A fascinating finding about gluten and autoimmune diseases is that two-thirds of people who have immune reactions to gluten don’t have any intestinal manifestations. Instead, their gluten sensitivity manifests in the brain.
In the neurological literature, they’re even defining gluten sensitivity as its own neurological disease. Some researchers argue that gluten is more a brain-related inflammatory trigger than a gut-related trigger.
If you suffer from brain fog, fatigue, poor brain endurance, declining cognition, neurological autoimmunity such as MS, psychiatric conditions, or any other brain-based disorders, it’s always important to screen for an immune reaction to gluten.
This means not just screening alpha gliadin, but instead for several immune-reactive compounds in gluten as well as transglutaminase antibodies. Otherwise, you could end up with a false negative.
