@expatpaul @zoowar Some time ago I saw a video by a medicine expert famous on YouTube who explains complex facts quite easily. He told that most of the gluten intolerance numbers is just based on one study which is very inaccurate due to the number of participants. So, hypochondria might be a very reasonable cause. Furthermore it's a huge market for selling special products.

@vinzv Yes, you have to be careful with these things. More reporting doesn't necessarily mean more cases /cc @zoowar

@vinzv And the marketing is a good point - there will always be someone trying to exploit people's fears and concerns /cc @zoowar
