Hold the Oats for Celiac Disease?

Some Patients May Not Tolerate Oats, Study Suggests

Oct. 18, 2004 -- The on-again, off-again relationship between people with celiac disease and oats may be off again.

For years, people with the chronic immune system disorder were told to avoid oats as well as wheat, rye, and barley.

The reason for the food ban: gluten, a form of protein found in some grains. Gluten may cause damage to the lining of the small intestine in celiac disease patients, leading to malnutrition and a host of other chronic medical conditions.

Oats fell back into favor when studies suggested they didn't cause the intestinal inflammation and symptoms seen in celiac disease after all. Now, the tide may be turning again.

Researchers in Norway studied nine adults with celiac disease who had eaten oats in the past. Four participants had symptoms of abdominal bloating or diarrhea. Three of those four patients had "intestinal inflammation typical of celiac disease at the time of oats exposure," write the researchers.

For instance, one participant was a 59-year-old woman who had had success with a standard gluten-free diet, the typical treatment for celiac disease. In 2000, she started eating oats and developed bloating, abdominal pain, and iron deficiency, as well as losing a little more than 4 pounds.

Tests of her small intestine showed inflammatory reactions seen only in patients with celiac disease. The woman stopped eating oats and her condition improved, say the researchers.

The researchers took great care to make sure the oats were not contaminated by other grains known to trigger celiac disease.

Tests of the small intestine in the other eight patients showed all had evidence of inflammatory reactions within the lining of the small intestine; however, not all of the participants had symptoms of intolerance to the diet.

The researchers say the results show some, but not all, celiac disease patients may not be able to tolerate oats.

Right now, the researchers aren't sure how often the problem occurs. More research is needed, they say.

The study appears in the October issue of the journal Public Library of Science.

Reeses pieces are gluten-free also, last time I checked ENJOY!!

-Jessica

I'm more upset about the article, not the use of the low-gluten host. That is each person's personal decision. I'm just upset that the magazine has decided to chastize this lady for creating an awareness of the disease.

-Jessica

I was just curious if anyone else gets Gluten Free Living Magazine. In the new issue (I just got mine yesterday) there is an article about this issue. The title of the article is First Communion Story Sad, but Untrue. The article is on page 6.

The article is about the little girl and the mother and it goes on to pretty much condemn the mother for making a fuss about this issue. It says they are spouting off mis-information and putting out bad facts. They say that there are other alternatives, such as the low gluten host. The mother shouldn't have made such a big deal, blah blah blah!!!

I'm not really happy about the article in Gluten Free Living magazine, instead of applauding someone for trying to make a difference, they are stomping on her!!! I can't believe this!!

I hope others get this magazine and have the opportunity to read the poor article. Please let me know what you think.

-Jessica

Bush's beans has a gluten-free list. I believe everything is gluten-free except their chili magic line. You will probably want to write them and get a current list. Hope that helps.

-Jessica

There is also a great recipe for enchilada sauce in Bette Hagaman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Cooks Fast and Healthy. The recipe is SUPER easy to make and takes very little time to cook. If you don't already own the book, buy it or check it out from the library it is a GREAT book to have.

-Jessica

There have been articles out recently about people on the adkins diet (which is very similiar to ours) having increased bad breath. I'm not sure where your odor comes from, but you might want to do some searches on "low carb body odor" and see what you can come up with .

-Jessica

If I don't find another great recipe that might be my only option. I have had a few great people email me some wonderful things to try. I am still on the search. I really want something dense like a wedding cake. So please let me know if you all have something wonderful for me to try. I think I will be baking cakes until december! haha!! This is going to be fun!! I love experimenting and cooking. Thanks for the help.

-Jessica

Thanks for the recipe!! Have you tried this out yet?

-Jessica

I am searching for a white wedding cake recipe (gluten-free of course). I will be graduating in December from College and we are having a reception. What is a celebration without cake!!!! I have a good yellow cake recipe, but would really like the cake to be a white one. If you have a tried and true tasty recipe please post it for me!! I would really appreciate it and it would make my graduation day even that more special.

Thanks -Jessica

High and Low blood pressure can also cause dizzyness. You might want to have that checked.

-Jessica

Anytime I get gluten in my system I run a fever of about 99(I always run below normal any other time). I have always chalked it up to the immune response that is going on because of the gluten ingestion. White cells are being produced to fight against the gluten, so I figured that was what the fever resulted from.

-Jessica

Terri-

You might want to check on that extra sauce you added. It could have been gluten containing. I eat Amy's all the time and haven't had any trouble with the rice crust pizza. Just a thought!

-Jessica

I contacted tropical sno last summer and all of their syrups are gluten free as of that time. Hope that helps you.

-Jessica

Iron can be very harsh on your stomach to begin with. If the company says it is gluten-free, it most likely is. I would bet it is just the iron giving your problems.

Other ways to get iron are drinking some orange juice or other vitamin C filled drink along with eating a piece of iron filled meat like beef. The vitamin C helps with the absorbtion and breaking down of the iron. You might also give that a try.

Hope it helps!!

-Jessica

I'm not sure what group your college uses as their catering services. I contacted Sodhoux and they sounded like an awesome group. Possibly you can try contacting the main company they are contracted with and try to get some results that way.

When they give you food that isn't appropriate bring it to their attention and then they can learn. If you don't bring it up, they think everything is fine.

celiac3270 is right, powerade and gatorade are both gluten-free.

I hope things get easier.

-Jessica

I like the corn pastas. They seem to taste better than most of the sticky rice pasta. I tried Mrs. Leepers corn the other day , it was wonderful!! De boles also makes a few corn ones. Try them, what do you have to loose

-Jessica

Molly-

Hidden valley ranch is not gluten-free, unless they have changed their forumlation in the last year. You might want to call them and double check. I know when I contacted them they said it contained trace amounts of gluten.

Pilly Cream cheese is gluten-free

-Jessica

Only the Nacho cheese flavored Doritos(in the red bag) contain wheat flour. Hope that clears it up.

-Jessica

These things are never close to me either celiac3270. I guess we just have to throw our own vendor fair! ha Anyone know how they work? Do you contact vendors and get them to send samples or do they send a representative from their company or what?

-Jessica

It is in Oklahoma City, OK. Registrations fees haven't been announced yet. All that the information that is available is in my above posts, it came from the CSA Website. Hope that helps.
