Gluten-free wheat could become a reality.
A group of farmers and a wheat company based in Kansas are working on the project.
They are trying to identify the parts of the wheat DNA that trigger celiac disease. The goal is to eliminate the allergen in gluten.
The move could potentially be life-changing for people with celiac.
Researchers hope to have a product on the shelves within the next 10 to 15 years.
Another reason to quit
Children exposed to smoking may have a higher risk of developing heart disease when they become adults.
Research shows plaque buildup could harden the arteries.
The risk is almost two times higher for children who grew up with one or two smokers.
No light shoes running
Health experts are advising runners that a recent trend of barefoot running and light shoes could lead to injuries.
A study shows the human foot can adapt to shoe changes over time.
But that is a problem because feet need time to get used a light-weight pair of running shoes. The length of time is difficult to predict.
