It would be more likely your friend has gluten intolerance - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatitis_herpetiformis

If this is the case then cutting down on cereals would be standard medical advice rather than a wonder effect of an unsound diet.

I have a few other friends who'd experienced similar improvements in health just by cutting out wheat and the surprisingly many foods containing gluten. For the no-grains guy, this was insufficient.

Grains injure and inflame the gut walls OF EVERONE. A cascade of negative effects follow.

And, yes, those with celiac disease are particularly obviously effected.
