More knowledge, awareness, and education about GRDs
With our nutritional expertise, we lay the foundation for evidence-based advice and therapy.

The Dr. Schär Institute's mission is to deepen expertise, raise awareness, and strengthen education in this area long term.
Strengthening and promoting healthy dietary choices

Bundled expertise for gluten- and grain-related disorders
We provide comprehensive knowledge on GRDs for doctors and dietitians-from celiac disease diagnostics and differentiation from wheat allergy, gluten/wheat sensitivity, and irritable bowel syndrome, to evidence-based medical nutrition therapy options such as the low FODMAP and gluten-free diets. Our healthcare professional portal offers the latest research, practical resources, training opportunities, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
Interdisciplinary networking and collaboration
We connect registered dietitians, patient groups, and key opinion leaders to drive awareness and education on GRDs.
