08/03/2019 //  by Michelle Berridale Johnson//  Leave a Comment

Those of you who watched Channel 5's Secrets of the Supermarkets last night  will no doubt, like Alex Gazzola, be fuming this morning.... Alex was so cross with Chris Young, the Real Bread Campaign's spokesman who appeared on the programme, that he had already leapt into print on …

A ‘gluten-free scam’, the ensuing rants and terminological confusion

08/11/2013 //  by Michelle Berridale Johnson//  8 Comments

Julia Llewellyn Smith has caused a predictable storm with her article in yesterday's  Telegraph, The Great Gluten-free Scam. In essence she is saying (backed by coeliac nutritionist, Ian Marber) that gluten is being demonised. It is not the cause of every ill from which you …

Gluten-free food on prescription – again…

20/02/2013 //  by Michelle Berridale Johnson//  1 Comment

The cost of freefrom food

'As you can see, this is a picture of a FreeFrom pizza purchased from my local Sainsbury's. My name is Jasmine and I was diagnosed with Coeliac disease when I was three and a half years of age. I am now 19, live alone and am on a low but liveable income. My concern is that …
