Some people have sensitivities to gluten and gluten products without having celiac disease. Nonceliac gluten sensitivity may occur when a person is eating a diet with excessive gluten and gluten products or contaminated with toxins that cause leaky gut, increasing the risk that gluten protein fragments will get into the bloodstream.

Leaky gut syndrome, or increased permeability of the small intestines, is a defect in the barrier between the small intestines and the bloodstream. A little leak is normal, but when things get too leaky, it allows harmful proteins to go directly into the bloodstream without being broken down as they should. The body then looks at those escaped proteins as foreign invaders.

The same autoimmune disorders that can be traced to celiac disease have links to leaky gut syndrome. Some more minor ailments caused by leaky gut syndrome include irritability, sluggishness, tiredness, achiness, and a decline in mental acuteness.
