Zonulin is the doorway to leaky gut and impacts a wide range of health conditions from cancer to autoimmune disease to inflammation and food sensitivities.
Find out what is Zonulin, why you shouldn't trust it as a clinical marker of intestinal permeability and alternatives to zonulin testing.
Food sensitivities and related diseases affect at least 100 million people worldwide and cause a wide variety of illnesses ranging from skin rashes and headaches to chronic intestinal diseases. The commonness of food sensitivities has increased by more than 50% in adults and children in recent years
Learn how a little known protein called zonulin can sometimes play a role in a healthy gut and the state of the microbiome.
Prolamins, like gluten, impact gut barrier health in a few ways: zonulin increases intestinal permeability (leaky gut), and gluten can damage gut cells.

Gluten + gallbladder disease - should I go gluten free? 1 ➡️It is estimated more than 60% of individuals with celiac disease develop gallbladder problems. 2 ➡️ a protein in gluten can increase zonulin leading to gaps in the gut barrier. Aka leaky gut. 3 ➡️ strong connection between gluten intolerance and autoimmune thyroid disease. From my clinical + personal experience, most individuals with gallbladder issues do feel better removing gluten from the diet.
When you eat gluten, your body releases a protein called zonulin which can create holes in the gut wall. Things that shouldn’t slip through the gut wall do, creating an immune response and inflammation throughout the body. As these particles lodge in distant tissues such as the joints, the body attacks them, creating symptoms such as joint pain. To learn more about how gluten can create problems, check out my new article.
An estimated 1% of the global population have been diagnosed with celiac disease and about 20% has non-celiac gluten sensitivity. For everyone else, it is not essential to avoid gluten. However, gluten can trigger the release of Zonulin, a protein that signals your intestinal wall to become porous. The body has its own mechanisms which heal the leaky gut over a few hours however, over time, this healing mechanism can become defective if excessive amounts of gluten are being consumed.
