    I have heard that the gluten content in bread, a staple for most people, increased about the same time as an increase in the disease and that wheat, with a higher gluten content, was added to get a better bread product. This would be worth a research paper to check if there is a link. I eat bread made with Spelt and sprouted grains and my digestive system seems to be a lot better.
