Wheat and gluten are not the problem

See this article which provides the real sources of the problem. An excerpt:

"There is a huge misunderstanding that bread and gluten make people sick. This need not be true except for the small percentage of people with celiac disease. What makes people sick is what humans have done to bread and gluten. As the title of my blog, What’s Up with Wheat?, suggests, I’ve been working to identify what’s happening to a food that was once known as the staff of life. One thing I know for sure is that we can’t point to just one reason. Through years of research and farming I’ve come to understand that, in fact, there are many reasons, a constellation of farming, milling and baking practices, that cause people to feel sick after eating wheat products. Yet this need not be the case.  We can once again have good, healthy bread though proper farming, milling and baking practices."
