They allow most people to eat gluten without any problems, I think.
With respect ortho. (I'm thinking maybe you are very new to the celiac world... and we've all been there, so this is not criticism of your comment at all... however....) making comments like that without the facts may lead some people to think they can eat gluten safely, when in truth, it is a statement not based on fact. I do realize that you said, "I think" but people who are desperate to avoid a gf diet may hold on to the first part of your sentence and let the rest go.

If they had found a magic pill like that, it would be common knowledge because the marketing would go through the roof and celiacs everywhere would be demanding a large supply of it.

It would also be covered by health insurance.

If it would be a big money maker but is still not being widely used or marketed, then the only reason is because it doesn't really work. One thing we all know is that if pharmaceutical companies can figure out a way to make a buck, then they will.
