gluten-free Oatmeal - Quick Cooking


debmidge

Can anyone suggest a gluten-free Oatmeal brand name? I purchased Bob's gluten-free but it's 20 mins cooking time and it's very rough (meaning coarse). We are looking for a shorting cooking time and smaller cut.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I don't eat oatmeal as a hot cereal but use it in baking and Ds and I felt the same about the Bob's that we recently bought. I've been pulsing it a few times in the food processor to break it up a bit before using it. We liked the Gifts of Nature better for texture and taste. It's whole too but a smaller more tender, sweeter grain I think. Don't know if the cooking time would be shorter.

Where would I get the Gifts of Nature brand?

I used to buy it at Wild Oats Market here but they got bought out by Whole Foods or something like that and closed and Whole Foods doesn't carry it. So, I can't buy it here but I might approach WF or one of the healthfood stores and ask them if they can get it. My local healthfood store will special order if they can get it through one of their suppliers. Otherwise I'll have to go online. They have their own website. Just a heads up, it was $12 a (big,full)bag when it was here and Bob's was something like $6 something I think. Our apple crisp came out much better with the pulsed Bob's yesterday but still can't compare with the flavor of the Gifts of Nature.

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.
