Coincidentally I'm reading Red Roulette by Desmond Shum. His wife is in a similar state than Peng Shuai.
Here's an innovative one. I got an sms impersonating my cell phone provider telling me they're going to change my plan.
They'd decided which one is the best for me but I have until next month to chose one 'of the new plans' clicking on a bit.ly link. That links points to an Amazon affiliated link, and it's totally unrelated to my provider.

I really don't understand how some companies are getting off scot-free.
Here's the book in Spanish https://archive.org/details/latelegrafiarapida.eltritecladoy... and this is a homage to his work in 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFZk6WrbOKw
The current Chef's plan is not to harvest it from the sea but cultivate it on land.
To anyone wanting to learn about FODMAPs, Monash University blog (1) helps to understand this very complex topic.
Thank you for answering anyway. Your comment helps me to see why my post could be seen as not well intentioned.
About gluten, in my case I found out that it wasn't the problem but fructans.
Identifying the triggers, and keeping an eye on quantity are the keys for me. It isn't an easy process but it makes a world of difference as you say.
> It's likely whatever was wrong with me was brewing for awhile, and just triggered into something severe when something pushed it over the edge.
I can't back it up with any evidence but my feeling is that a combo of stress and too healthy food (for me) triggered my gut crisis.
What I mean is that I started to eat food that was too rich in GOS, and also fructose, just before my problems started.
It was antibiotics for x days, I don't remember how many, and then pre and probiotics for x days. Rinse and repeat.
It didn't work.
I only can speak for myself but the FODMAP diet is the only relief I've had experienced in ten years, and for the first time (pardon my french) my shit is not watery.
P.S. I agree science has a lot to learn about this topic.
There isn't any magic pill yet but until someone invents it I can tell you I've found great comfort following the FODMAP diet.
I've wasted ten horrible years until I discovered that Monash University diet.
Ten years of pain and expending.
Hoping it can help you as well https://www.monashfodmap.com/
I got the full experience: endoscopy, colonoscopy, allergies (skin tests), celiac test, lactose test, fructose test, etc.
Probably your wife knows about it but just in case, I've found a great relief in the low fodmap diet by Monash University.
