From the AMSSM: Gluten Sensitivity- Fact or Fad?

AMSSM Podcast host Dr. Krystian Bigosinski is joined by Dr. Alessio Fasano, the W. Allan Walker Chair in Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition and Director of the Center for Celiac Research and Treatment at Massachusetts General Hospital, as well as Dana Lis, RD, PhD, owner of Summit Sports Nutrition in Vancouver, British Columbia. Topics of conversation include the definition of gluten and FODMAPs and their potential role in leading to both gastrointestinal and constitutional symptoms in athletes, a practical diagnostic approach to evaluate an athlete manifesting GI symptoms, recognition of the spectrum of disease from gluten sensitivity to true celiac disease, when to consider initiating a restrictive diet and subsequently how to reintroduce foods, and the potential risks of athletes restricting their diets without a formal pathological diagnosis.
