Exposure to Different Amounts of Dietary Gluten in Patients with Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS): An Exploratory Study

Abstract: It is unclear whether patients with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) can tolerate gluten. We have evaluated the changes of both gastrointestinal symptoms and quality of life for NCGS patients after the re-introduction of dietary gluten. Twenty-two NCGS patients reporting functional gastroenterological symptoms and on gluten-free diet (GFD) for the previous three weeks were exposed to incremental gluten-containing diets. Three groups were compared at baseline (immediately after 3-weeks on GFD) and immediate… Show more

“…In people who suffer from gluten-related disorders, these symptoms are frequently associated as a consequence of food restriction, and not as a symptom caused by gluten ingestion [10]. It is noteworthy that our results are similar to the literature in which the NCGS symptoms commonly found include bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, epigastric pain, nausea, aerophagia, lack of well-being, tiredness, headache, foggy mind, and anxiety [5,8,10,14,37].…”

“…Currently, due to the lack of specific biomarkers to diagnose NCGS, its diagnosis involves the elimination of CD and WA, followed by a gluten-free diet (GFD), and then a challenge with gluten-containing food. The exclusion is followed by assessing the reduction/remission of symptoms after a strict adherence to a GFD, and observing if symptoms return or worsen with gluten consumption [2,4,5]. Therefore, the diagnostic criteria for NCGS should include self-reported gluten intolerance, negative CD serology and no WA [1,2,6].…”

“…This activation of innate immunity is dose-dependent and may result in NCGS symptoms in susceptible individuals as well as worsening of other pre-existing inflammatory reactions 2 , 4 . The symptoms of NCGS can be both gastrointestinal (e.g., abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloating) and extra-intestinal (e.g., headache, chronic fatigue, depression) and disappear or improve on a gluten-free diet 5 8 . Apart from ATIs, other components have been discussed to cause NCGS, such as gluten peptides and proteins as well as fermentable oligo-, di- and monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) 9 13 .…”
