but I think that it's best if people 'listen to their bodies' as regards what they eat. People may for various reasons find some foods more conducive to their well-being than others. I'm not sure that this is best put into a neat little box of 'X intolerance'; but I think people's dietary preferences should, where possible, be respected.

I have Crohn's disease, and find that dietary management, chosen by trial and error, helps me to stay on a low dosage of medication. I don't have any gluten intolerance, real or assumed; but I do find that many (not all) high-fibre foods are indigestible for me, and thus make me feel unwell.
