The rise in gluten allergies is what jumps to my mind. I've heard a lot of people deny they exist though. And I'm sure other people will claim they are attributed to different factors.
A lot of people with gluten allergies can eat older strains of wheat that haven't changed since the early half of the century. The theory is that these are strains from before GMO time and were also not subjected to heavy selective breeding over the past century (of course it would have been selectively bred since the dawn of the fertile crescent 13,000 years or so ago).
- splawn 11y agoA rise in gluten allergies? This is news to me. Is there anything published that you can cite?

- splawn 11y agoHow is that evidence that GMO's are toxic? It doesn't mention GMO's at all. I guess I am supposed to just speculate? "connect the dots" as Jesse Ventura would say? Edit: I gave you an upvote tho, because you did go thru the trouble of finding a link. (Even if it missed the full context of the thread, imo)
