I don't know what his credentials or his sources are, but I can give you
some sources on it.  Just do a search for celiac disease prior to 1966, in
any of the medical literature. Most of the experts claimed that kids grew
out of celiac disease (1,2,3). Other intolerances are likely the same way.
 
The concept of the symptoms changing as the person develops, is best
supported by the seminal work done on adaptation to stress by Hans Selye, a
Canadian researcher who published in the 1930's and his work in that area is
still widely accepted.
