Do your Gut Health Tests check for Leaky Gut?
Our Ultimate Gut Health Tests check for Zonulin, a marker that can indicate leaky gut.
Our Ultimate Gut Health Test looks for evidence of leaky gut through a marker called zonulin, as well as the most important digestive markers for overall digestive health.
About Leaky Gut and Zonulin
Elevated levels of zonulin indicate intestinal permeability, or leaky gut. High zonulin has been associated in medical research with metabolic syndrome, obesity, and several autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, like Celiac disease, type 1 diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
There's also evidence for a link between leaky gut and multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and inflammatory bowel disease.
