It is when the intestinal tract has increased permeability and allows toxins and harmful microorganisms into your bloodstream.

So is it stuff leaking *out* of the digestive tract? Or leaking *into* the tract? And... sorry, I know this is probably answered already.... does leaky gut generally equate to celiac disease? Before I ever heard of celiac disease, I thought to myself "it seems like there's holes in my stomach and the food is leaking out."

Thanks 12bgf for asking this question! It has been on my mind too, but I keep forgetting to ask!

THE DIFINITION GIVEN BY KAITI USA IS GOOD:

It is when the intestinal tract has increased permeability and allows toxins and harmful microorganisms into your bloodstream.

IF YOU TAKE YOUGURT FOR EXAMPLE, THERE IS PONTENTIAL BAD BACTERIA (STREPTOCOCUS) IN IT, BUT SCIENTIST DON'T KNOW WHY THEY DON'T HARM WHEN CONSUMED IN YOGURT.

FOLLOWING THIS EXAMPLE, LET'S FIGURE YOUR G.I. TRACT IS FULL OF GOOD AND POTENTIAL BAD BACTERIA SUCH AS ESCHERIA COLI (E-COLI). WITH A NORMAL GI TRACT THERE IS NO HARM FROM THOSES BAD BACTERIA.

WITH A GUT THAT LEAKS (LEAKY GUT), SMALL PARTICULES OF UNDIGESTED FOOD CROSS YOUR INSTESINE AND GO RIGHT INTO YOUR BLOOD STREAM AND THIS LEADS YOU TO A FOOD ALLERGY. BECAUSE UNDIGESTED FOOD INTO YOUR BLOOD STREAM IS VERRY DANGEROUS AND THAT'S WHY YOUR BODY IS PRODUCING AN IMMUNE REACTION (NEUTRALISE AND ELIMINATE UNDIGESTED FOOD).

NOW, WHAT ABOUT POTENTIAL BAD BACTERIA...LOTS OF BACTERIA IN YOUR GI TRACT TRANSFORM MEAT INTO SUB PRODUCTS FOR YOUR OWN BENEFIT. IF THEY CROSS YOUR INTESTINAL WALL AND GOES INTO YOUR BLOOD STREAM, THEY WILL DO AS USUAL, TRY TO TRANSFORM MEAT INTO SUB PRODUCTS. THE PROBLEM IS THIS TIME, IT'S YOUR OWN TISSUES THAT RISK TO BE TRANSFORMED. THIS IS THE SEPTICEMIA CONCEPT.

SOME COELIAC DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY SUFFER OF CHRONIQUE FATIGUE. IF YOU GOT A GUT THAT IS LEAKING, YOUR BODY SPEND HIS TIME REMOVING WHAT IS ANORMALY LEAKING FROM YOUR GUT BY PRODUCING ANTI-BODY, WETHER IT IS AGAINST FOOD OR AGAINST BAD BACTERIA.

ALL THIS IS WELL EXPLAINED BY DOUG KAUFMANN IN THE FUNGUS LINK

LEAKY GUT IS NOT celiac disease

LEAKY GUT LEADS TO AUTO-IMMUNE DISEASE...SUCH AS celiac disease.

Thank you so much for explaining!!!

Regarding the yogurt.... sometimes (usually in fact) after I eat it my tummy does hurt.

:unsure: I don't know any better way to describe this but here goes:

I've noticed when I eat certian foods (especially back before I got off gluten) I was always gasy & my tummy even seemed like it was too. It would always make weird noises like it was full of air trying escape.

I'm sure that was from my body not digesting gluten?

IF YOU GOT PAIN WHEN YOU EAT SOMETHING, I WOUD MAKE A 2$ ON YOUR ANTI-BODY ATTACKING, JUST LIKE WHEN YOU WHERE EATING GLUTEN.

MY ADVICE TO YOU IS TO TAKE NOTE OF WHAT HURTS AND REMOVE IT FROM YOUR DAY TO DAY DIET...MAKE SOME TEST AFTER SOME WEEKS TO SEE IF THE FOOD ALLERGY IS GONE. FOOD ALLERGY IS NOT FOR LIFE (EXCEPT FOR GLUTEN AND OTHER WASTE PROTEIN SUCH AS ASPARTAME), EVERYTHING IS SUPPOSED TO GET BACK RIGHT ON TRACK WHEN THE LEAKY GUT SYNDROME IS GOING TO BE CLEARED.

HOW TO GET RID OF THE LEAKY GUT SYNDROME, THERE IS DIFFERENT STRATEGIES...

FOR JORDAN RUBBEN AND OTHER NATUROPATHS, IT'S PROBOTICS AND EATING FERMENTED FOOD, AND FOOD AGAINST FUNGUS, CANDIDA, MOLDS...

FOR DOC MERCOLA AND DOUG KAUFMANN, IT'S THERE LOW CARB DIET, NOT THE ATKINS DIET WICH IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT LEADS YOU TO A CONDITION CALLED KETOSIS.

GAS AND WEIRD NOISE ARE CREATED BY YOUR LEAKY GUT PROBLEM AND YOUR HIGH CONSOMMATION FOR CARBO HYDRATES (SUGARS). THE MORE YOU EAT CARBS, THE MORE YOU GET GAS AND OTHER PROBLEMS.

bourbourygmi - the noisy sounds your intestines can make - is a symptom of celiac disease. if I get glutened, it happens within 4-6 hours. ;-)

Sometimes you can hear mine clear across the room!

It sounds like a thunderstorm going on in there...... The way mine feels, it reminds me of a submarine. I can sit there and it seems that the gas "breaks through" one point, I can hear it moving down to the next and then it site there until it "breaks through again". It's like a submarine with hatches opening up! I can literally visualize the gas/food, whatever, moving through my system....

Wow, I never knew that all those sounds in my stomach could be from celiac disease. My stomach is always noisy and LOUD! It's like it's constantly gurgling. That's from celiac disease?

Bourbourygmi is not unique to celiac, but it is indeed one of the symptoms.

There is a great book my neighbor loaned me and it discussed leaky gut and all the tests and symptoms of Celiac and children with Autism and learning disabilities and had great recipes in it and I believe it was called Special Diets for Special Kids I & II.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
