The FDA's proposal for labeling products 'gluten-free' was published on January 23, 2007. The Center for Celiac Research played a major role in establisng the proposed standard of 20 part per million as the acceptable level of gluten allowed for a product to be labeled as 'gluten-free.' The FDA has requested feedback from consumers on several issues relating to the gluten-free diet, and how individuals make choices about gluten-free products.
The American Celiac Disease Alliance (ACDA) is launching a survey focused on several questions posed by the FDA. The survey was developed by dietitians with expertise in the gluten-free diet and who are associated with the Dietitians in Gluten Intolerance Diseases (DIGID), a specialty subunit of the American Dietetic Association.
Please take a few moments to complete this very important survey. The results will be compiled and presented to the FDA by the ACDA.
To access the survey go to the ACDA website www.americanceliac.org/news.htm
Or click here to take the survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=85433223016
Your comments will help the FDA decide what type of GF labeling will be allowed in the United States. The survey closes on March 15, 2007.
