A member asked:
Is there rly a 'spectrum' of gluten intolerance 4 folks without celiac's? what r the scientifically proven effects of eating gluten for average prsn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genetics: Possessing certain genetic mix is associated with a high risk for gluten intolerance. There is no proof that genetically altered wheat is any different in term of the gluten issue. There is no scientific proof that eating gluten adversely affects one's health unless one has the intolerance issue.
