If you’ve been to a restaurant in the last few years, you’ve likely seen the words gluten-free written somewhere on the menu. But what exactly is gluten, and why can’t some people process it? And why does it only seem to be a problem recently? William D. Chey unravels the facts behind celiac disease, wheat allergies and non-celiac gluten sensitivity.

    When you eat something loaded with sugar, your taste buds, your gut and your brain all take notice.

Nicole Avena explains why sweets and treats should be enjoyed in moderation.
