Cheerios positions itself as a healthier cereal choice, the high added sugar content and lack of gluten-free certification undermine these claims. If gluten is a concern or if you're watching sugar intake, you might want to consider cereals explicitly marketed as lower in sugar or certified gluten-free.
