Oats

I am very new to the Celiac community so recently I have been doing a great deal of research on how exactly to lead a gluten free life. As I mentioned in a previous thread I am a freshman in college and I have very little freedom in what I can eat. I've been reading the various studies on oats and I was curious what others past experiance has been with oats. This weekend I decided to test my luck because on weekends our cafeteria here is only open from 11AM-1:30PM and 4:30-6:00, which is not enough to suffice for a whole day. While looking through my roommate's various snacks to see if there was anything I could eat I noticed that the only ingredient in one of my favorite cereals that set off a warning signal was oat flour. So I decided to try some, I had about 2 cups worth yesterday and haven't noticed any significant reactions. I was just curious if anyone else has toyed around with oats in their regular diets before and how everything worked out.

Hi Rufus:

I have read that there is now some thought that we may be able to eat gluten. Once I read that I decided to try it. I got very ill so I don't think I am likely to repeat that experience. I think it has something to do with where they are produced. Does anybody know about this?

I believe there may be some people whose bodies are able to tolerate it, but mine didn't.

I forgot to say welcome to the board. My manners are really lacking lately! :D

There has been research done that says SOME celiacs may be able to tolerate oats BUT all of the US oats are contaminated with wheat. I strongly oppose them due to contamination.

Welcome to the board! :D

Ditto and Ditto. :-) Being "Welcome to the board!" and "Oats are contaminated about CODEX levels in the US, and a small percentage of celiacs may react to the protein itself, so I 'just say no to oats'".

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
