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.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
