In this episode of The Autoimmune RESET podcast, we explore how gluten impacts brain health, particularly for those with autoimmune diseases. 

VJ explains leaky brain syndrome, a condition where inflammation weakens the blood-brain barrier, allowing harmful molecules to affect the brain. VJ also discusses gluten's potential to trigger cross-reactivity with the cerebellum, leading to neurological symptoms such as poor coordination, brain fog, and dizziness.

Additionally, the episode clarifies the differences between coeliac disease and non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), highlighting how each condition uniquely affects the brain. We cover what it means to be "glutened" and the resulting physical, neurological, and emotional symptoms. 

Finally, we offer actionable steps for managing gluten sensitivity, improving mental health, and supporting overall brain health through diet and lifestyle adjustments.

Perfect for anyone curious about how gluten could be affecting their brain or looking to better understand the connection between diet, autoimmune health, and mental well-being.
