Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) affect principally the gut, causing symptoms that alter intestinal motility, with a multifactorial etiology. The pharmacological and nutritional treatment varies according to the symptoms and activity of each patient. The most commonly used
Low microbial diversity in the intestine correlates with chronic diseases such as Inflammatory Bowel diseases, colorectal cancer, obesity, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and more. The incidence of chronic diseases is greater in the industrialized society consuming a diet low in
The presence of low grade intestinal inflammation has been reported in Fibromyalgia (FM) patients. Other studies associate the persistence of symptoms described in FM to possible alterations of the intestinal microbiota composition, i.e. dysbiosis, with consequent existence of Small Intestinal

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disease (GI) affecting 10% -20% of the population and is composed of abdominal pain/discomfort, in combination with alterations of the stool habit. This is a functional disorder prevalent in Italy with double percentages in urban areas
There is now substantial evidence that industrialization has resulted in substantial decrease in the bacterial diversity of the gut microbiota (Segata, 2015), likely due to a combination of factors such as use of antibiotics, modern clinical practices, sanitation, and change in dietary habits.
Recurrent gastrointestinal symptoms (bloating, constipation, abdominal pain, diarrhea and flatulence) often interfere with patients' quality of life (QoL) and daily activities. These symptoms have been noted in various diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), celiac disease (CD) and

Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a condition where intestinal and extraintestinal symptoms are triggered by gluten ingestion in the absence of celiac disease and wheat allergy. Despite the great interest in NCGS, much remains unknown about the pathogenesis. Some studies seem to suggest that
Recently it has been reported that a consistent percentage of the general population consider themselves to be suffering from problems caused by wheat and/or gluten ingestion, even though they do not have celiac disease or wheat allergy. This clinical condition has been named Non-Celiac Gluten
