PURE GLUTEN FREE Starting your day with a bowl of hearty porridge provides valuable health benefits. Oat porridge and whole oat products are hugely benefcial to coeliacs, providing fibre, controlling blood sugar levels and reducing the build-up of 'bad' cholesterol that can lead to heart disease.
Current medical literature states that most coeliacs can safely eat moderate amounts of uncontaminated oats.
Conventional oat companies do little to prevent the cross-contamination of oats when planting, harvesting, transporting, milling and processing. Our oats are tested 10 times between planting and harvest to assure seed purity, and then again before they are sealed and packed.
Medical literature suggests that people on a gluten free diet, due to coeliac disease or gluten intolerance, should introduce pure uncontaminated oats into their diet slowly and gradually. A traditional coeliac diet has very little grain fibre, so your gastrointestinal system may need time to adjust to the increased fibre content.
Ask your doctor or dietician for advice on how to timetable the introduction of gluten free oats into your diet. We recommend you start with 25g of dry oats per day, twice a week for the first 3 weeks. Then increase to 50g and 75g at 4-6 weeks.

One of Hale & Hearty’s founders is a coeliac, so we’re well aware of the severe reaction people can have if they eat cross-contaminated oats. That’s why we only use oats from totally uncontaminated sources.
