Can a pill simulate "gluten-free"? The problem with gluten (if there is one, after all we are not  all suffering from coeliac disease) is that its proline-peptides cannot be digested by any of the enzymes in the human intestinal tract. Therefore, the long proline-rich gluten peptides reach the small intestine intact after ingestion where they are the driving motors of coeliac disease in 1% of the population, in whom the specific amino acid sequences of such poorly digested proline-rich gluten peptides triggers an abnormal immune response. More recently, though, studies have shown that less pronounced adverse reactions to gluten consumption can occur even in subjects who don't suffer from coeliac disease. As Salden et al. point out, "[p]resently non-coeliac gluten sensitivity has been clinically recognised as a separate condition in which neither allergic nor autoimmune mechanisms are involved" (Salden. 2015). Accordingly, the results of the latest study f...
