(and ELI10 too): is gluten pro inflammatory?

1.51K views

So, I tried asking it in askscience and my post got deleted, so I’m assuming this is a dumb question even though I’m just trying to understand a topic full of pseudoscience and it’s not a very uncommon assumption that gluten is just bad for health.
What I know is gluten can induce inflammatory response but for those who already have intolerance or allergy to it, but I’m not sure and nutrition is a very hard thing to get an answer for because there are a lot of misleading information. So, can anyone clarify this for me? I’ll gladly read some scientific articles too.
Thanks!

Wheat crops in North America and elsewhere are commonly sprayed with glyphosate. Gluten has been well tolerated by much of the human population for millennia. Can’t say that for glyphosate. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32045792/
