Volume 334, number 13 of the New England Journal of Medicine and their WEB
site at: http://www.nejm.org/publicM/1996/0334/0013/0865/1.htm have a
follow-up article on allowing oats in the diet of celiacs. We have not
duplicated this article on the List since it is copyrighted.  The NEJM's
policy on copyrights allows links but not duplication of the material.
 
David Branski, M.D., Margot Shine, M.D., and Shaare Zedek Medical Center,
Jerusalem 91031, Israel reports their belief that allowing oats in the diet
is premature. They sited the short duration of the study and the increased
risk of cancer related through small intake of gluten (Holmes et al).
 
It does appear that the initial study is being continued for an additonal
five years.
 
The listowners have previously collected lengthy reports about oats from
the professionals on the cel-pro discussion group.  While there was not
unanimous agreement, most of the pros recommended waiting until
further research is done before adding oats to the celiac Diet. As many of
you know, these reports on oats are available by sending this
