I can tell you there have also been a lot of foods that have silently gone gluten-free over the years, along with trying to minimize their use of the other major allergens.
Good find!
But as have been indicated here http://www.bbc.com/news/health-35727244 http://www.bbc.com/news/health-35727244 , this may be counterproductive.
- blairanderson 11y agoYou're conflating disease and allergy.
- Ensorceled 11y agoDisease, allergy and sensitivity. My friend has celiac, my co-worker is mildly allergic to wheat, I'm sensitive to gluten. Too much gluten makes me gassy so I avoid large quantities, but that's pretty much it. My co-worker breaks out in hives. My friend is in for a world of hurt.
- jerf 11y agoPossibly so. My gluten sensitivity is worse than my father's. Why? Environment? Different genes having slightly different effects? Heck if I know. But at this point in my life, it also no longer matters for me. It is certainly the case that I must avoid gluten now. And, alas, to the extent that it matters for my children, they're almost certainly also going to be biologically-grown-up before we have any solid answers either. In the meantime I just do my best for them.
- rhodysurf 11y agoThat is not how Celiac works. It is an Auto-Immune Disease
- eveningcoffee 11y agoThis is not about Celiac but about larger trend. Somewhat similar to mass usage of antibiotics.
