 It has also been shown that gluten free diets can adversely affect your gut flora (or bacterial intestinal health) if you don’t have celiac disease.<sup>[19]</sup> A month on a gluten free diet can drastically decrease numbers of healthy gut bacteria and increase numbers of unhealthy bacteria in your intestines. This imbalance of gut flora can lead to chronic constipation, bloating, diarrhea, irritable bowel disease, and anemia.<sup>[19]</sup>

+====== Conclusion ======
+<style justify>
+Celiac disease is a very rare disease with no cure and with several symptoms and negative long term implications. The only management for these individuals are gluten-free diets and unfortunately, the media has exploited the use of these diets to make a large market and profit.
+Ultimately, unless someone has celiac disease or a wheat allergy, there’s no reason to really adopt this diet. It has been shown that to the general population, adopting gluten-free diets may be detrimental to one’s health. Gluten is widely misunderstood, naturally occurring wheat protein, but fad diets exploit peoples’ imaginative tendencies to demonize what they don’t understand.
