Re-Genre Assignment

Although this assignment sounds very interesting and will be a nice break from writing essays, I think mine will be very relevant and useful. I wrote my research essay on the diseases and disorders that go along with gluten, and also the why "gluten free" has become the new fad and how a gluten free diet is not as beneficial for those without some type of sensitivity to gluten, as the current media is portraying it to be. Because this is such a new and current topic, I believe that creating a brochure with some easy to read facts and information could be very helpful. Since most will not do the necessary research about gluten before they choose to change their diet. But since a brochure is short and visually appealing, many would be much more inclined to read about the topic. This way they can be educated on the topic and be able to make informed decisions.
And even though most of you reading this are not considering changing your diet to gluten free (although there could be some because it is growing in popularity so quickly), it is still important to know about since it is growing so quickly, and is changing the type of food choices they have avialable at the grocery store and at restaurants. And although I was never considering changing my own diet to gluten free, I have known so many people with celiac disease, or gluten sensitivities, or just gluten free and I was so curious about all of this. So I am glad I choose this as my topic for the essay because I feel like I know so much about the topic now. And if anyone reading this is interested too, you can read my brochure just in case you do not want to read twelve pages on gluten.
