This is a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of coeliac disease with the millions of viewers who watch This Morning.  It is a really important part of the campaigning work we do, and last time Dr Chris featured coeliac disease on the programme, a lady got in touch to say that as a result of watching the programme, she went to her GPGeneral Practitioner, or local doctor and got diagnosed with coeliac disease.
