[Avodah] Yeast isn't chameitz

: Oats: The Gemara says the five grains are all types of wheat or
: barley. However, oats are not a type of either.

I have several friends who have "celiac" in their family

 From what I can tell gluten is common to all 5 grains including oats
There are a few others such as triticale that have gluten, too.
So even though oats are a bit different there is a common denominator
with wheat, barley, rye, and spelt.

What is the proposed alternative to oats in the 5 species?
