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.

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      I also noticed I get debilitating migraines when I smell gluten, wheat and its not taken seriously when it affects one in every way.Im still begging to properly be heard.I also noticed tolerance level is down the drain with age and life changes. I have been told by incompetent medical that im not celiac or that sensitive. Diagnosed in 1994 by gi biopsy gluten-free ever since along with other lovely food allergies. Prayers

      trents:  Why some can tolerate european bread but not american bread.     I take 600 mcg a day.  Right in the middle of the safe range.   Groups at Risk of Iodine Inadequacy Though though the NIH does not specifically list Celiac Disease in this group, they state: "Iodide is quickly and almost completely absorbed in the stomach and duodenum. Iodate is reduced in the gastrointestinal tract and absorbed as iodide [2,5]."  That would certainly include malabsorption of Iodine due to Celiac Disease with resultant Iodine Deficiency. Vegans and people who eat few or no dairy products, seafood, and eggs People who do not use iodized salt Pregnant women People with marginal iodine status who eat foods containing goitrogens Deficiencies of iron and/or vitamin A may also be goitrogenic [51] https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Iodine-HealthProfessiona   1
