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.

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
