Gluten Free Oats


Roda

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone has problems with some brands of gluten free oats but can tolerate other brands. I am leaning on the fact that I probably can't tolerate oats and that sucks! I know some celiacs can't tolerate them, but also alot do. I figured I would be one who could. Just goes to show you never know. Would trying a different brand make any difference?

I decided to try oats for the first time in 7 1/2 months. I have been feeling great and my ttg was negative two months ago. I bought Bobs Red Mills certified gluten free oats. I made apple spice cookies. I have to admit I was a glutten and ate about 7 cookies. They tasteted soooo good. About a half and hour or so later I felt like my stomach was full. Then I started belching all evening long. I didn't have the burning sensation just sour when I would burp. My intestines were rumbling also. I took a couple of tums and went to bed. I used to eat oats before gluten free and seemed fine with them. I ate them occasionally and never had any problem with the fiber. To me this seems a little more than not being used to the fiber. For example if I eat black beans they cause me to get bloated and gassy and I know the brand is gluten free. It is just me not used to that amout of fiber in the beans. I don't get heartburn or burp with them either. There was alot of cinnamon in the recipe and it is large quanties can give me heartburn. However, I find it a little suspicious that I felt fine all day and after eating the cookies I had this problem. I don't feel too bad this morning just a little burping and rumbling in my tummy. I am probably going to try just eating a bowl of the oatmeal in another couple of days to see if the same thing happens and then I'll know for sure. Thanks

I have only tried the Bob's Red Mill Oats as you did, and I wasn't impressed, to tell you the truth. Although I can't say that I noticed any adverse reactions, I will say that I did not like the taste of the oats. Admittedly, I haven't had oats since my diagnosis, which was over ten years ago, but I don't remember oats tasting like Bob's Oats. They had a funny taste that I cannot put my finger on........the best way I can describe it, is that they taste very "earthy" at not much like oats.

I might have simply gotten a bad batch, but the taste alone, made me think that I'm not THAT desperate to have oatmeal in the morning!

Oh, man, I tried regular Quaker Oatmeal a while ago and did I ever get sick. I like the BRM oats okay, but they take a long time to cook. I decided maybe just to be oat free to be safe. I am gluten intolerant and can get away with some French fries that have been cooked with other things and low risk stuff like that if I don't do it often, so was surprised at the reaction to the oatmeal. I get neurological problems as a reaction to the oats.

However, if you like cream of wheat, then try cream of buckwheat, it is wonderful in the winter. Buckwheat is actually a berry, so no problem for us that eat gluten-free.

I get the same reaction when I eat those oats...I tried the Rolled oats and the Steel cut oats...Same reaction to both...I never used to have a problem (pre - celiac) with oats (Quaker)...I keep tryin to eat the Red Mill because I like them...but I just cant stand the misery they bring to my gut..

I have decided I am going to continue to be oat free. I had another reaction to them. I was really hoping I could eat them. Oh well! :(

      My understanding, and ex I erience is that we coeliacs are likely to suffer more extreme reactions from viruses. Eg we are more likely to be hospitalised with influenza. So, sadly, your shingles may be worse because you are coeliac. So sorry you had to go through this. My mother endured shingles multiple times. She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until she was 65. Me at 45. I've had the new long lasting vaccine. It knocked me around badly, but worth it to avoid shingles.

      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,

      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, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      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 basis.

      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.
