P.A.N. White Corn Meal Question


Deb79FL

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

I am a "newbie" and have a question about P.A.N. cornmeal. I have heard that it is gluten-free and have made arepas with it a few times. My question is in their labeling. I looked last night and I see it states may have traces of wheat and oats. I did notice some itching and other typical histamine effects after eating. Since I am just starting my gluten-free lifestyle and struggling with foods, I would appreciate any help the experienced members could give me.

Thanks!

Debbie

I've been gluten-free for a long time now & I use PAN with no problems... do you react to any other type of corn products? Also it does take the human body time to heal itself. Then you may find that you are a very sensitive celiac. Maybe this will get better as time goes on but it isn't always the case.. You may want to stick to more plain simple foods for awhile.

Thanks for your reply! I have not noticed any reactions to corn, but since I'm so new on this journey, anything is possible. I'll have to start journaling my foods so I can keep a more watchful eye on symptoms and/or possible reactions.

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      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/
