I completely disagree with this statement! I dont have celiacs but I do know that when I consume gluten (or any grains for that matter) I break out in hives. Although, a gluten intolerance is not technically associated with chronic autoimmune urticaria, it still effects me. Does that mean I should still eat my turkey on whole wheat bread instead of a collard green just because I dont have celiacs? Many people who tout the wonders of going without gluten dont even know what gluten is -- and there is little evidence that those who do not have celiac disease (only a small percentage of the population) will benefit from a gluten-free diet. --Katherine Brooking MS, RD, Appetite for Health
