Do not eat foods and drinks that contain the following:
- Wheat.
- Barley.
- Rye.
- Triticale.
- Oats, unless the label says they're gluten-free.
Oats are naturally gluten-free. But they may become tainted during production with wheat, barley or rye. This is known as cross-contamination. Oats and oat products labeled gluten-free have not been cross-contaminated. But some people with celiac disease may have a reaction to another protein in oats called avenin. Ask your healthcare professional if it's OK to include gluten-free-labeled oats in your diet.
