    Celiac.com 01/22/2022 - All by themselves oats are a naturally gluten-free food. However, commercial oats are often contaminated with wheat, barley or rye. It's important for people with celiac disease to make sure oat products are gluten-free. For celiacs, the best way is to choose trusted oat products that are either certified gluten-free, labeled gluten-free, or known to be gluten-free and safe. This list does not include granola, as we will cover gluten-free granola brands in another article.

    However, here's a list of gluten-free cereals that includes granola.

    Be cautious and careful. Certified gluten free oats made me violently ill! I am now completely grain free.

    I used Quaker's gluten free oats and sat on the toilet for three hours. I’m coeliac, but packaging says GLUTEN FREE. I don’t think so sadly but I really liked them, they didn’t like me….

    Around 9% of celiacs also have an avenin (oat protein) intolerance that is considered to be separate from celiac disease, it sounds like you may be in this group.

    Hi,

    Are Rice Chex TRULY Gluten Free ?

    Very paranoid after my last experience with Gluten. I would like to be sure.

    This is time sensitive information - so I appreciate any assistance.

     

    Thank you.

    Yes, if they are labelled "gluten-free" they should really be gluten-free.

    The Nature's Path Organic Gluten Free Whole O's Cereal does NOT contain oats, according to a picture of the box on the Nature's Path website (Open Original Shared Link). It is, instead, a "blend of whole grain rice & corn."
