Could gluten sensitivity be causing neurological problems in your life?  World-renowned expert in celiac disease, autoimmunity, and the gut microbiome, Alessio Fasano, MD, a pediatric gastroenterologist at Harvard, is my guest today.  Over 2500 years ago, Hippocrates stated “All disease begins in the leaky gut” and now Dr. Fasano is helping us understand why that is true.  In 2000, he and his team discovered Zonulin, a protein that makes the gut hyperpermeable, hence the term “leaky gut. This was a major breakthrough in our understanding of health and disease.   Dr. Fasano is a  professor at Harvard Medical School as well as in the Harvard School of Nutrition. I think you will enjoy his compassion, curiosity, and humility as he shares his research journey from Naples, Italy, with us. In this interview, we discussed the following:

• Neuroinflammatory disorders related to Gluten
• GLP-1 Agonists
• Simple ways that you can improve the integrity of your gut wall
