My daughter was at the taping of the show where Elisabeth talks about her

Celiac. Coincidentally, I have it as do many members of my family. Anyway,

the audience was told that the show will air THIS FRIDAY - the 26th! I know

that Rosie mentioned next week, but again, it will be this Friday.

Thanks! I'll advise my 60 member support group that the View will include a discussion about Elizabeth Hasselback's celiac disease experience TOMORROW, January 27, 2007.

Thanks so much for letting us know! I tivo'ed it :)

Rusla Enthusiast
Wow! Thanks for the heads up :)

I didn't see it on the website for tomorrow but I bet that is when they will have it because I will be at work.

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Does anyone know when The View is on in Alberta? I'm hoping it's around lunch time so I can watch.

Rusla Enthusiast

I don't know when it is on, and I work all day so, I am going to miss it but I did write to Elisabeth. Seeing as how so many of us have written to her that if they do have it tomorrow maybe they will run it again sometime.

I am so excited! I love Elisabeth!

Laura:

I am so sorry that your not doing well. Hang in there. :)

Wow---I'm watching this right now and its awesome!

She is so cute, so fun! She is drinking gluten free beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They talked about-and drank-Redbridge and both of them said it was really good (Rosie and Elisabeth are the ones who drank it).

She mentioned that she was sick for about four years, and felt much better when she was on Survivor, because they were eating fish and rice.

She has also been genetically tested, and officially has the gene, so that is why she is watching her daughter and being careful about gluten with her.

She mentioned the 1 in 133 Americans have it, but 97% don't know it.

I thought she really did a good job explaining it. They even talked about how so many people have written her....they must be talking about us :)

She was really positive about it, how there are lots of great products out there now. She also talked about how it is misdiagnosed with IBS, colitis, and other things like that. She said it is related to higher risks of cancer, and that it is related to diabetes, thyroid, infertility. I think in the short amount of time she had, she really hit the high points!

Lisa Mentor

I WANT THAT BEER!!!!!!!

marciab Enthusiast

RATS .. she didn't mention nuerological symptoms, just digestive ... I heard they have a blog though ...

I love that she felt better on survivor without eating ... Most of us can relate to that :lol:

happygirl Collaborator

I have a six pack in my fridge with your name on it, my dear :)

jesscarmel Enthusiast

i cant watch it until i get home but it sounds great!!!!!

uch Laura, i hate flagyl!!! its the worst medication. i think i took it in universtiy once and it made me so sick :( feel better!

Canadian Karen Community Regular

She did an awesome job!!!! YAY!

I'm sure it's not coincidental that she was promoting the new AB beer but if that is what it took for her to 'come out' so to speak I'm thrilled that AB approached her. Maybe she had them donate money to Celiac research or something. AB is a huge ABC sponsor and having anyone on The View drink Redbridge on air is priceless advertising. Either way it works and at least she mentioned infertility in addition to IBS. Hopefully they will do a proper health segment on Celiac next week. We should all send Elisabeth TY e-mails today and ask they do so.

Lisa Mentor

I am so thrilled. Let's keep a watch out for incomming. :)

What time in the episode is it? Not sure I'll be able to sit through a whole episode...

I got home from the off leash in time to watch the back half of the Eastern feed. Nothing there but a guy decorating cakes. :blink: I don't think they were gluten-free.

I have to go to school for the fun lunch, so I'm setting the PVR for the Western feed. (PVR is Canadian Tivo.)

Judyin Philly Enthusiast

Agree :D got allot in given the short time she had.

i wrote her also. Thanked her for talking about her personal issue and asked to have more about it on future shows and suggested Dr P Green as a guest. Hope all will jot her a note of thanks and encourage her to do future shows on our topic.

Geoff :D

It was on within the first 10? 15? minutes or so. They usually sit around a table and "talk" to start the show, and it was while they were still in that segment, rather than when they have guests, etc.

Creative-Soul Newbie

She did a pretty decent job in the, like, three minutes that she had! :P It would've been great to have had a broader overview but it's a great start and I'm sure it will get a lot of people thinking...

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
