Biomarkers included – Leaky Gut Test (Zonulin)
- Zonulin: Zonulin is a protein that regulates the permeability of tight junctions between cells in the digestive tract. It plays a key role in maintaining the intestinal barrier by controlling the passage of substances, such as nutrients and antigens, from the gut into the bloodstream. Imbalances in zonulin levels can impact gut permeability, potentially contributing to various health concerns.
How to prepare – Leaky Gut Test (Zonulin)
Avoid alcohol, probiotics, and NSAIDs (like Ibuprofen) for 48 hours prior to sample collection.
Frequently asked questions – Leaky Gut Test (Zonulin)
What do high zonulin levels mean?
High zonulin levels are a primary biomarker for increased intestinal permeability, or leaky gut. This suggests the tight junctions in your gut wall are remaining open, potentially allowing undigested food particles and toxins to enter the bloodstream, which may trigger inflammation.
How should I prepare for the stool sample?
To ensure the highest accuracy for your zonulin stool test, we recommend avoiding alcohol, NSAIDs (such as Ibuprofen), and probiotics for 48 hours before collecting your sample. Always consult with your healthcare provider before stopping any prescribed medications.
Does a high result mean I have Celiac disease?
While zonulin is frequently elevated in individuals with Celiac disease due to gluten sensitivity, a high result on this intestinal permeability test is not a standalone diagnosis for Celiac. It indicates the presence of a leaky gut, which can be caused by various factors including diet, chronic stress, or bacterial imbalance.
