Wheat Allergies May Instead Be Allergies to Glyphosate

A SCIENTIFIC literature review by Canadian researchers from the University of British Columbia concludes that “glyphosate may be a critical environmental trigger in the etiology of several disease states, including celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome.”

In the introduction to their study, the scientists said, “The prevalence of digestive disorders has increased globally, as countries have adopted a more ‘Westernised’ diet pattern.

“A Western diet, characterised as high in fat and refined carbohydrates, can also be defined as a product of increased technology and industrialisation.

“Modern farmers rely on agrochemicals to meet the needs of a growing population, and these chemicals have shifted the Western diet’s chemical composition.

“While the number of individuals choosing to live a wheat-free lifestyle without a celiac disease diagnosis has increased, clinical trials have shown that gluten from wheat is not responsible for causing symptoms in healthy individuals suggesting that something else is inducing symptoms.
