Here is an article about oats and its risks with celiac disease that has more information:

I am new to it too. I have been eating gluten free completely since June.

Here is a few tips of what to avoid. Starches - like corn starch - tend to be not gluten. Check your cheeses and yogurt. Ask your pharmacist for lists of medicines that are gluten free because there are medicines out there that are not.

Food to look for: Amy's Indian food and Vans waffles.
