Huffington Post

I'm talking about celiac disease -- a serious genetic condition that television personality Joy Behar dubbed as "baloney" on the Jan. 20, 2015 episode of MSNBC's Morning Joe show. Let me say that again: a serious condition. More specifically, a serious ...

I saw a clip of that episode, it was embarassed for for her.  I don't know what she was thinking; she completely changed the subject and went on a rant about people who order gluten-free and how celiac is the new "it" disease to be pitched by celebrities trying to make a buck... It was pretty ignorant.   :(

 

And didn't she work with Elisabeth Hasslesomething who was a celiac and wrote a (not super educational) book, The gluten-free Diet? Nice.  :rolleyes:

 

Her stupidity starts at about 2 minutes in:

I agree with Nicole...I'm embarrassed for Joy. I don't even get it...what she was thinking.

Well when your a washed up has been, some will do anything for attention like j*y did. I refuse to say or spell her name as its getting her name ratings both good and bad. I think she said it for attention to draw ppl to her Facebook and stuff and sadly we are giving her what she wants attention. I put her ugliness right up there with Miley and her younger at the mtv awards. Trashy and dirty.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
