Gut health is absolutely linked to mental health. Besides actual scientific research that backs this up, I didn’t really get my mental health under control until I took care of my gut issues like IBS and stuff. Also avoiding certain foods, not gluten obviously that’s a crock of shit, but things that obviously don’t work with my body like cream sauces or whatever

Celiac disease [1] is a real and potential serious autoimmune disorder. Whether non-celiac gluten intolerance is a real thing is another question, though there's some evidence for it.
Probiotic foods, plenty of water and movement have been key factors there.
Article is about cells in the gut that we barely knew anything about, due to stomach acid and bile making it hard to identify their genetic material. Some researchers are making progress in this area and it's amazing.
There was a breakthrough in studying the gut biome about a decade ago. Since then we have started to learn so much.

yogis were right
One of the things being studied is the involuntary contractions that move food through the gut.
Breaking down food requires coordination across dozens of cell types and many tissues — from muscle cells and immune cells to blood and lymphatic vessels. Heading this effort is the gut’s very own network of nerve cells, known as the enteric nervous system... One of the things being studied is the involuntary contractions that move food through the gut.

What was the breakthrough and what have we learned? I'm interested in reading more about this

Celiac is real, but very rare. I think GP was referring to gluten intolerance where there’s not much evidence to support it.
Non-celiac gluten sensitivity is not believed to be fictional-- rather, experts disagree about the details of what it is, how it works, how it is identified, how we should classify different presentations, etc. So yes, the science is shaky, but there is plenty of evidence that it's "a thing"... or "some things".
