It's important to note that this article discusses specifically Celiac Disease and not Guten Intollerance. Failure to distinguish between the two has created a lot of confusion around the subject. For instance: some people believe that it is black or white: a person is either a) a are celiac, or b) deluding themselves into following a fad diet. This is not the case. A person can be gluten intolerant without necessarily experiencing auto-immune reactions to it. Many people see drastic health benefits by excluding gluten from their diets even though these people are not celiacs. Aside from the anecdotal evidence I, as a non-celiac, could offer about how life changing it was for me personally to cut out gluten about two years ago, here's a recent study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22825366 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22825366 and write up: http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenintolerance/a/Gluten-Intolerance-Research.htm http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenintolerance/a/Gluten...
