(12,655 posts)but i don't necessarily trust these 37 cases to say anything important either. and the media does tend to sensationalize things.
but for the many people who have celiac and non celiac sensitivity (and yes, i believe it exists), no study will change for them what they already know. i just hope THIS study does not get sensationalized to the point that people who might do better without gluten will just not bother. and although many, esp celebrities, want to jump on the latest "fad," we all have a right to eat and to avoid what works best for us and there are many many people for whom a gf diet is very beneficial, whether or not they have true celiac. marketing people will do what they do and try to convince otherwise, but when you have been attacked by your own body, you tend to get good at ignoring the marketing hype.
and i once had a dr say that symptoms trump blood tests. so if someone believes they have an allergy or sensitivity, best that they respect what their body says.
