TFA clearly doesn't support your re-written straw man headline, and by comparison:

- Kresser: 21 citations to "scientific, unbiased, peer reviewed, modern research"

- NYT OpEd guest writer: naked unsupported assertion that "most of these assertions [about gluten], however, are contradicted by significant evidence" providing no references or scientific discussion

Which one is snake oil again? More ironic, the Kresser article does talk about gluten as an auto-immune trigger, making your dismissal seem even more knee-jerk. There are people doing serious work on nutrition, but you won't have much luck finding them in the NYT, much less the OpEd section.

Well... cod liver oil, actually. And that would be here: http://store.chriskresser.com/

Frankly, I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in either.
