Celiac Disease)
How Food Immune Reactivity Contributes to Disease
When food antigens cross a compromised gut barrier and enter
circulation, they stimulate systemic immune activation.
This immune response not only creates chronic inflammation but
can also trigger or worsen autoimmune tissue damage [3,6].
Persistent exposure to reactive foods sustains low-grade
inflammation and prevents full recovery from gut, neurological,
skin, or immune system disorders.
Can Food-Related Immune Reactivity Be Reversed?
Yes, in many cases.
If reactive foods are identified early and removed from the diet,
immune activation often calms, gut barrier function improves, and
systemic inflammation decreases.
