BIG MISTAKE, within minutes A thick fog surrounded my brain and I could barely function finally after 4 hours the fog lifted and I started to feel better.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 The fact that it is Organic makes a big difference however if you have a problem with oats, then none. If you have a problem with chemicals all the difference in the world. Is it is about the diet ??

What makes this different than Quaker oatmeal? OATMEAL IS GRAIN, so you will have to decide on that one. Steel cut oats are no different from Quaker oats which are simply rolled oats rather than cut oats. I have learned that while oats do not contain gluten they are processed in the same facilities that process wheat so they can have gluten from the wheat as a result. You can buy oats that are not processed in the same facilities as wheat and that specifically say gluten free. anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Correction: Steel cut oats are massively different from quaker oats, Are they both grains, of course. What you are saying is like comparing rapadura to table sugar and calling them the same thing. btw - oats are gluten containing, just low on the list. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of anita paulsen Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2011 4:50 PM Subject: Re: [] Organic Steel Oatmeal Roseanne wrote--- I was @ Trader Joes shopping and noticed ther Organic Steel Oatmeal.I bought it and made it tonight for tommorrow`s breakfast.
