I had the tv on GMA ealier but was not really watching it and I could swear that Sarah (food contributor) said that some cinnamon buns were wheat free and gluten free. She went quickly on to the next thing so I don't know if I misheard her or not. Nothing else on the table was mentioned as gluten free. Did anyone else see this and if so, is that what she said about the cin. buns - that they were gluten free? If so that's pretty awesome!

Was it Sara Moulton?

I didn't see it but.....I tried to do a search at gma and they are having a netwok outage :unsure:

Usually they will have the recipes of the foods that were shown on air on the website.

I didn't see it, but that is very possible. She works at Gourmet Magazine which featured Annalise Roberts in their November issue. Maybe I'll send an e-mail to one of my friends there to find out, and if that was infact the case find out if they were from Annalise's recipe.

I'll let you know.

I finally got on to the gma site, here is what they sat about Sara's appearance (on first glance I don't notice any mention of anything gluten-free):

July 11, 2006 — Every year, "Good Morning America's" food editor Sara Moulton navigates her way through aisle after aisle at the Fancy Food Show.

At this year's 52nd Summer Fancy Food Show, 160,000 food products were featured.

The show, which is closed to the public and travels around the country, kicked off in New York on Sunday and ends its Big Apple stay today.

To see where it goes next, visit the show's Web site.

All the products featured there will be available to the public within weeks. Moulton found that this year, the predominant flavor trends were wasabi and pomegranates.

Check out some of the great new products she found below.

Okay - I'm sure it was the cin. buns she mentioned as being wheat free and gluten free. I don't think I was dreaming. I'm going to try and e-mail Sarah and see if I heard her correctly or not. Thanks for posting the list - see the word free in the cin. buns? That's why I'm thinking that's it. I'll post a response if I get one.

If you go to the link at the end of my post the first item on the list is the frozen cinnamon buns. There is a clickabel link to the place that makes them, it is called The Robinhood Free Meetinghouse's. That's where the "free" might be coming from. But it still could be a possibility.

Let us know if you do get a response :)

I had GMA on that morning and my husband said that she mentioned something about gluten free food. I was out of the room at the moment. I ran back in, but didn't hear anything else about gluten free foods. So if you were dreaming my husband must have been having the same dream ;)

Oh good then - I'm not totally losing it - lol! GMA has not replied to me and I doubt they will. I have to go through Sara's show I guess to try and get to her. I don't watch her so does anyone know what her food network show is called?

It said Robin Hood Free Meetinghouse's Frozen Cinnamon Buns. Robin Hood is a big flour manufacturer. Why would he and his band of merry men bake gluten-free cinnamon buns - they are in the business of selling gluteny flour.

Great if it's true, but I'm skeptical. ;)

Well maybe the same reason Whole Foods now has Gluten Free Bakehouse goods. If Lee Tobin, their head baker, had not been dx'd with Celiac a few years ago - that line would not exist today.

Thanks ChelsE for posting the links but I can't find a place to e-mail anyone at Sara's show. Let me know if I'm overlooking it. Sara said something was wheat and gluten free so now I'd really like to know what she was talking about. I'm not sure she was talking about the cin. buns but it seemed that she was.

Oh I totally forgot about this. Let me know if you don't get a response from her and I will e-mail her. (We work for the same parent company so getting an internal e-mail may help).

No reply from Sara but I'm not sure I e-mailed the right address.

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
