I was wondering if there are any pamphlets or educational materials that people know of from reputable sources (ie not blog posts as those can be seen as opinion and not fact not that a lot of them aren't wonderful) about the dangers of cross contamination when cooking. I'm trying to educate my therapist on how careful I have to be as she doesn't understand the limits it puts on my ability to eat what other people make due to the risk of cross contamination. Thanks.

The University of Chicago Celiac Center's materials are great. They have several PDFs explaining different issues associated with the gluten free diet and celiac disease. I actually suggested to them that they do one specifically on cross contamination a while back, but I'm not sure if they have yet or not. Here's a link to the existing materials: Open Original Shared Link and these are specifically for medical professionals: Open Original Shared Link

Thank you for this!  I'm struggling with well-meaning friends and family members that insist they can fix gluten-free meals that are safe even though they have been made in a gluten-containing kitchen.  I really want to tell them, if someone placed a plate of food in front of you and told you there was a 50% chance of you getting food poisoning if you ate it, would you eat it?  But I don't think they'd understand.

You're welcome. I feel like those information fact sheets give most all of the information a celiac would need, with the exception of one specifically addressing the risks of CC!! I've searched far and wide for one, but haven't found it yet! I'll let you guys know if I do!

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
