Told to avoid Gluten free oats - 3 year old recently diagnosed

Dave, this is something I would like to know as I've never been able to find this out.   All I can say is about three months ago I found I could eat oats (pure, certified gluten free) again seemingly without pain and probably rather overdid it.  Then, a month later, the burning stomach and neuro symptoms (muscle twitching) started up.   There could of course be a completely different cause but until I get my blood tests back at my bi-annual visit to the gastroenterologists I won't know.

 

Sorry to hear.    As I stated earlier.    I won't eat anything with oats or soy.    I get worse rashes (DH) now when gluten and leaves a permanent mark.    They were minor, but since going gluten-free they got worse.    So I  rarely take any chances being glutened.

This looks like a good recipe.   I'd advise to stick to oats - don't use spelt - and also forget about the chocolate chips.  Your first flapjack should be unadulterated.   If you slightly undercook them or add a bit more syrup (I think in the States it's called light treacle?) they will be softer.

thanx!!  i think that corn syrup would probably work :)

Yes... I googled an exact US alternative to golden syrup and several sites says there isn't one!  However, I gather you can buy it in certain stores in the US.  The brand you need for an authentic British flapjack is Lyles Golden Syrup.   

Sorry... going slightly off piste with this Oats thread!

This is very interesting.  I didn't know oats and soya could aggravate DH.

This is my favorite brand of golden syrup.  Have enjoyed it for years without problems.

I'd really like to try this.   I shall look out for it.   

However, I wonder if it would taste like or even "act" like Lyles as the only ingredient in Lyles is partially inverted refiners syrup which is made from either cane or beet sugar, and there is nothing else in it.  I guess the message for flapjack purists would be to track down Lyles first, make a batch, then try the same with Golden Eagle.   Mmmm... a nice excuse to bake tonnes of flapjack!

this week, i tried the nuts dot com brand of gluten-free organic rolled oats with success  :)  the texture/flavor was much better than the instant brand (natures path) that i've been able to digest.  the taste is 'plain', too, lolz.  i jujjed it up with some craisins and mesquite maple walnuts (also from my favorite nut company)  

off to find golden syrup!!  our grocery store actually has a british section, so i'm gonna start there  :D

      It's also a symptom of EPI.

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.
