Check glyphosate as well. The stuff can wreak havoc in the gut, which leads to inflammation. Sometimes it’s not the gluten.

@Davey Morgan thanks. It explains, at least anecdotally, why many of my friends state that when visiting many European countries, many of their digestive issues go away.
The science seems to suggest glyphosate destroys gut bacteria. Follow the money!!!!
What a pity this is a short video for such an important subject
They are telling us to listen to the full episode so there must be a link there to access the video. And yes, it is extremely important, sensitivity or allergic to gluten could cause harm to any organ(s) or system(s) in the body. It could affect your sight, your hair, your muscle mass, skin, *teeth! It could make you suffer from anxiety and or depression, it could destroy your digestion because you might not produce all the collagen you need to protect the lining of your gut and, for the same reason it could affect other functions in the body. And….. etc. I can tell you that it can cause an unimaginable thing like becoming sensible to veggies – that is my favorite food- it happened to me. It caused that my teeth became weak and that the body could not produce and use enough dentine . They break, not get bacteria and blah , blah, no. Not enough production and utilization of dentine and the enamel that looks perfectly well, breaks too when the dentine gives away. Yet, enamel is heathy. It simply fracture. That I can say because it’s me the one finding my sensitivity, not the doctors and I took notes of the strange things that were happening to me apart from my nightmare with digestion. This took years and years until I was suddenly hit by the thought that I am sensible to gluten. The thought just hit me. And yes, I am sensible. Now doctors agree. It is something to take more than seriously.
@Myraida Diaz Thanks for your help and comments.
