My daughter got all excited because a character mentioned gluten-free marshmallows on Hannah Montana today. The show was a little negative about it but my little girls thought it was so cool. :)

Anyone know any other mentions of gluten-free diets in kids' shows?

Since my sons are grown now, I don't watch any of the kid's shows anymore....but yesterday on QVC, they were selling a breadmaker. The host was going through the cookbook that comes with it, and said that there is a gluten-free setting and a great recipe in the book for gluten-free bread.

He said that his wife is "gluten sensitive" and eats gluten-free. The other man who was representing the company that makes the machine added that gluten-free flours are now available in many grocery stores.

Yep, we just watched that one (for the 100th time I think!!) today on the HM marathon. My dd's smile every time they hear that line. Then one of them says "but all marshmallows are gluten-free!!" They think it is just funny to hear gluten-free mentioned on their fav show!

AWESOME! i hate how it's always negative mentions that intolerances/allergies get.

There is a radio station in Dallas (i don't know if it's everywhere), and it has no DJ's it's all computerized and it plays random songs, but it's just about commercial free, and mostly just plays music. They do say little things in between songs sometimes. the other day i was listening and they said "Okay, so we aren't commercial free, but hey... we are gluten-free" I guess since there are no Dj's and it's just computers it is true lol. I was pretty happy to hear it mentioned like that :) Maybe people will start understanding what gluten is soon :)

It was mentioned on "That's so Raven" about a year ago. My daughter isn't even a celiac and she was excited about it. :)

Her Dad, Billy Ray, had a program called "DOC" and they too had an episode that involved a celiac person. They must be familiar with celiac disease.

OK, Disney Channel is about the only channel that's ever turned on in my house these days!

Now I have to ask which episodes of Hannah Montana and That's So Ravin mentioned gluten-free. I've probably seen all of them - or at least listened to them while playing online.

Hey! Inquiring minds still want to know!

In DOC I don't recall the details, but he diagnosed someone as having celiac disease ...I think, just think if I recall, the patient was an older teenager whose family thought she had an eating disorder. Don't quote me though, it's been a few years since I saw it.

Open Original Shared Link on this forum. It wasn't a whole segment, just mentioned in passing.

All of the kids shows nowadays (GOD that makes me sound old!) make me run screaming from the room, so when they come on, I don't usually stick around for long. But I definitely hear when they mention gluten-free. I think my spidey sense kicks in and I can hear it from anywhere in the house. :lol:

Hannah Montana just had one of the characters mention something about toasting gluten-free marshmallows. I wasn't paying attention at all to the show (bad mom!) but I'm certain it was just a remark in passing.

I just watched the movie Sydney White with Amanda Bynes.. and they had a gluten free conversation! I had to tell someone, and I figured you would all get just as excited as I was. They were at a cookout, and Sydney reassured her friend that they had a separate gluten free soy burger for him! Another girl overheard and was like ohh do you have another one? He responded, "your gluten free too??" and she replied, "yes! my whole life! it can be so hard!" hahah I was like beaming!! :D

      This is FANTASTIC--especially that they are recognising barley and (potentially) oats as sources of gluten/contamination! Now if only we can get labeling guidelines to clarify "spices" and "natural flavors" for those of us with other severe allergies.

      What are your daily meals? Guilty pleasure snacks? Protein bars? I feel when looking for gluten free foods they are filled with sugar cholesterol. Looking for healthy gluten-free protein bars.

      Labs ? Awaiting in person follow up with my GI

      Unfortunately, there is presently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. NCGS is thought to be much more common than celiac disease. We know that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder but the mechanism of NCGS is less clear. Both call for an elimination of gluten from the diet.

      Labs ? Awaiting in person follow up with my GI

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated. I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population? Also, I found what you said about N...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Thanks bumped it up and now take all 3 vitamins 2 capsules each with the super b complex at breakfast. I will give it some time to see if I notice a difference. I am going to track my eating daily diary on a myfitness pal app to see if the "claimed" gluten free foods bother me or not.

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated.  I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population?  Also,  I found what you said about NCGS very interesting and I appreciate you mentioning that.  I’ve worked hard to research and advocate for myself with my Hematologist and now with a new GI, since my bowel surgery and to maintain my Vitamin B12 health concurrent with keeping my levels of Iron in the optimal range. I’ve been tested for SIBO (do not have it), biopsy showed negative for HPylori, and have had Fecal studies done (nothing showed up) and I understand how a loss of a large amount of bowel could be highly impacting re: SIBO, malabsorption and motility issues. So I’ve managed pretty well diet and elimination-wise until just recently. That said, this new problem with extreme bloating, distention and upper girth, NAFLD just occured over the last 4 months so it is new for me and I thought celiac might be a possible issue. I’ll probably just continue on in this less gluten/carbs seem to be better for me and see how reintroducing certain foods go.  Thanks again.

      Yeast extract

      By JoJo0611 · Posted

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.
