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.

      Patiently Waiting to See Results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      You state in an earlier post that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months?

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.
