Oats

I am very new to the Celiac community so recently I have been doing a great deal of research on how exactly to lead a gluten free life. As I mentioned in a previous thread I am a freshman in college and I have very little freedom in what I can eat. I've been reading the various studies on oats and I was curious what others past experiance has been with oats. This weekend I decided to test my luck because on weekends our cafeteria here is only open from 11AM-1:30PM and 4:30-6:00, which is not enough to suffice for a whole day. While looking through my roommate's various snacks to see if there was anything I could eat I noticed that the only ingredient in one of my favorite cereals that set off a warning signal was oat flour. So I decided to try some, I had about 2 cups worth yesterday and haven't noticed any significant reactions. I was just curious if anyone else has toyed around with oats in their regular diets before and how everything worked out.

Hi Rufus:

I have read that there is now some thought that we may be able to eat gluten. Once I read that I decided to try it. I got very ill so I don't think I am likely to repeat that experience. I think it has something to do with where they are produced. Does anybody know about this?

I believe there may be some people whose bodies are able to tolerate it, but mine didn't.

There has been research done that says SOME celiacs may be able to tolerate oats BUT all of the US oats are contaminated with wheat. I strongly oppose them due to contamination.

Welcome to the board! :D

Ditto and Ditto. :-) Being "Welcome to the board!" and "Oats are contaminated about CODEX levels in the US, and a small percentage of celiacs may react to the protein itself, so I 'just say no to oats'".

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      NEED TO READ ALL LABELS (FRONT & BACK)

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
