Here is another example of "what came first chicken or the egg" Does gene alteration causing prevalence of celiac disease occur from eating too much wheat or is it hereditary? How about a little of both. I tend to believe it is more dietary consumption especially with the presumed genetic link with Type II Diabetes other immune system disorders.
The study also shows that there is substantial evidence to indicate a shared risk between the gene associated with celiac disease and many other common chronic immune mediated diseases. Previously Professor van Heel had identified an overlap between celiac disease and type 1 diabetes risk regions, as well as celiac disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
Modern man eats grains, Paleolithic man did not. Western cultures have the lion share of celiac disease most likely because they eat excessive amounts of processed foods. Add in the "fat is bad" scenario and it's a wonder the whole Continent isn't Dis-eased!
Of the 3 MacroNutrients-Protein, Fat, and Carbs-the body can make Carbs from the other two macros. Carbohydrates have limited storage space, the other two obviously do not. Ergo, don't eat so many carbs and you will feel better.
No additional research necessary.
