Gold-standard oats grown and processed following rigorous gluten-free Purity Protocol
Quincy, Mass., May 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bay State Milling’s SowNaked® Mindfully Farmed Oats are a unique variety of hulless oats that deliver 40% more protein and 50% less carbon emissions than traditional oats, and are grown following gluten-free Purity Protocol. SowNaked Oats are grown and processed in a highly specialized, closed loop, gluten-free supply chain—resulting in oat flakes with less than 5 parts per million (ppm) of gluten, dramatically below the 20 ppm threshold set by the FDA for a gluten-free claim. During Celiac Awareness Month, Bay State Milling is highlighting this important distinction to educate and protect consumers, especially those living with celiac disease.
“Bay State Milling Company’s SowNaked Oats are not only grown in a way that enables Purity Protocol gluten-free, but the unique variety also has a great nutritional impact, with 40% more protein than traditional oats,” said Bay State Milling’s Director of Oats Sales, Mark Maloney. “While oats are naturally gluten-free, many common varieties are cross-contaminated with gluten. Consuming gluten, even in trace amounts, can be detrimental to people with celiac disease and negatively affect those with gluten sensitivity. SowNaked Oats are a staple ingredient gluten-free consumers can trust, with the added benefit of high protein.”
