Dear All,

A recent report by a company in the UK has described a gluten-free diet as a
"fad".  This has been reported today on the BBC's lunch-time TV news showing
various GF special packs as examples of special foods being sold for diet
fads.

Please will you all help us over here in the UK by e-mailing the BBC and
explaining the reality of CD and demanding that they apologise for their
serious misjudgement of using this medically required diet as an example of
a food fad.  Please explain WHY it isn't a fad too.

Rather than give you a specific feed-back site at the BBC please can you
search for one and feed your complaint into it.  With luck, we should then
spread the word MUCH more widely throughout the BBC, so EVERYONE there
knows.

Regards

David
