Researchers 'Very Close' to Developing Celiac-safe Wheat

I don't think gmo wheat is going to be accepted so what is the point here. Especially if the flour is still unsuitable for bread. Farmers can just switch to growing a different grain for celiacs. Sorry, but I think this is a waste of research money.

Even if they remove the gluten, the addictive gliadin proteins that break down into an opiate remain. It is best to stay away from grains and eat a paleolithic diet.

Hopefully, the gluten-free wheat will be developed without making it just another risky GMO. I get severe stomach pains, and other symptoms, if I eat any of the current GM foods, and there is no reason to believe that I'll be able to tolerate any future ones. I would try non-GM wheat if can be rendered completely gluten-free.

One of the dumbest ideas that I can recall hearing about.

#1. I am opposed to anything GMO and will do everything I can to avoid it as much as possible.

#2. After working so hard to avoid wheat the very last thing I would want to do is reintroduce it into my diet, celiac safe or not!

I sincerely wish that the time and money spent on developing a new strain of wheat would be spent on something medically more important.

What good will gluten-free wheat be? Will the wheat flour be any better than rice flour, or buckwheat flour, or quinoa flour without the gluten in it? I doubt it, but I bet it'll cost a lot more!

Stop doing useless research and find a cure for the disease.

I'd never willingly put this thing in my mouth.

I say why bother. It is gluten that gives bread all its lovliness. Wheat with less/no gluten will produce the same results in bread that we have now with other grains, and that is pretty awful bread...

Why? If it's not good for baking then why not just use other flours?

I know so many that would agree, what my grand kids would give for a decent piece of bread for a sandwich.

Dumbest thing I have ever heard. Quit screwing with the food chain folks!!!!

I'm doubtful about the results but glad someone is taking an interest in the problem. I think Franz 7 grains Gluten Free bread is pretty good. It could be I am starting to finally forget what good bread taste like after 2 years. I guess either works.
