Mainstream Media Spreads Inaccurate Information about Celiac Disease
Five years ago, it was almost unheard of to find information about celiac disease or the gluten-free diet in the mainstream media. Today, there is so much of it that it’s hard to keep up with it all. There was a time when many in our community agreed that all publicity was good for our [...]
NY Times Article about Food Allergies
