I am a llittle confused on the whole oatmeal topic. Is it alright to eat and if so what brand? I heard that McCanns is good but are all of their products ? I grabbed the instant Maple and brown sugar flavored. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Most oats are contaminated. There is debate whether the oats themselves are a problem or not. Wheat, barley and rye actually have slightly different proteins, and oats, yet a different one. They're just not sure if oat protein is bad for us or not. At least that's my understanding from what I've read on the topic.

I have no problems with McCann's, I use their regular instant oats.

It was Trader Joes Multigrain oatmeal that landed me at urgent care 2 weeks ago after ALMOST being back to par on rice and potatos...I am new and 8 years ago, looked into Celiac after what they called IBS and poo pooed my thoughts on possibly being Celiac. I have not touched (knowingly) any obvious oats, brans, breads, etc for the past 2 weeks and feel like every day I am coming back from the dead more and more. This is wild!! I do not hold out much hope that the 7 vials of blood they took will show anything as from what I see here it is tricky to detect..but I know that the day I ate that oatmeal, I felt as if I had been poisoned.

If it was multi-grain, what were the other grains?

Yes..true. That "contamination" word though is enough to keep me clear of any grain that swells up in water other than brown rice for right now. ;)

I highly reccomend talking to your doctor and doing research before trying oats. Then I would only eat the gluten-free oats from either the Canadaian (cream hill estate?) or Wyoming (glutenfreeoats.com) people. I eat the gluten-free oats from Wyoming and have not had a problem.

our ped gi says that uncontaminated oats are ok. he was in on a study done on oats some years back in denver.

Some celiacs react to even uncontaminated oats. The protein in oats called avenin causes reactions in people because it similar to the protein in wheat, rye, and barley. I stay away from all oats because I do not trust them. It's a big risk so I would rather stay with the definite safe stuff.

Speaking of this, there's a new option for those of us that like oats--Trader Joe's now has certified gluten free oats! I am chowing down on these for breakfast! I am happy to see McCann's is on here, as I was going to be sad that I couldn't have irish oats anymore. :(

The info on products on this thread (except your post) is 5 years old. You cannot assume it is still correct. You should check McCann's for yourself as products change over the years.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
