I am not quite sure where you "heard" that no research
was done ... I am a freelance writer for Sully's and I personally
devote a minimum of 10 hours of research before I set pen
to paper.

Additionally, once I submit my article, it is edited and
fact-checked, and sent back to me so that I can confirm
and/or debate their edits.  Having been a journalist for a long
time, I can tell you that this is rare indeed  -- and very welcome.

This strikes me as nothing more than a pot-shot. If you'd like
to give us examples of "4th grade reading level" then that
might be more instructive for those involved with the magazine.

I just had a similar discussion with my dermatologist  ... and she
agreed that there is quite a debate about whether or not topical
applications of gluten could/would do harm.  It is in the best
interests of the magazine, and the celiac community,  to present
both sides of the story.

While I cannot speak for the magazine itself as I operate on a
freelance basis  .... I can say that baseless allegations of
no research, etc., borders on libel. I do hope that whatever
information you do have about this issue you will share,
privately, with the owners and editors of Sully's  ...
