Interesting Wall Street Journal Article

I have read several articles in which the media seems to correlate a gluten-free diet with superior athletic performance.  I'm not sure if they are right or not, but I do feel that people who have celiac disease and then go gluten-free will most likely have less fatigue and greater stamina as athletes.  This is how the article begins:

"How did Novak Djokovic conquer the tennis world?

"Maybe the answer is as simple as this: Since last year, he's swearing off pasta, pizza, beer, French bread, Corn Flakes, pretzels, empanadas, Mallomars and Twizzlers—anything with gluten."

Here is the link to the article:
