People who have celiac disease can't tolerate gluten to varying degrees. There are also a bunch of folks who have created anti-gluten fad diets claiming all sorts of silly unprovable things about the horrors of gluten, just like there are plenty of other nonscientific BS diets out there. My understanding is that there is no valid data that supports any of the anti-gluten propaganda out there other than the celiac disease issue...just the same old bogus stuff that we see about vitamins and every other fad diet.
