My boyfriend just accepted a job as a professor at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I'm going to finish out my degree at Penn State next year, but I'll be able to spend much of next spring in SLO and will be moving there summer 2008 to get a job as well. What types of resources are there for celiacs in this area? Does anyone know what kind of gluten-free products can be found in local stores, who the best GIs are, where there are accomodating restaurants, etc? I'd really appreciate any information you might have.

Nicole,

I just started as a professor at Cal Poly this past August. What department will he be in? (you can pm me) I love the area and the school.

There's several health food stores that carry gluten free products and there's also a trader joes. I can send you addresses when you head out here. I don't have a GI yet (so far healthy and too busy to go to a doc). I've had mixed success in local restaurants. Some have been great; I've gotten sick at a few. Again, when the time comes, I can send addresses.

What are your plans for housing? It is pricy here. I ended up buying a very small condo in Atascadero.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
