Leaky Gut in Layman's Terms

I was recently interviewed by Leaky Gut expert, Karen Brimeyer. We
discussed the ins and outs of this intestinal affliction in an easy to
understand manner.

Multiple research studies have linked gluten to the condition known as
intestinal permeability - I recently had the privilege of speaking with
one of the leading gluten sensitivity researchers in the world, Dr.
Alessio Fasano. He is the head of research at the University of Maryland
Celiac Research Center, and he is responsible for discovering the
gluten/leaky gut connection.

In this video, we discuss how this condition can affect the gut, the brain, and
multiple other tissues in the body...

Most people assume that celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are the same
thing. Fortunately, this archaic thought is rapidly changing as new
research has proven that gluten sensitivity exists independently of
celiac disease. Although it is well established that gluten often
impacts the villi of the small intestine, it has also been shown to
affect the body in multiple ways. These differences account for the
massive failure of doctors to diagnose gluten sensitivity. Below is a
diagram of environmental triggers to intestinal permeability (leaky
gut). You will find that gluten sensitivity can directly and indirectly
contribute to this problem. To the intelligent observer, this picture
illustrates why simple antibody testing fails to accurately diagnosis
gluten sensitivity. Antibody production is only one lab component of a
multi-faceted problem.
