with celiac disease eats gluten, everything’s going along just fine until the gluten reaches the small intestine.

This excess of zonulin causes the junctions between cells in the small intestine to open too much, and next thing you know, there’s a party in the bloodstream and all sorts of things can get into the bloodstream that shouldn’t be there – things like toxins and gluten fragments.
When stuff leaks through the intestinal wall that normally shouldn’t be able to, it results in a condition called leaky gut syndrome.
