Are Oats Safe To Eat?

I really miss oats in breakfast cereal! I am in Australia and we are told that the oats cannot be guaranteed gluten-free because of crops sharing the same land (rotation).

Are oats safe to eat anywhere else in the world?

I am in the US and I buy Gifts of Nature certified gluten-free oats, on-line. I have never had a problem with these and am an extremely sensitive Celiac. I do not have a problem with the oat protein or the amount of fiber in oatmeal. You could probably order them also and give them a try. There is no CC with these oats.

There are appx, 10-15% of people with celiac that do not tolerate even certified gluten free oats. I don't tolerate them or cross contamination from them in some gluten free products.

I miss oats too. Especially steel cut oats.

I have found this place online Open Original Shared Link and it seems to be the only place in Australia that sells uncontaminated oats. They can't label them "gluten free" because of the Australian labelling laws but that is essentially what they are.

I haven't tried them yet because my Coeliac disease is not under control. I want to wait until all my tests start coming back as normal before I try oats... and even then I'm not sure if it is a good idea. The only way you can know for sure that you can tolerate them is by having a biopsy after you have been eating them for a while. I might just stick to my rice porridge.

Interested to read the posts.

I have biopsy-diagnosed sprue and my gi doc said i may not be able to tolerate them. i just stay away from them, but wish I could have them!

Thanks for all the posts. I just got blood results back today and they are normal, so perhaps I could try some oats. I can't wait to go shopping! Yay!

You have made my day!!!! I'm also in Australia and I'd reconciled myself to never having oats again.

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula...

      Gluten related ??

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on. I'm not eating gluten as far as I know. However, I'm not sure of cross contamination. My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ??? if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease...

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula; I visualized and it felt real. The perception went away as soon as I removed the pressure on my knees, I deducted that the pressure of my elbows on the knees caused the sensation, so I repeated the position and the sensation of having the body of a tarantula happened each time. I have not had that experience since then because I started a gluten-free diet short after. I wonder if those people that look distorted to themselves in the mirror could have something similar but with the responsible sensory contacts located on their feet. I want to document this experience because it might help some research or others, it sounds crazy but I feel the right thing to do is to share it.
