Can Someone Explain Sprouted Grains?

I have heard that sprouted grains are OK but I have doubts. What changes when a grain sprouts? It's still gluten, isn't it?

You do not want to eat sprouted gluten grains. They are not safe.

Oh thats right I remember seeing something here about that. I just needed a memory trigger. Thanks Raven.

There was a discussion about sprouting gluten free grains. I think it is to make them easier to digest. But it also changes the properties for cooking purposes too. I'm too tired to remmebr how, but I will try to find that thread. Some people that are not celiacs (just slightly gluten intolerant or doing this as a fad maybe?) claim to be able to tolerate sprouted wheat, but NO WAY would I try it. Even if you don't react you could be doing some damage.

Okay I guess I shouldn't respond when I'm tired. I was thinking about this thread on SOAKING Gluten free grains:

Not the same as sprouting I guess. Sorry.

Here are some past discussions of sprouting:

      I have had very mild rosacea on my cheeks for years. I also am celiac abd have recently been diagnosed with rosacea in one eye. I have been prescribed eye drops during the day and a gel at night.

      Although diagnosed with celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis, I was curious about the celiac genetics and had that testing done on my own. Unfortunately, the lab does not explain the results and any doctor I have asked said I would need to see someone specializing in genetics. I was hoping someone out there might help me understand. Here is what came back and although I understand the HLA DQ2 and HLA DQ8, I wasn't sure what the variants mean and why they repeat twice. Someone said it was a double marker meaning both of my parents gave me copies. I also read having this combination makes my celiac potentially much worse. HLA DQ2 - Positive | HLA DQ8 - Negative HLA...

      Understanding that normal is <15, I started off with 250+, then using the same lab it took two years to get to 11, the last test was 3. So, it jumped back up for some reason which is why I suspected gluten in my diet somewhere. I do not do dairy, eggs, oats, or soy. I am vegan and gluten free, and take numerous supplements with the help of this forum.

      I just want to post this new study here--it seems that for those who don't recover on a gluten-free diet may be in this group: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/scitranslmed.adp6812

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
