Maddy Renne says she can eat bread, pasta, and gelato in Europe without the bloating she experiences back home in the U.S., and her before-and-after videos have left thousands wondering why.

But experts told Bored Panda that the difference may have less to do with European ingredients than Maddy realizes, and that her dramatic transformation is more complicated than a simple “U.S. vs. Europe” food divide.
