Gluten free is not likely to help much unless you have celiac disease. If you are concerned about this you might ask your doctor for a blood test. If the test is positive then you likely need to have a endoscopy to take a biopsy to confirm the findings.

One of the primary foods that is eliminated in celiac disease is wheat because of its gluten content. However, there is a fair amount of research to show the some components in wheat other than gluten can exacerbate IBS symptoms. You might try restricting your consumption of wheat to about the equivalent amount of two thin slices of bread per day and see if that works for you.
