DH Reaction after Bobs Red Mill gluten-free Oats


Charli61

Recommended Posts

Has anyone else had a bad reaction with Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Oats?  I had only tried a little of the oats at Christmas time and thought I was okay with them.  So the other day I was craving cookies.  I made awesome cookies using these oats, and then of course since I craved them so badly I ate four of them!  So then I had a terrible night with DH type rash, mouth sores and generally feeling kinda lousy....  Finally took an antihistamine and drank a lot of water which helped greatly and the next day was better.  Today I am okay but curious, was it an isolated thing?  OR did I just think I was okay with gluten-free Oats, but in reality I am not.   Sheesh, I am so disappointed, I really wanted those darn cookies!

Some people with celiac can't tolerate even gluten free oats. Is this the first time you've had such a reaction? 

What other ingredients were in the cookies? Could you have had an a reaction to something else in the cookies??

Is it possible there was an unintentional gluten cross-contamination?

Many times a certain percentage of us celiacs with DH are also sensitive to oats.  Unfortnately, I am also sensitive to oats.  My DH also flares up when stressed.  I have avoided oats as well as wheat, barley and rye.  I can't even use Aveeno products.  I really miss oats.

Count another one with dh who can't do certified gluten-free oats. They got me big time. I had not had gluten-free oats since going gluten-free until Dec. of 2014 when I began making some bread that contained oat flour -- (BRM brand) but I don't blame BRM specifically - just gluten-free oats in general) & WHAM! I took a big hit.

It is known that many people who are sensitive to the gliadin in gluten, are also sensitive to the avenins in oats.   There may be a test for avenin sensitivity, perhaps you should take that test to make sure.

I do not tolerate oats of any kind. I was told via my gastro in Boston that there is a protein similar to the Celiac protein culprit which makes me sick.  No oats for me, gluten free or otherwise!

I am glad to see this posted. I was eating the gluten-free oats at my mom's home while visiting her and I kept feeling odd. I got my thyroid retested and saw the numbers going up again.  I got a doc to give me Armor and  thought that would work- then I was itching  all over plus my heart started racing on a low level. Got off of that and just decided like many of you all - stay off the oats.  I have stayed off of corn too, as I have just about decided to give up all grains.  Been feeling much better.

Count me in as well.  I can't tolerate certified gluten free oats either.

Same thing happened to me. I def have the symmetrical itchy rash on my arms, neck and legs. I asked my family doctor if it could be celiac or a gluten sensitivity and she was like no. But its recurring and I keep having these skin flare ups. How do I get this tested?

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
