[quote=Anonymous]While no doubt there are some fakers, I think one of the other things that happens is that people are advised to start GF diets when they are diagnosed with auto-immune disorders because there is mounting evidence it may help (Celiac is an AID, after all). But in general the success of getting adults to change their diets for health reasons is low. (Ask my dad, a cardiologist, about his success rate getting his patients to switch to low-cholesterol diets after having a heart attack.) As an example, my SIL was recently diagnosed with MS and told that it might help her to go GF. She tries, but doesn't always take it seriously because it's really f'in' hard!! I have an AID, and I do take my GF diet seriously. It has helped a lot with keeping my disease under control. What would help even more is more clinical studies, of which there are very few: https://academic.oup.com/nutritionreviews/article/75/12/1046/4675264[/quote]
