Moderators please put this in the right place...no time to hunt for it now. I'm now having gluten free oats several times weekly and they are soooooooo good! Have to start out slow since it's so much fiber your system may not be used to (not true in my case) but they come with an instruction card. I got mine at www.glutenfreeoats.com. I'll be making oatmeal raisin cookies this weekend and I can't wait!

I found certified gluten free rolled oats at Wild Oats last week...I was so happy because I really missed oatmeal for breakfast and have never found a cold cereal that I like well enough to eat twice. The label says that the oats are raised, harvested and transported in dedicated ground and equipment and processed in a wheat free facility. I ate it for breakfast and it was wonderful. I loved the label..it says "special foods for special people". It is packedged in a clear plastic bag, 2.75 pounds and was about $12.00.

I bought that bag of oats and had a bit of it in a meatloaf tonight. Will see what happens tomorrow (my reactions are delayed about 15 hours). I sure hope these oats are exactly what they say, gluten-free. I'm dreaming of oatmeal cookies :)

Dear ArtGirl,

My reactions are sometimes as long as 12 hours! I hope you get back to us on this! I would love some gluten-free oatmeal cookies! My mom's meatloaf recipe has oats in it! I have not had meatloaf since going gluten-free about four months or so ago!

Sincerely,

I hope that you had no reaction from the oats...I know that I kept waiting and waiting to see if something happened, finally forgot about it and realized later that they were fine. About meatloaf, I found a can of corn tortilla crumbs in my regular grocery store and they worked great for making meatloaf...I always use ground turkey, grated carrots, chopped onion and a little fresh parslely when I make it and it makes the best sandwiches when it is cold.

The gluten free oats I got are most definitely gluten free but I chose them since the owners daugter has Celiac and he started the company so she could oatmeal for breakfast like she'd done her whole life. I've also met others who love the oats from Wild Oats (we don't have here) and some from www.giftsofnature.com. I'll let you know how my cookies turn out..........I'm so excited I may not wait until tomorrow to bake them!

The gluten free oatmeal raisin cookies were to die for! I used Naturally Gluten Free cookie blend flour and for every cup of flour, you deduct one tbsp. of the cookie blend flour. I also made a few pan bars since all the cookies did not fit on the cookie sheet. They were very good for about three days and after that they were too stale for me. Also, the cookie recipe I used was from Quaker which I found on www.recipezaar.com. My hubby shared some cookies with gluten eaters and they were impressed that they were good and gluten free!

I didn't seem to have any gluten reaction to the oats in my meatloaf. I am going to try eating some oatmeal after the holidays - right now I'm having some GI issues so need for that to settle down (I don't always know what sets it off, don't think it was gluten but could have been something else!!!).

These are great! I've made apple crisp with them, adding brown sugar, gluten-free four flour blend and coconut oil (we have additional food allergies). Also made the meatloaf. I used ground flax and water instead of egg. Made a double batch. Added a can of tomato juice and a small jar of homemade chili sauce for flavor. Chopped up a couple of onions, carrots, celery ribs and a handful of spinach in the food processor then added the oatmeal and flax to that. I saw a recipe elsewhere for an oat containing meatloaf and it recommended processing the oats first. The loaves were good when fresh, but the leftovers were amazing! I froze them, then to reheat, I put them in a baking dish, covered with with ketchup and heated them through. The texture seemed to improve with the reheating.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
