In response to the suggestion that an increase in the incidence of celiac disease might be attributable to an increase in the gluten content of wheat resulting from wheat breeding, a survey of data from the 20th and 21st centuries for the United States was carried out. The results do not support the likelihood that wheat breeding has increased the protein content (proportional to gluten content) of wheat in the United States. Possible roles for changes in the per capita consumption of wheat flour and the use of vital gluten as a food additive are discussed.
针对乳糜泻发病率上升可能归因于小麦育种导致小麦麸质含量增加的说法，对 20 世纪和 21 世纪美国的数据进行了调查。结果不支持小麦育种增加了美国小麦中蛋白质含量（与麸质含量成比例）的可能性。讨论了人均小麦面粉消费量的变化和作为食品添加剂使用活性面筋的可能作用。
