Can People with Ileostomies Eat Sorghum and Oat Flours?

I have been trying to find some information about flours other than white.  Does anyone know if people with ileostomies can eat Sorghum and Oat flours??  I have a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe that my husband and I really like but I don't know if I can eat it now.  Have any of you folks used alternate flours?   I do not cook with whole wheat at all.   Thank you.

I'm sorry, I have a colostomy, not an ileostomy, so I didn't realize that gluten gave you problems. If you like the texture of whole wheat, have you tried rye flour? And oatmeal has a lot of SOLUBLE fiber, as opposed to insoluble fiber, so I would imaging oat flour would give you a really good texture without the gluten. Also check on rice flour - a staple for Japanese cooking, and probably much more available than some of the others.

Hi,

I also have an ileostomy. I eat all flours with no problem. But out of concern for health and avoiding the unhealthy effects of GMOs, I stick to ORGANIC products. I also prefer sprouted grains. They are better for your system. I do however use organic whole oats, oat flour, even steel cut oats, if that helps.I think I have tried sorghum. If you are new to having an ileostomy, try a bit and see how it feels first. As time goes by, you can safely eat more and more things:)
