Javier Molina-Infante, Santos Santolaria Piedrafita, Fernando Fernández Bañares
A topical review on "non-celiac gluten-sensitivity" from 2015. It mentions a double-blind placebo-study where 70 people were identified as having NCGS via a wheat-study. And out of those only 30% turned out to have celiac-disease. (page 449)

Gluten is a protein. So going gluten free to reduce carb intake isn't particularly sensible.
