My protein bites snack

Hey there,

 

was diagnosed 6 years ago. Just started on these my protein bites but also have been going through some severe life stressors. Regardless, having gut issues. Could these be the culprit regarding the oat flour not being gluten free?

Based on the following I would drop them, BTW some celiacs react to oats no matter what. It also contains whey and milk powder which can cause gas and bloat. The yo-yo style labeling of gluten free, no wheat statement then the following statements makes me not trust the company in general as having any ideas about CC issues.
Want a good cookie that is gluten-free? Try something like Know foods, Bhu Foods for health ones or Simple Mills, enjoy life, or capellos

"Our Oatmeal Raisin cookies bring just the right amount of sweetness and satisfying texture for the perfect union to take place between grandma’s recipe and your tummy!

Allergens: Contains eggs, peanuts, & dairy. Product manufactured in a facility that processes wheat."

Funny that the package label does not mention wheat, but their website product description does.  Which is it?  

In any case, dedicated oats are best, provided you are not one of the celiacs who react to any kind of oats.  This topic is pretty controversial, so personally, I am waiting to see where the oat dust settles.   I have noticed an increase in gluten-free oat products.  General Mills and possibly other cereal producers invested (maybe) heavily into mechanically-sorted equipment.   Makes me think that not all mechanically-sorted oats are not just going into Cheerios.  

But I have NO proof.  Just a wild guess.  

If you do not feel better after removing oats, get to your GI.  I unfortunately, developed autoimmune gastritis, after four years of being gluten free.  I kept blaming hidden gluten, but a repeat endoscopy revealed a healed and happy small intestine.  My stomach did have damage.  ?

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks

      Thankyou because I met up with K B with well known bay area hospital once and she said she knows I don't like to take meds, I said thats incorrect, I have issues.Thats the one that said I was deemed " unruly " when she admitted I was celiac when I asked why am I going through this.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!
