Jessica's Natural Foods uses only certified gluten-free oats and oat flour in our granola. Our supplier protects and checks the oats at every stage of the process from seed to harvesting and packaging. As an extra precautionary measure, the oats and oat flour are also ELISA tested for the presence of gluten.   Are oats safe for people with Celiac Disease?   The Gluten Free Intolerance Group (GIG) has the following position on oats in a gluten free diet: "Research shows that pure, uncontaminated oats in moderation (1/2 cup dry daily) are safe for most persons with celiac disease. Oats add soluble fiber and nutrients to the GFD that are otherwise lacking or have limited availability. Some studies indicate that compliance with the GFD is increased when oats are included.    Some persons using oats may notice increased abdominal discomfort, gas and stool changes. This may be due to the increased fiber from oats. Introducing oats slowly may decrease this discomfort. Rarely, some persons with celiac disease may have a hypersensitivity to oats. There is insufficient research to suggest this is related to a gluten-like reaction, or an allergic reaction.  The GIG Medical Advisory Board suggests you work closely with your health care team before adding oats, and that you have your antibody levels reviewed periodically. This position has been approved by the GIG Medical Advisory Board.
