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.

      Help with genetic testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The genetic testing results you provided indicate that your child carries two copies of the HLA-DQ2.5 beta chain (DQ Beta 1 *02:01, *02:01), which is a high-risk genetic marker for celiac disease. However, the alpha chain (DQ Alpha 1 *05:01, *05) is only partially present, as HLA-DQ2.5 typically requires the alpha chain *05:01 paired with the beta chain 02:01. Since your child has two copies of the beta chain (02:01) but only one full *05:01 alpha allele (the other appears truncated as *05), this suggests they are heterozygous for HLA-DQ2.5 rather than homozygous. The term "permissive for celiac disease" means your child has genetic susceptibility but not necessarily the highest-risk genotype (homozygous DQ2.5). Since celiac disease development also depends on environmental triggers and other factors, further testing (such as antibody screening or biopsy) may be needed to confirm a diagnosis. Consulting a genetic counselor or gastroenterologist can help clarify these results and next steps.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      As my doctor said, you don't have to eat breakfast food for breakfast.  I may have a leftover piece of chicken and left over squash or eggs or I am actually more likely to skip breakfast as I do intermittent fasting.  In that case I eat lunch around 11:30 and have some guacamole and a salad with chicken or tuna.  For dinner I have pork, shrimp, chicken, lamb, or turkey with half a baked sweet potato and some broccoli, green beans, beets, carrots or cauliflower.  I do not eat any grains on the advice of my doctor.  I do not eat commercially processed products, even if they say they are gluten-free.  I make Warrior Bread every few weeks.  It has no yeast and contains almond flour and dried sweet potato.  Very tasty too.  A good book to help in this regard is No Grain, No Pain by Peter Osborne.  Thankfully, I can eat coconut and nuts and use those flours in baking and also use nut milks in cooking.  Since I am allergic to chocolate and vanilla, lemon is my go to flavor for something sweet.  My migraines totally disappeared once I went gluten and casein free.  I can occasionally eat certain high fat cheeses that are low in casein, as well as grass fed butter.  I use lots of Organic Olive and Avocado oil. The problems I thought I had with nightshades went away when I went fully organic.  And, the rest of my issues went away by avoiding the foods I tested positive to as well as avoiding all grains. I will be the first one to say that it is a very expensive way of eating, but thankfully we can afford to eat that way.  The good news is that I take no prescription meds at age 72.  At 54 before diagnosis, I was a mess and on a boatload of pharmaceuticals.

      With that many foods removed from your diet, what do you eat?  I also have histamine issues and migraines so that takes out certain trigger foods and high histamine vegetables.  Have allergies to coconut and issues with nuts so those are out.  I'm beginning to think I may have to remove dairy and some of the grains beyond wheat to get allergies under control.  Just having so many issues figuring out what to make at meal times.  What's a typical breakfast look like for you?  Thanks.

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.
