Old professer - before you go spouting off, I will defend my fellow FReeper. Google celiac disease and gluten intolerance. YES it is supported by medical fact!!!
As a parent of a child who cannot eat wheat and who spends nealy 4 times the average grocery bill because of the special dietary needs - it's not because my child needs to feel special. It's because my child needs to LIVE!!!!!
I have seen the pictures from the gastro of the damage to his intestines. I have watched a normally healthy 17 year old lose 30 lbs despite eating healthy meals before being diagnosed.

Heres one to start with! www.celiac.com
If you want to dig into some research it's there including scientific studies that tie specific alleles to the condition.
I don't think anyone here has any need to scientifically demonstrate that this condition exists ~ folks with the condition know all about it, and those without the condition are just lucky.
