What it is
Oats are a whole grain, grown for their edible seeds. "GF" stands for "gluten-free." These oats have been processed in a way that prevents them from being contaminated with gluten from wheat, barley, or rye.
Why it's used
Gluten-free oats are used as a whole grain ingredient in many foods. They provide fiber and a chewy texture, and are often found in snack bars, baked goods, and breakfast cereals for consumers avoiding gluten.
Health notes
Gluten-free oats are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a good source of soluble fiber, which may help manage cholesterol levels. The WHO/IARC has not classified oats. Some people with celiac disease may still react to avenin, a protein in oats, even if they are certified gluten-free.
Allergen info
Oats themselves are not one of the 9 major allergens. However, they are often processed in facilities that handle wheat, and cross-contamination can occur. Dedicated gluten-free processing is required to ensure they are safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
