There is a lot of confusion about gluten and IBS. Recently individuals with self-reported non-celiac gluten intolerance were first put on a low FODMAP diet and then pure gluten was introduced. No effects of gluten were found. It is thought that the fructans - a FODMAP - found in wheat is the problematic constituent not gluten. The recommendation is to go on a low FODMAP diet first which is far less onerous than a gluten free diet.

Here are links to a popular article, a scientific article and a podcast on the topic
