Gluten Free Oatmeal

My sister in law was not able to give my nephew oatmeal because his Physician said it contained gluten. This didn't make sense to me so I did a little investigating. It turns out that while oatmeal does not contain gluten, the majority of the brands out there are made in facilities which are not gluten free. Luckily, I went to my local health food store to see if there was such a thing as gluten free oatmeal and they had instant oatmeal in different flavors! I bought them all!!! My nephew is so excited about having something new in his diet that he's been asking to eat oatmeal for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the past two weeks. LOL!

Keep in mind that even 10% of celiacs DO react to oatmeal because the protein in oats is similar to that in wheat. Even if they don't, the research recommends no more than half a cup of oats a day for a celiac.

I went and bought Bob's Red Mill gluten-free steel cut oats for my son who was recently diagnosed (and loves oatmeal). He gobbled it down and asked for more, but as I went to get the second bowl he started having a stomach ache. I think I will try one more time to see if it was a gluten response or that he ate too fast. Hoping for the 2nd, but I fear he may be part of the 10%.

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:
