Brief Summary:
The overall hypothesis of this research study is that gluten intake alters intestinal barrier function in patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) diarrhea who also exhibit non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS).
Detailed Description:
The specific aim of this hypothesis-generating, pilot study is to randomize (like the flip of a coin) patients who have Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity to a 4-week Gluten-containing diet (GCD) or to a Gluten free diet (GFD). The study will evaluate small bowel (SB) permeability functionally (2-sugar differential excretion), morphologically, using probe-based confocal laser to evaluate the small intestinal, as well as molecularly, using tight junction (TJ) messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in small bowel mucosa in response to the different diets.
