All told, gluten-free diets look like yet another passing fad. Once the craze fades, something else will take its place, because the popularity of such diets has more to do with our psychology than our physiology. We have a tendency to copy high-status individuals, we are prone to magical thinking (such as the notion that one ingredient is the cause of all our woes), and often assume that what is natural is inherently good (the palaeo human diet probably did not include many grains). The appeal of gluten-free has drawn strength from all three.
