You might think, logically, that it isn't the best idea. I believe malabsorption is a side effect of gastric bypass, and malabsorption is a hall mark of celiac disease.

I have an uncle who has been interested in the claims that gastric bypass can cure type 2 diabetes..that some cases of Type 2 originate in the gut. My family has some Type 1 diabetes, but lots and lots of Type 2. The gut connection made me wonder about Celiac, too, but I haven't seen anything in print about the effects of GB on Celiac...

Are you trying to figure out if GB could cause Celiac, worsen it, improve it...or cure it? Or something else.

I had a gastric bypass 7 years ago and have been self diagnosed with celiac disease by diet, my local doctors are a waste of time. If you have a specific question I would love to help you.

      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/
