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.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      Talk to your doctor about switching to an antihistamine, and supplementing essential vitamins and minerals. Dietary changes (low carb/paleo) may be beneficial for you. Have you talked to a dietician or nutritionist about a nutrient dense gluten free diet? It's harder to get all the vitamins needed from a gluten free diet. Gluten containing products are...

      Severe severe mouth pain

      I’m pretty sure they do. I have been on myfortic, tacrolimus since 2021 for my liver transplant and added prednisone after kidney transplant. I’m going to try to cut back omeprazole to 20 mg a day and then after a week try to stop altogether. Thank you for your help.

      A gastroenterologist doing an endoscopy. Biopsies would be taken to be examined microscopically. Do your anti-rejection medications cause digestive problems?

      Top Celiac Disease Travel Destinations and How to Eat Gluten-Free Abroad

      I had a wonderful experience in Istanbul last Spring. Before I left home, I purchased cards written in Turkish explaining that I had celiac and explaining what I could not eat. The restaurant owners were so accommodating and caring. I stayed well the entire time we were in Istanbul.

      Talk to your doctor about switching to an antihistamine, and supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.  Dietary changes (low carb/paleo) may be beneficial for you.  Have you talked to a dietician or nutritionist about a nutrient dense gluten free diet?   It's harder to get all the vitamins needed from a gluten free diet.  Gluten containing products are required to be enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing.  Gluten free facsimile processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified.  So we have to buy our own vitamin supplements.   Glad to be of help.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38,  Are you taking a B Complex vitamin?  Vitamin D?  Thiamine in the form TTFD or Benfotiamine? I think increasing my B Complex vitamins and taking additional Thiamine and Vitamin C and zinc helps along with the Lysine.
