Colleagues, a member of the Nutrition in Complementary Care Dietetic

Practice Group of the American Dietetic Associationn has just noted that

Quackwatch lists this DPG among " Questionable Organizations. "

Surely ADA should not allow one of its practice groups to be publicly

named a " questionable organization. " I trust this will be addressed by

officers of the American Dietetic Association.
