Summary

The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to investigate the effect of expectancy related to gluten consumption versus actual gluten intake on overall GI symptoms in individuals with non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS)

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* what is the effect of consumer expectancy, related to either gluten-containing or gluten-free oat bread, on short-term (within 8 hours) overall GI symptoms in individuals with NCGS?
* what is the effect of actual gluten intake on short-term (within 8 hours) overall GI symptoms in individuals with NCGS

Participants will be randomised into four groups:

1. Participants with the expectation of receiving gluten-containing bread and actually receiving gluten-containing oat bread during the test day. (E+ G+)
2. Participants with the expectation of receiving gluten-containing bread, but actually receiving gluten-free oat bread during the test day. (E+ G-)
3. Participants with the expectation of receiving gluten-free bread but actually receiving gluten-containing oat bread during the test day. (E- G+)
4. Participants with the expectation of receiving gluten-free bread and actually receiving gluten-free oat bread during the test day. (E- G-)
