About 1% of the population has been diagnosed with celiac disease, meaning they have trouble digesting gluten, a protein in grains such as wheat, rye, and barley. These components are often found in beer, pasta, and bread. If only 1% of the population has celiac disease, why have so many Americans made the switch?

Gluten intolerance also known as gluten sensitive enteropathy and celiac sprue disease is a genetically linked disorder resulting from an immune reaction to gluten that can affect children and adults. Aretaeus of Cappadocia was the first to have detailed descriptions of the disease in his writings.
