When I was growing up, there was no such thing as lactose-intolerant, glucose-intolerant, etc. It may seem strange now but there was a time when you could bring peanut butter sandwiches to school. If, back in 1972 when I was in fourth grade, I told my classroom that I was allergic to peanut butter, the entire class would laugh at me - including the teachers who would tell me "not to be silly and eat my sandwich."
We evolved (or were created) to eat veggies, fruits, meat, and eggs. Processed grains are a rather late addition to our diets, being introduced in just the last few thousand years. It would not be surprising that our bodies don’t handle grains as well as other foods.

I could have written your post myself, word for word. I don’t get it either. My personal opinion is it’s just another symptom of the prideful, “it’s all about me” society we have become. Everyone’s looking within to the point of obsession; not so many look up to the Creator!
I’m sure I’ll get flamed for that but NOT ONE OF THEM has ever rigorously explained precisely why, after five thousand years of wheat, barley, etc as dietary staples, it’s just in the past 20 years that the poor victims are suffering and demand special accommodation everywhere they go (including the Holy Communion table).
I read about lactose-intolerance in the mid-70's. It was written about back then.
