Thanks for posting! I saw this earlier today, and while I'm not thrilled about Elizabeth Hasselback... I figure that a LOT of people watch Dr Oz, so this should be a good thing. :)

I am hoping this time, Elizabeth's focus is not on the "gluten-free diet" as being a "diet to lose weight" we shall see how it goes...

I am really upset about missing this episode of Dr. Oz. ( I did not find out the air date until just now!) Did anyone see it? What was it about?

Thanks,

Wenmin

I did barely remind myself. I thought Dr. Oz did a great job, but I grew tired hearing reference to the "G.-free" diet. In fact, even on this site, we have automatic controls not to accept "gluten-free" as legitimate. Spell it out Girl! (can you imagine going into a restaurant and explaining to the waitress, "I'm on the G.-free diet"....um grapefruit?)

I enjoyed hearing from Dr. Peter Greene.

Most any awareness is good, and I should not nit-pick, but......

Elizabeth said all blue cheeses are gone from the diet and said "sorry". How evey untrue.

This research in this field changes so quickly, that two year old information is frequently no longer valid.

Maybe someone can post the video when available. It's well worth the view.

I used today's show as an awareness opportunity... Last week I sent an email to my friends and relatives (son & daughter too) about the the Dr OZ show's Topic of Celiac Disease.. Hopefully my friends and relatives saw the show today, so they can better understand that I can't cheat one day a week to just eat around the bad foods when I'm at their house...

I saw only the first 15 minutes or so, but I did like how Dr. Oz showed how gluten causes an autoimmune (he used that word !) reaction and had animation of the intestine to illustrate. He stressed how serious this condition is, and the consequences that can occur if a Celiac does not stick to the gluten-free diet or is undiagnosed. He talked about symptoms--not just the obvious GI ones, and testing.

I also liked how he and Dr. Green mentioned gluten intolerance.

I'm not an Elizabeth Hasselbeck fan, I'll say that up front, but she was still wrong about blue cheese and instant coffee. She dismissed both completely out of hand. I would rather have seen Dr. Green up on the stage in discussion with Dr. Oz than have him comment from the audience, but all in all I thought it was very good and informative.

I'm out of town at the moment, but it was recorded at home so I can watch the whole thing soon. :)

Does anyone know how to get a copy of the show? I missed it and have contacted the station but not sure if they will respond. If someone recorded it, is there a way to make a copy?

You can go to the Dr. Oz Show website--

The Celiac Disease episode is the ninth one down--you can read about the content there by clicking on the title. I didn't search the entire site, but you may be able to view a video there or get info.

Yes, I totally agree jerseyangel. I would've rather have seen Dr. Green on the stage with Dr. Oz, also. I watched the whole show. I wish they would've went in to more detail & talked about celiac disease for the whole hour, but it was only twenty minutes. There was just so many symptoms they didn't even touch on.

I am glad that they are finally talking about celiac & bringing awareness to the community. People really need to know about this. I don't wish anyone to find out they had celiac disease after ten years of intestinal damage (like myself). They should be diagnosed so much sooner. So at least it is progress.

Long story short, I've been off work on Medical Leave for Carpal Tunnel Release.. During that time, I watched the Dr OZ Show and emailed many concerns about Celiac Disease... I may never know if it helped celiac disease get a spot on the Show, but I'm sure it didn't hurt... Maybe celiac disease could get another, but more in depth spot on the show at a latter date if more people emailed Dr OZ...

Couldn't find the video, but did a search and found lots of good blog stuff about it.

I've never watched Dr. Oz's show before so I don't know what a "normal" segment looks like, but the whole thing seemed rushed. I watched the whole show and it all seemed to be rushed, so I'm thinking that's just what he does.

I have no real like or dislike for Elizabeth H. In general, I thought she did OK. I don't like that she gets hyped as an expert and she's not. She's just like the rest of us who make mistakes (like with the coffee) but she's got millions of people listening so she needs to be up-to-date!! The "g.-free" thing is just plain annoying. I thought Dr. Oz promoted gluten-free as a weight loss diet more than Elizabeth H. did (although I think it is in her book somewhere).

I, too, am bummed that I missed this show. I made sure I set aside time to watch it. The Dr. Oz show came on and there was nothing about celiac on it. Can't believe I tuned in on the 11th and not the 10th :(

I just read the article for the Dr. Oz show on Celiac and gluten intolerance. I question this statement from it: "The difference between gluten intolerance and Celiac disease is that gluten intolerance generally does not cause the same kind of intestinal damage, but does lead to uncomfortable abdominal symptoms with the ingestion of gluten."

From almost everything I read, gluten intolerance that isn't celiac can cause way more damage and discomfort thatn just "uncomfortable abdominal symptoms". Does anyone care to comment?

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thank you for sharing all of this, Knitty Kitty! I did just want someone to share some commonality with. I did not know This one Deficiency was a thing and that it's common for Celiac Disease. It makes sense since this is a disorder that causes malabsorption. I will have to keep this in mind for my next appointments. You also just spurred me on to make that Dietician appointment. There's a lot of information online but I do need to see a professional. There is too much to juggle on my own with this condition.<3
