I tried some gluten free oats a couple of days ago and I had no reaction to them at all! Has anyone else taken the risk?

There are many, many, many opinions on this topic :)

I have personally done very well with them, but I don't eat them very often. My mom makes me oatmeal/chocolate bars and then I eat a lot. It is so nice to be able to have something else to add to our diet (for those of us who do well with it).

Here are two relatively recent convos on oats that might be of interest to you:

I've been adding the gluten-free oats to various dishes - no problems at all. Haven't had a bowl of oatmeal, though - don't really like oatmeal. I DO like oatmeal cookies and that will probably be next on the list.

The brand I have is from "Gifts of Nature, Inc." - bought it at Wild Oats.

Here's their statement:

1. produced by growers that understand gluten free

2. raised on clean, dedicated ground

3. harvested and transported in dedicated equipment

4. Elisa tested for purity by grower lot and batch

5. processed and packaged at Gifts of Nature's totally dedicated gluten free/wheat free facility

Hello,

i actually live around Boston, Ma and i went the the HealthyVilli meeting just last month, they are the local and possibly the biggest support group that i know of in the country. And the oats subject was talked about. They are considering Oats safe to Celiacs, however there are a few things to keep in mind.

1- Not everyone is going to agree with it.

2- You must buy it from the few companies that have no/low risk of CC (stay away from Quaker Oats or other main stream products)

3- Introduce it to your diet small amounts at a time, because it can cause gluten like symptoms b/c they are loaded with fiber. So you may get bloated all of a sudden and think you might have gotten glutened when in fact its the fiber.

4- Dont over do it (ie eating 20 oatmeal cookies in one sitting, although that would be nice :rolleyes: )

Here is one company that were selling their oats at the meeting.

ENJOY!

I also have eaten gluten-free oats without reacting (from www.glutenfreeoats.com), but only 1/4 c. I love oats and oatmeal, so I was wondering what the limit was on how much I could eat, assuming I build up gradually? I'd read that only 1/4 c. a few times a week was recommended, but I'm wondering why? If there is no CC with gluten-free oats and my body doesn't react to avenin, why do I have to limit the amount I eat?

I eat Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Oats on occasion, but if I eat them everyday they make me naceous. I'd advice starting off in a small quantity and see how you react to them.

I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac Screening

      Hi all,  Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was doing some research and questioned either or not I might have celiac disease (since I didn’t have any gastric symptoms really). My family doctor ran blood screening for celiac. And my results came back: Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA HI 66.6 U/mL Immunoglobulin IgA 1.73 g/ My doctor then diagnosed me with celiac and I have now been gluten free for 3 months. In this time I no longer get night sweats my joint pain is gone and I’m still having trouble sleeping but could very much be from anxiety. I was since referred to an endoscopy clinic to get a colonoscopy and they said I should be getting a biopsy done to confirm celiac. In this case I have to return to eating gluten for 4-6 weeks before the procedure. Just wanted some advice on this. I seem to be getting different answers from my family physician and from the GI doctor for a diagnosis.    Thanks,

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
