A member asked:
Would one with wheat intolerance (not celiac) need to go completely gluten free or could they benefit by just reducing or eliminating wheat from diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Everyone is a little different, but generally gluten can cause problems even in very small amounts, so either totally eliminate wheat as well as other gluten containing grains or do not bother. Sometimes people can just have food sensitivity without gluten sensitivity.
