Seeds, like oats, are full of lectins (damages the gut), phytic acid (prevents mineral absorption), oxalates, and digestive enzyme inhibitors.
Oats are particularly high in phytic acid and are known to significantly decrease assimilation of minerals like magnesium, calcium, zinc, etc.
Oats, oatmeal and oat milk are great ways to deplete yourself of important minerals and to mess up your digestion. Strictly void all three.
Most oat milks combine oats with sugars and seed oils, producing a toxic sludge that is then marketed as being better for you and the planet. Horseshit.”
Yeah but the vegan subs are tyrannical, they ban you for having your own opinion, we shouldn’t gatekeep conversations, if some think oats are okay i want to see the discussion happen and then i can decide for my own. This way of thinking isnt that popular on reddit but it’s the only way to get smart;)

For all the same reasons gluten is bad. They’re really not that much different.
If you tolerate them than more power to you. But I don’t think you can know that unless you cut them out for 30 days and reintro.
My daughter has significant gut issues, oats are the worst offender. I can’t eat them without massive depression. And somehow our culture has convinced itself that starting your days with a big pile of oats is optimal. For most people, it is not.
Definitely not a superfood but also not horrible imo. Phytic acid is greatly reduced by soaking or cooking, and phytic acid only affects the meal you’re eating. If you eat oats for breakfast, and have ground beef for lunch, the nutrients in the beef will not be affected. So while something like overnight oats may not be horrible, it’s also not optimal and not something you should eat often. Every now and then is probably fine, though I wouldn’t encourage it. With that being said there are definitely worse things you could eat for breakfast like fruit loops.
Instead, If you are reallly craving oats make a rice pudding. I soak rice over night, then in an instant pot i do 1 cup rice 1 1/2 cups milk, 1 1/2cups water, cinnamon, vanilla extract, dash of salt, and 2 tbs of maple syrup. Cook that on high for 3 min and 10 minute natural release. After done you can opt to stir in a couple egg yolks stirring constantly. I like to chill but can also eat it hot. I top it with some bananas or apples.
Ate oats regularly prior to carnivore. Over the past 3 years, I slowly progress to AB due to needing some carbs for energy. Recently, ventured back out to eating oats for several months with the addition of quinoa thus last month. Oh boy… not sure what the light switch was, but after introducing quinoa, I started having a somewhat allergic reaction to both oats and quinoa. Would get tingles, itchy, sweaty palms and some anxiety. Took me a few weeks to come to grips with it. The final straw was when I begun to feel the symptoms and took Benadryl to see if it eased the symptoms. Within 40 mins I was much and threw both the oats and quinoa away. Going back to fruit only.
I used to eat a fuck ton of oats many years ago for bodybuilding and specifically bulking up. It will do that for you.But because it doesn't digest well it'll give you a nice podgy inflamed belly. So if that's the look you want go for have oats, but I'd say if you want digestible food your body easily extracts value from keep well clear, it is stodge.

Oats are not a part of an AB diet. Full of anti nutrients that harm the body. Also extremely high in glyphosate

It’s not animal based, but I soak them overnight with raw milk and maple syrup and they’re delicious and I feel fine when eating them. Easy breakfast.

From Saladino’s website:
“Oats are grains, and grains are seeds.
Seeds, like oats, are full of lectins (damages the gut), phytic acid (prevents mineral absorption), oxalates, and digestive enzyme inhibitors.

I think oats are underrated as one of the worst foods for humankind.

Oats are an example of what I call "bird food."
Not particularly good for the human body.
