Our Daily Eats - gluten free granola - any problems?

I love this granola as it tastes good and has so few ingredients!  They have several different kinds but this is the only one that is labeled gluten free.  Down below (taken from their web site) it says "certified gluten-free whole grain rolled oats."  The actual package I have does say gluten free on the packaging but in the list of ingredients it says "gluten-free rolled oats" - the word certified is missing.  And while it does says "gluten-free" on the packaging nowhere does it have the little picture to show there is no gluten and the word certified is nowhere at all on the packaging.

Has anyone had a problem with this product. I believe it's a local product sold only in upstate NY so I'm not sure if a lot of you have ever tried this.  I've been in misery this last 3 days and think this may be the culprit.  I've looked in my food journal and see that the last couple of times I at this I also had a problem.

I hope you feel better soon.  

Well in my personal opinion, General Mills has to recoup their investment in their mechanical sorter!  They are probably selling their “gluten free oats” to many little independent gluten-free suppliers.  

Consider calling the company and asking if their oats were grown in dedicated fields or were mechanically/optically sorted.  

Of course, you might be one of the few celiacs who react to oats no matter what.  

Learn what the Gluten Free Watchdog has to say about this.  She advocates hard for celiacs.

Me?  I do not eat oats.  I do not feed oats to my gluten-eating kid unless they are organic.  New reports show issues with herbicides being applied to oats before harvest.  Worse yet, it affects toddlers!

I react to oats to lesser extent then wheat but it still causes me issues. I gave up even the purity protocol oats from gluten-free harvest.
I might suggest looking for a gluten free paleo granola that is grain free so you avoid chances of CC issues or oats. I can give you a few brands if you want. Hope you feel better.

      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?
