Dave, this is something I would like to know as I've never been able to find this out.   All I can say is about three months ago I found I could eat oats (pure, certified gluten free) again seemingly without pain and probably rather overdid it.  Then, a month later, the burning stomach and neuro symptoms (muscle twitching) started up.   There could of course be a completely different cause but until I get my blood tests back at my bi-annual visit to the gastroenterologists I won't know.

 

Sorry to hear.    As I stated earlier.    I won't eat anything with oats or soy.    I get worse rashes (DH) now when gluten and leaves a permanent mark.    They were minor, but since going gluten-free they got worse.    So I  rarely take any chances being glutened.

This looks like a good recipe.   I'd advise to stick to oats - don't use spelt - and also forget about the chocolate chips.  Your first flapjack should be unadulterated.   If you slightly undercook them or add a bit more syrup (I think in the States it's called light treacle?) they will be softer.

thanx!!  i think that corn syrup would probably work :)

Yes... I googled an exact US alternative to golden syrup and several sites says there isn't one!  However, I gather you can buy it in certain stores in the US.  The brand you need for an authentic British flapjack is Lyles Golden Syrup.   

Sorry... going slightly off piste with this Oats thread!

This is very interesting.  I didn't know oats and soya could aggravate DH.

This is my favorite brand of golden syrup.  Have enjoyed it for years without problems.

I'd really like to try this.   I shall look out for it.   

However, I wonder if it would taste like or even "act" like Lyles as the only ingredient in Lyles is partially inverted refiners syrup which is made from either cane or beet sugar, and there is nothing else in it.  I guess the message for flapjack purists would be to track down Lyles first, make a batch, then try the same with Golden Eagle.   Mmmm... a nice excuse to bake tonnes of flapjack!

this week, i tried the nuts dot com brand of gluten-free organic rolled oats with success  :)  the texture/flavor was much better than the instant brand (natures path) that i've been able to digest.  the taste is 'plain', too, lolz.  i jujjed it up with some craisins and mesquite maple walnuts (also from my favorite nut company)  

off to find golden syrup!!  our grocery store actually has a british section, so i'm gonna start there  :D

      Muscle Twitching

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, I'd have been here sooner, but I got tangled up in yarn... Restless leg syndrome (RLS) I've had. It's often associated with iron deficiency and B12 deficiency, but can also show up with any deficiencies in Vitamin C, copper, Vitamin D, and Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and magnesium.  B12, Thiamine, and Pyridoxine will also help with peripheral neuropathy, that burning sensation.   (See... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9804944/ ) Long Covid can be the result of nutritional deficiencies, as well.  Zinc, Selenium, Vitamin D, B12, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine, Niacin, and Choline.  (See... https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10015545/  and https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36587225/ ) I agree with @Wheatwacked to get Vitamin D level higher, 80 ng/ml.  Taking high doses of Vitamin D to correct a deficiency has been found to be beneficial.  I took Vitamin D3 supplements throughout the day when I had a severe deficiency.  It got my level up quickly and I started feeling much better.   (See... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28167237/ , https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4824637/) Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin.  Fats can be difficult to digest and absorb, so most of the newly diagnosed can be low in the four fat soluble vitamins (A,D,E,K).  A deficiency in Vitamin A can cause dry eyes.  Omega Threes and Evening Primrose Oil help with dry eyes, too.  (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10363387/) Blood tests are not accurate measurements of vitamin levels.  Blood tests will reflect any supplements being taken.  Blood tests do not measure how much of a vitamin is stored inside cells.  Supplementing with all eight essential B vitamins for several months will boost your ability to absorb the needed nutrients. A deficiency in Cobalamine, B12, can be aggravated by anesthesia.  Cobalt in Cobalamine binds irrevocably, irreversibly with the Nitrogen in anesthesia, rendering B12 useless.  Supplementing with B12 after exposure to anesthesia is beneficial.  (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8250714/) Pyridoxine B6 and Riboflavin B2 as well as B12 are needed to lower histamine levels (produced during the inflammation process that occurs in Celiac Disease). This can help relieve the sinus pressure.  Riboflavin B2 and Thiamine B1 are helpful with headaches.   We need more Thiamine when we are emotionally stressed, physically ill, and physically active.  Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine, has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Thiamine is helpful in relieving anxiety.   (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/  , https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/ ) Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals.  It is rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  Malabsorption in celiac disease affects all the nutrients we need.  Some vitamins just run out sooner than others because they can't be stored or we have a metabolic need for more.  (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10106602/ ) Hope this helps!

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Allergy Meds

      By John.B · Posted

      Hello, Target recently changed their branding on the Up & Up Loratadine and no long have it labeled gluten free. I've not been able to find any meds labeled gluten free for allergies. Some lists showed them but the the packaging isn't labeled.  Wondering if anyone knows of or has a list that would be safe for Celiac kiddos.
