Emmy Rossum On Martha

Hi all,

I just turned on the TV for some noise while I was doing the dishes and I caught the last minute of Martha. I normally don't watch it, but she mentioned that tomorrow she is going to have Emma Rossum on the show and they are going to cook something together. I know that Emma Rossum is Celiac, so I am thinking they might mention it and that the food they cook is gluten free? It's enough for me to tape it and see if they emntion Celiac/gluten free food...

How cool! I had never heard of her, so I did a websearch and found that it's even mentioned in her bio on IMDB.com Open Original Shared Link

Nice to see a celeb who is open about it, rather than rumors. I hope she mentions it.

Off to set the Tivo! This is exciting--all these mentions on TV lately.

Thanks Mariann :D

Thanks for posting. I never watch Martha but did listen to her XM radio show when she had Kim Kholler on taking about eating gluten free around the globe. I'll be sure and tape it tomorrow. Wow! That would be aweseome if they mention at least gluten on that show. That could really do a lot in terms of people getting used to the term. That crazy Steve Colbert (comedy central) made up a word 'truthiness' and now it's litterally popping up everywhere....even on Oprah one day.

gf4life--thanks for posting. I won't be able to watch today, but please let us know how it goes. Also, Nantzie, thanks for posting the biography. I've actually seen her in movies without knowing who she was. It's interesting that she'd play a young Audrey Hepburn considering that there's been a whole segment about speculation of Hepburn's possible celiac disease on the celebrity thread.

It was disappointing. She was cooking w/ Martha and said she has a gluten allergy. Martha said "oh, you can't have flour". She said yes and made a face. That was it! How about "I can have other flours" and maybe even get her to make something special?

That is dissapointing--I recorded it, and then my parents called, and I haven't had a chance to watch. I guess I didn't miss much--thanks!

Okay, now I admit that she was NOT there to talk about Celiac/gluten, but they did cook a gluten-free dessert, they just didn't say it was gluten-free. at least she did mention that she cannot eat gluten, but I do wish she would have said something about the other gluten-free flours that she could make "pastries" and such out of...

If she really loves to cook, then I am sure she does cook gluten-free goodies for herself. It is a bit misleading that she replied to Martha's "so you can't eat any flour at all?", with a look of disappointment and a "no". I mean she CAN eat flour, just not gluten flours... there is a big difference. But like I said, she was on the show to cook, not talk about her food issues. At least she did mention and the word does get out. Someone will hear it and look up "gluten allergy".

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
