#Gluten

A new study is shaking up popular beliefs about gluten and digestive health, suggesting that millions of people—including those in Thailand—may be wrongly blaming this common protein for their stomach issues. The research, conducted by a team at McMaster University in Canada and published recently in The Lancet Gastroenterology and Hepatology, found that gluten is not as universally harmful for people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as commonly thought, and that psychological expectations could play a major role in triggering symptoms (Gizmodo).
