The Autoimmune RESET
New Study Links Gluten and Leaky Gut Syndrome As Cause of Coeliac Disease
In this episode of The Autoimmune RESET, VJ Hamilton explores the groundbreaking study by Maria G. Herrera, Maria J. Amundarain, Philipp W. Dörfler, and Veronica I. Dodero, published in *Angewandte Chemie International Edition*. The study reveals how a superantigen associated with gluten oligomerizes and increases gut permeability, shedding light on a key mechanism behind coeliac disease.
VJ discusses the implications of this discovery and its potential to pave the way for new treatments targeting the superantigen to maintain gut integrity.
In addition, VJ explores natural approaches to managing coeliac disease through diet and lifestyle changes. Learn about the essentials of a gluten-free diet, nutrient-rich foods to combat deficiencies, and the benefits of probiotics, prebiotics, and hydration.
