Anyone Get Sore Mouth After Eating Oats?

I am gluten intolerant not coeliac. The other day I thought I would try oats for the first time in ages. So I had several muesli bars made with about 80% oats. I then developed sore inflammed and bleeding gums which I used to have before going off gluten. Also had digestive systems but hubby did too so maybe that was a tummy bug. Have stopped eating oats and am now back to normal.

Just wondering if anyone else finds they can't take oats? I can generally take small doses of wheat like in soy sauce so didn't expect to react so much.

Well if the oats were not certified gluten free then that's the first issue and likely the cause of your problems. Also, some celiacs just can't tolerate oats at all so that may also be the issue. Hope that helps.

Ditto on what she said. I am one that cannot even tolerate certified gluten free oats. I get horrible heartburn, bloating, severe abdomen pain and I even broke out in a very painful blistering rash on my back side! ohmy.gif That was enough for me to realize they did not agree with me.

Thanks

However I really doubt it is a cross contamination issue for me. I regularly have soy sauce with wheat in it and have no problems. I am wary of cutting out ALL gluten as have been advised that the body can become hyper sensitive to it if that is done and life is so much easier when you can tolerate a small amount!

The trick for me is working out just what that amount is and just how much gluten there really is in different foodstuffs. Had hoped I would be ok with a large quantity of oats given their different compounds but it doesn't seem that way.

Just reread your posts again! So it's not always a case of cross-contamination. That is interesting. Would be interesting to know how many people who have problems with gluten also have problems with oats.

There are quite a few of us here that can not tolerate the certified gluten free oats.

      Coeliac and Thyroid?

      By Peace lily · Posted

      Yes I have thyroid and have had it for over 30 years and just got diagnosed for cealiac last march.I have been complaining all the years about stomach pain weight lost hair falling out they kept blaming on the thyroid and I am over 70 years old. but what I’ve been reading thyroid,diabetes,should take a closer look,I think autoimmune plays a part.All I know is that I cook strictly gluten-free and also found if restaurants don’t have a designated gluten-free kitchen not going there. Cross contamination is a big thing .

      Taken Seriously

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Celiac Disease is not taken seriously and I want that to change. It affects one in so many ways and not being properly cared for is frustrating and inhumane. On our worst days the last thing we are thinking about is going to the the hospital.Im 54 years old and went through the celiac ringer with incompetent doctors not understanding the disease and gaslighting me when not feeling well.Ive learned so much with the celiac community and had to school my new gi whose actually listening and understanding, now, this year 2025 when i was half told in 1994 by colonoscopy and endoscopy..Pregancy doesn't affect the public but it's a reportable condition. I want to make celiac disease a reportable disease to protect the patients from being medically gaslight as I was.I want awareness, I want to not have another go through what Ive been through. In order for celiac disease to be taken seriously, I truly think it needs to be reportable disease to protect the patients. I did email Adam Gray and also my local representative.

      Aveeno products

      I use Aveeno for decades and I am dealing with skin issues and didn't think anything of Aveeno being a problem. Is Aveeno ok?I also use Yarrow pom in it which I notice helps.

      Yes, I use Aveeno Moisturizing Body Lotion with prebiotic oat, unscented. I really only use it on my hands and not every day. Haven't noticed any problems. I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
