What type of oats should you eat, gluten free?

There are no specific clips from the Huberman Lab addressing the type of oats to eat specifically for a gluten-free diet. However, generally, gluten-free oats are labeled as such, and you should look for brands that ensure no cross-contamination with gluten-containing grains.

Here are a few key points to consider when choosing gluten-free oats:

1. Certified Gluten-Free: Look for oats specifically marked as certified gluten-free to ensure they are processed in a facility free from gluten contamination.

2. Types of Oats:

   • Rolled Oats: These are steamed, rolled flat, and then toasted. They cook faster and have a chewy texture.
   • Steel-Cut Oats: These are whole oat groats chopped into pieces. They take longer to cook but have a hearty texture.
   • Instant Oats: Pre-cooked and dried, requiring minimal preparation. Make sure they are labeled gluten-free.

3. Avoid Oats with Additives: Some flavored or pre-packaged oat products may contain gluten or other additives that could be unsuitable for a gluten-free diet.
