Interesting video summary of recent results on celiac disease. The doctor proposes that we start screening for celiac disease much like we screen for high cholesterol.
I don't know why celiac disease is more prevalent, but I suspect it has something to do with the 'food-like chemicals' that make up so much of our diet. For further reading I recommend two books, "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan and "The End of Overeating" by Dr. David Kessler. The food processing industry is not your friend; think big tobacco.

It's great that celiac disease is receiving so much attention in the scientific community - so much more is known now than 12 years ago when I was diagnosed.
Interesting stuff. My sister in law has celiacs, I will pass it along :)
