There might be something to this. I have a container of an herbicide in the basement that contains glycophosate. Interesting that Roundup has less of it, but also has another ingredient that is perhaps synergistic with glycophosate. The chemical interferes with a key enzyme that allows plants to grow.
Research on skeletons from the last 10,000 years have show that as man moved from hunter gather society to agriculture, all the modern diseases began to show up in the remains, and for a while human stature dropped an average of 6 inches, so perhaps the effect of glycophosate is in addition to gluten sensitivity. Supposedly only about 25% of the human population is fully adapted to ingestion of wheat.
