I'm amazed at how many people would "strongly discourage" people from deciding to stop eating gluten as if this will have some sort of horrible affect on their health if they haven't been diagnosed with a problem. Whether gluten is having a negative affect on someone's health, or not, there will certainly not be any adverse health affects from cutting out gluten from one's diet. Humans fed themselves for thousands of years on a diet free of gluten. If anything the fad diet is the introduction of gluten into almost every food you find in the supermarket. Why do you think there are so many people intolerant of it? Evolution has not yet gotten us to a place where we can all properly digest certain things. Our diets shouldn't change from what it was thousands of years ago just because of events like the Industrial Revolution and Agriculture.
