HAs anyone had an experience with McCann's Irish Oatmeal? The company web site claims it is manufactured in an oats-only factory.

Also - what about Udo's Oil 3-6-9? One of the ingredients listed is "bran oil". On their website, it says that the gluten content of bran oil is miniscule - less than what is in buckwheat, which is considered gluten-free.

First, a small portion of celiacs react to the protein, avenin, in pure oats. So some may not be able to tolerate them.

Second, I believe McCann's had some contamination issues...I believe with transporting or something. If you must eat oats get ones that are grown by themselves, shipped by themselves and in a factory by themselves.

Buckwheat has nothing to do with wheat and does not contain gluten.

Actually though, most grains have gluten in them...rice has gluten, corn has gluten, etc but it is the gluten in wheat,rye, barley, and sometimes oats that we can't tolerate...and then the offsprings of those products like kamut, spelt, etc.

If they say that there are traces of gluten in it I would stay away from it. Many companies say gluten free but then have that contamination risk to cover their butt and that is one thing but if a company does not even consider their product gluten free and then puts the gluten amount is miniscule...I would avoid that brand.

Ditto what Kaiti said on the oats.

For the oil - what kind of bran is it? corn bran? rice bran? wheat bran? oat bran? the first two would be alright, the last two would not be.

Tried Mccann's oats and so did my son. My son didn't seem to have the obvious symptoms right away. THen after eating them for two weeks he started having diarhea and not eating well. THe diarhea then lasted for a week after taking him off of them. When I was eating them. I got the bone pain back and mainly bloating and gas everyday. It was a bit strange, because my son and I both didn't seem to have our typical gluttening symptoms, bug we have left them alone. Not worth feeling bad for, but I do miss oatmeal.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
