Diagnosis is made based on the response to a gluten-free diet, after celiac disease and wheat allergy have been ruled out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-article__body\">\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--article\">\n<div>\n<p>There is a group of patients who react\u00a0 to the consumption of food containing gluten with symptoms such as abdominal pain, fatigue, headaches, rashes, or mental confusion (&#8220;foggy mind&#8221;). However, neither celiac disease nor wheat allergy is present in these instances. When these patients avoid gluten, their symptoms improve within a few weeks; when they are re-exposed to gluten the symptoms return. Whether the gluten or some other component of wheat is actually responsible for the reactions is currently the subject of debate in the scientific community. The focus is not just on gluten, it also includes amylase trypsin inhibitors (ATI) and\u00a0<strong>FODMAPs<\/strong>. For this reason, some experts in this field may refer to NCGS more broadly as non-celiac wheat sensitivity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--article\">\n<div>\n<h3>Comparative differences with to celiac disease and wheat allergy<\/h3>\n<p>All three gluten-related disorders &#8211; NCGS, celiac disease and wheat allergy &#8211; have similar symptoms and\u00a0 therefore diagnosis can be difficult. However, there are differences, e.g. in terms of reaction times and pathogenesis.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drschaer.com\/us\/dsi\/a\/definition-celiac-disease\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Celiac disease<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is an autoimmune enteropathy caused by gluten.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drschaer.com\/us\/dsi\/a\/wheat-allergy-definition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Wheat allergy<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is an IgE-mediated response to wheat. Although people with NCGS develop symptoms similar to those observed in celiac disease after eating food containing gluten, the clinical presentation is generally less severe. However, in contrast to celiac disease, NCGS individuals usually do not present with\u00a0 auto-antibodies, anti-tissue-transglutaminases or autoimmune concomitant diseases. In contrast to celiac disease patients, patients with NCGS exhibit little histological change or only lesions in the small intestine mucosa, which corresponds to 0 &#8211; 1 on the Marsh scale.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis laore nostrud exerci tation ulm hedi corper turet  ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.
