Is Maintaining a Gluten-Free Diet Difficult?
Harvard University's study
To give an idea of how stressful a gluten-free lifestyle can be, researchers at Harvard University performed a study involving celiac sufferers, as well as various other groups of people that suffered from other chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease, to name a few. The subjects were told to answer a questionnaire about their disease and the lifestyle they needed to follow in order to stay healthy.
