Pure Oats

Hello All

I've been feeling really bloated, sore stomach, IBS like symptoms over the last couple of weeks and discovered that I had confused my usual loaf of bread was replaced with one made with pure oat flour. Since my DX in 2013 I've tried pure oats every few months and have concluded that unfortunately I'm just one of those coeliacs that can't eat the pure ones.  Very upsetting as pre-diagnosis I ate them all the time and they never caused any problems.

I just wondered if there is a pure oats expert there as I can't seem to find any info on the following:

  • Can pure oats (to susceptible coeliacs) cause Iga/TTg numbers to rise?
  • Do they cause villus blunting?

Thanks!

This paper doesn’t look at IgA/TTG, but does look at biopsies and says that oats can affect villi in sensitive people.

Thank you RMJ - as my symptoms are so similar to a reaction to gluten I have suspected this for some time but this is the only place I have seen anything written about it.   I'm very grateful for your taking the time to reply.  Interestingly the store where I purchased this loaf do list oats in bold text in their ingredients list - which is what they do with other grains that can set off a reaction - so it is my fault I missed it.

      Still unsure.....

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).

      @maylynn, No, I took over the counter thiamine supplements, thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide).  My doctors were not very knowledgeable about nutrition and vitamins, and they missed my symptoms being connected to vitamin deficiencies.  I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.  My doctors just prescribed pharmaceuticals to cover the symptoms of poor health due to malabsorption of nutrients. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, physically active, emotionally stressed and work outside in hot weather.  Thiamine works in concert with the other B vitamins, so all should be supplemented together.  Vitamin D needs to be activated by thiamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system.   Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because it is not bioavailable.  The body has difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.   Do keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty Did they give you medication for the Thiamine? I have never heard of that and have never related to symptoms more. My energy is always SO low. Zero drive to get anything done or work out. I used to love being on the go and being active. I am heading to the doctor next week so I will make sure to bring this up! Thank you so much!

      @trents I have had another scope done since being diagnosed. The only thing they told me at that time was my body seems to be healing very well and to continue what I was doing. At that time, I had only been diagnosed 2 years so it may be a possibility that it was healing then but not now maybe. I think you're right that it's about time one was done! I will be bringing that up to my doctor at my apt. next week. Thank you for the suggestions with food. I have tried diary so far. Seems to not be the issue (luckily!). Will have to try the others!

      Thank you so much for the advice, Scott. I am going back to the doctors next week to get more blood work done. The only thing they recommended me to take so far has been two shots of liquid iron in the morning to keep my iron levels high. What supplements or vitamins have worked for you? I never physically feel my celiac symptoms, unless I got cross contamination which I feel has only happened a handful of times in the last four years. When I eat it feels so different than my celiac. Which makes me wonder if it is another food like you suggested. Has anyone ever had issues with meat? I feel like I can snack and snack until it is a full meal, usually including meat. Could that be an allergy or just my gut not digesting well from the celiac? These are all things I am wanting to bring up to my doctor next week but hearing from other people with the same disease beforehand makes me feel less crazy about all of my stomach issues! Thank you again! I will check out the article.
