Are Oats Gluten-Free?

You May Not Fully Understand The Details: Most People Don't

& What It Means For GF Cheerios & Oreos

​

Hi Everyone!

You may think you understand about oats and gluten, but please read on. You may not have the full scoop.

If you signed up for this email list, the odds are that my new post on oats​ and gluten will pertain to you. This information is for anyone who is on a gluten-free diet, or is sensitive to gluten, or who has ongoing health issues or unexplained symptoms such as:

  • Chronic Fatigue
  • SIBO
  • Histamine Intolerance
  • Autoimmune Conditions
  • IBS or chronic digestive issues
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Headaches
  • Muscle aches
  • Chronic pain or inflammation

Oats can be more problematic than many people realize. Even most dietitians and doctors aren't clear on the information.

​In my new p​ost, I answer common questions about why oats, even GF oats, may contribute to health symptoms. I have included a section about the GF Cheerios and Oreos controversies.

Let’s dive into the details and clear up the confusion surrounding oats, their place in a gluten-free diet, and what you should do.

If you find this post helpful, please share it with your dietitian, health care provider, or friends and family who may benefit from it. If you belong to any Facebook groups that may find the information helpful, please copy and share the link at the red button below.

I think there is a lot of misunderstanding on this topic out there, and I see many people who have been helped immensely by this information. Thank you and have a wonderful day!
