That does seem to be true. However, the golden age of Islam was between the 7th and the 11th centuries, and they didn't have potatoes, but they did have gluten-rich grains. That was while Europe was mucking about in its own dung, relatively speaking.

I also look to the advanced civilizations of the Greeks and the Romans, which were based on gluten-rich grains, and berift of potatoes.

I'm not familiar with lists of gluten-intolerant famous and/or prominent individuals, perhaps you have a source you can direct me to.
