Comments on: The Gluten-Free Lie: Why Most Celiacs Are Slowly Dying A guest post by Jordan Reasoner http://celiachandbook.com/opinion/the-gluten-free-lie/ Living and loving the gluten-free life.™ Tue, 30 Oct 2012 14:55:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: CeliacHandbook http://celiachandbook.com/opinion/the-gluten-free-lie/#comment-1164 CeliacHandbook Tue, 10 Apr 2012 19:44:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=5923#comment-1164 Hi Salvatore, thank you for your comment. The point of the headline is to help people realize that eating a "gluten-free" diet as prescribed by so much of the healthcare community can be quite detrimental to your health and can in fact prevent someone from properly healing. The term "gluten-free" has been hijacked by junk food companies with very little concern over our health, all the while insisting that it is a healthy choice. This is sometimes a hard message to get across, hence the choice of the title. We never want to make anyone's life harder, we just want to help people make informed decisions on what gluten-free means and how important it is. Thanks again for being a part of the CH community.

I am in first year of dealing with this, and not seeing a big improvement. It's hard enough to be overwhelmed with it all (and the hundreds of food sensitivities, which means I am probably his target audience!!)...I feel the title is a bit too much. Really wanted to pass it along to my Dr. to read, but feared he would read the header and not read. You guys should consider toning it down a bit - the urgency is there in the text, no need to tout it up top! I have to agree here.

Dinolfo Sr. Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:14:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=5923#comment-1161 Your heading about people with celiac disease slowly dying is TERRIBLE. Familys have enough to deal with without propaganda like that being a headline. There are much better ways to make your point where you don`t have to cause any additional stress with sensationalism like that. You should be ashamed of yourself. By the way, aren`t we ALL dying slowly ?? Salvatore J. Dinolfo Sr.,  Grandparent of a child celiac. Your heading about people with celiac disease slowly dying is TERRIBLE.
