is it possible to be allergic to oats
Oats are very healthy. They are high in fiber, nutrients and omega 3 fatty acids that keep your body and heart in optimum shape. Despite its healthy characteristics, people can develop allergic reactions to oats. Oat allergy shouldn't be confused with celiac disease. Celiac is gluten intolerance and oats don't always have gluten. In fact, people with gluten allergy substitute oats for wheat and other products that have gluten. Celiac is often linked to oat allergy because some of the people allergic to gluten also experience minor allergic symptoms when they ingest oats.
