The problem is that gluten is added to almost every processed food that people eat. If you will check food labels you will find it, not always stated as "gluten", but coded as well. This causes huge overloads of wheat gluten in the diet of the majority of people in the US.
I think it is this overload, just like the overload of sweeteners that causes most people problems.
If you cut out processed foods you will cut your health problems out as well. IMHO.
