I just joined NT yesterday as I was diagnosed with Parkinsonism/PD last year and someone on a British website for PD told me about NT BUT I was diagnosed with coeliac disease (how we spell it in the UK!) back in the 1970s. At the time, in my mid-20s, I was advised to avoid wheat, oats, rye, barley and all their by-products... I used to love cookies my grandmother made, called flapjacks, which were entirely of oats (with syrup and sugar!) so if it is true that coeliacs can now eat oats, guess who is going to dig out her grandmothers recipe!!! :E
