Gluten has always been a huge part of diet so how come people are now intolerant? Is it just a trend? Were people always intolerant but there was no other option? Or has gluten changed though breeding?
Is it possible that people have made themselves more intolerant by excluding gluten from their diet thus losing the ability to digest it?

Also, gluten has not always been a part of diet. It’s a fairly recent thing. People have been using gluten products for about only the last 10,000 years out of the 300,000 years we’ve been around.
I have a wheat allergy (and allergy to dairy and soy, amongst other non-food allergies). When I was young, I would get these horrible eczema breakouts and scratch my skin off until it bled. Now I avoid the stuff. For life.

Apparently gluten has not always been a huge part of the diet. Investigate why it is that the French have virtually no cases of gluten sensitivity. Follow the dough! Pun intended!!

I think clinical diagnosis and recognizing the issue has just gotten better. And the modern industrial changes to how we process wheat/bread.
As a kid I didn’t like pasta or white bread and felt sick and bloated when my family would force me to eat it. I was taken to a GI specialist who asked me to go gluten free to see if it helped, which it did, but still only diagnosed me with IBS. It wasn’t until I was 30 that I saw a different specialist that did antibody testing and found that I was having an allergic reaction to gluten.
