Luna bars

I'm a recently diagnosed celiac (4 months)I tried luna bars, marked gluten free, and had a terrible reaction to them. Why oh why can't they put it prominently on their products that they contain oats! The individual bars have gluten-free in large letters, and oats hidden on the side somewhere. Yes, I know I need to be more careful, but their labelling needs to be better. I'm in agony . I don't react to oat protein, but no oats seem to be truly gluten free or uncontaminated. I'm in such pain and discomfort today.

I think they use gluten-free oats if they label gluten-free.  Maybe you are reacting to the oats?  IF you think you are reacting to all oats, even gluten-free ones?

I haven't had a reaction to them.  I'm extremely sensitive to gluten but have no issues with gluten-free oats.

I have used them for a long time and haven't had any reaction. I also need to be really careful not to get any dairy so these work good for me.

Good to know I'll give it a try. I've been nervous to try oats even when they say they contain gluten-free oats.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste. I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get a non-Coeliac to try this! I don't want anyone here to get glutened...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting. It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I...

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      IMO, the information contained in this article is extremely important. Several medical science articles I have run across lately indicate that researchers are just beginning to uncover connections between gut health and diseases we would never have imagined as having a link. One example is Parkinson's. But this sentence caught my eye from this article...

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      @Dorothy O. Your story is incredibly powerful, and it highlights something that still happens far too often—family members of people with celiac disease aren’t always told that they should be tested, even though first-degree relatives have up to a 1 in 10 chance of having it. It’s heartbreaking that you went so many decades without a diagnosis, especially given...

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s actually very common for doctors to order both an endoscopy with biopsies and additional imaging like a CT scan with contrast, depending on your symptoms. The endoscopy with biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease because it allows doctors to directly examine the small intestine and check for villous atrophy. A CT scan, however, doesn’t diagnose celiac disease but can help rule out other causes of abdominal pain, weight loss, anemia, or inflammation. Your doctor may be looking for complications, structural issues, or conditions that can mimic celiac symptoms. So while the CT isn’t part of routine celiac testing for everyone, it is normal if your doctor wants a more complete picture of what’s going on.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      By DebJ14 · Posted

      Say what you will about Peter Osborne, but he gave me back my life.  Back in 2007 he was not promoting grain free, but came to that conclusion a few years later.  While I did OK on gluten free, I really saw the greatest recovery when I went grain free.  I notice a huge difference if I eat a gluten free food that contains any sort of grain. I ache all over, have digestive issues and my rash comes roaring back.  I think it is probably, because grains are sprayed with Glyphosate in the drying process before being shipped.  Thanks, but I will stick to my organic, grain free diet and continue to feel well at 73.  Not missing out on nutrients as I follow a strict supplement plan based on testing.
