The actual "cause" of Allergies is one of those mysterious subjects. People can have allergies to all kinds of things and there doesn't seem to be any particular reason other than a common familial tendency toward allergies. Family members don't often share the same allergies, but they share a TENDENCY toward allergies. The mother might be allergic to nuts and the daughter might be allergic to eggs. Allergy to gluten is usually specific to the type of grain, often wheat gluten. You might be able to tolerate other grains, like rye, oat or rice. Often these types of food alergies can subside after several years. Good luck.
Note: People often speak of a "gluten allergy" when they mean either a wheat allergy or celiac disease, which is not an allergy - it is an autoimmune reaction to a family of grains including wheat, barley, rye, spelt, kamut, and triticale.
People who suffer from gluten allergies have to stay away from wheat products to avoid allergiv reactions ranging from Asthma lile symptoms to anaphylaxis.
It can be celiac disease, which is an allergy to gluten. http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/celiac/
