TED-Ed: What's the big deal with gluten? - William D. Chey

The video explores gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley, and its role in food. It discusses gluten-related disorders like wheat allergy, celiac disease, and non-celiac gluten sensitivity, highlighting symptoms and treatments. The video also examines the causes of gluten sensitivity, including immune responses and the nocebo effect, and suggests that some issues may be due to fructans rather than gluten itself.
