This is fascinating for me for a few reasons. I have family members who suffer from gluten intolerance (not full blown Celiacs where a a few µg of gluten causes problems, but pretty bad).
It's a long journal article, and I haven't read the whole thing in detail (and probably won't). A good portion of it is outlining correlations between the use of glyphosate and the prevalence of Celiac's and intestinal infection rates. There's a lot there, and while it's enough to raise suspicion, it's not damning evidence as far as I'm concerned. Definitely worth looking into further.
The other thing that jumps out at me as interesting are the authors: Anthony Samsel is listed as Independent Scientist and Consultant, and Stephanie Seneff is associated with CSAIL at MIT; not a typical group to be writing toxicology journal articles!
My take away: I hope that this research encourages more discussion and research, but I don't think I want people making policy decisions based on it.
