Those things are SO adorable. I would order them in a heartbeat if I had a little one!! I still might get some of the patches to put on a tote bag or something. TOO Cute!! Thanks so much for sharing.

Very cute..the only problem I noticed is that the shirts and patches for gluten-free say no wheat rye barley, but don't mention oats! Cute idea though! Vanessa

It might be because there is some thought in the medical profession that oats may be ok after all.

I myself tried eating them and got very ill so won't be doing that again. It's the only reason I can think of that they wouldn't put oats on it.

Relatively recent studies have showed that oats are safe for celiacs (unless they have an additional problem to oats, that is) provided that the oats are not contaminated. McCanns, after dealing with a contamination problem, are said to be the most reliable gluten-free oat.

The point is, though, the structure of the oat is not problematic as is that of wheat, rye, and barley.

I still don't think I would try them again.

I know. Even if I could have oats, I feel like I am doing fine with a gluten-free, oat-free diet....why take the risk if I don't really need oats anyway?

Those are so cute! And a good conversation starter.

I guess I brought up the oat thing because if I used those patches for my son when he starts kindergarten, I don't want someone giving him oats. I realize the oats themselves do not contain gluten, but are contaminated. If you are going to be letting people know of a condition, they need all the information.

      I certainly agree with all that. However, you also mentioned cornflakes with barley malt but that would obviously not be gluten free since barley is a gluten-containing grain. And the chemicals they spray on grains would affect everyone, not just those with gluten disorders. I'm just trying to figure out what this thread has to do with the main subject this...

      Re food, I said the gluten free thing isn't necessarily about gluten itself, but chemical sprays they use on GRAINS which cause allergic throat & vocal cord issues regardless of the inhaler you're using. Your issue may not be the inhaler but eating gluten free food that still will bother you because they have been sprayed with certain chemicals. Barley...

      There could be other reasons you are reacting to the inhalers. There is no concrete evidence to believe they contain gluten. Anecdotal experiences can be misleading do not establish fact.

      Are you saying you believe there is gluten in the inhaler products? I mean you talk a lot about reacting to foods that are supposed to be gluten free but this thread is about inhalers.

There is another forum re people who are posting they have vocal cord & throat issues after they eat breads & pastas which stopped after they removed those foods from their diets. Same as me...gluten doesn't react as gastrointestinal it reacts orally. Which is why I'm saying ensure all your food isn't what you're having a reaction to.  ...& I used Cornflakes as an example because some gluten free people would assume it's gluten free but if they're allergic to barley they will have a reaction...nothing to do with their inhaler.  You're missing my points a lot & frustrating so I'm done commenting. You really need to ensure your food isn't what's causing the issue. I am checking with symbicort manufacturer to check their ingredients.  Good bye... I'm done with this.

And the chemicals they spray on grains would affect everyone, not just those with gluten disorders. I'm just trying to figure out what this thread has to do with the main subject this online community is focused on. Is the point of this thread that having a gluten disorder makes someone more susceptible to reacting adversely to inhalers? That could be but it may have nothing to do with the inhaler having gluten. It could have to do with, say, having higher systemic yeast counts because the celiac community generally suffers from gut dysbiosis. So it would be easier for celiacs using inhalers to develop thrush.

      Re food,  I said the gluten free thing isn't necessarily about gluten itself, but chemical sprays they use on GRAINS which cause allergic throat & vocal cord issues regardless of the inhaler you're using.  Your issue may not be the inhaler but eating gluten free food that still will bother you because they have been sprayed with certain chemicals. Barley & oats cause vocal and throat issues with me as well as gluten free flours. We didn't have gluten issues in the world yrs ago...the food changed somehow or they're using sprays that cause reactions in some people.  Re inhaler: Symbicort is registered as gluten free but companies can change their ingredients at any time so you may want to check with the company who makes it and get an ingredient list.  I don't believe I'm reacting to the inhaler...I believe it's a gluten free pasta I've been eating so I'm taking it out of my diet. I've used the inhaler for over 1 year and no problems up until now so I suspect it's the pasta.
